The design is influenced by a period of German and Austrian history near 1815-1848. The process of uniting three or more like materials by tying them together in bunches. A design representing a study in the structure, properties and processes of plant life. The life cycle of the roots, leaves, and flowers, may be portrayed. A collection of like materials placed so closely together in a design that quantity, shape or number cannot be determined.
Materials lose individual identity and function more as a group in their impact.
An example might be the use of berries, fruits, or flowers removed from their natural branch. A large area within a design which captures the eye of the viewer. A single, usually central point in a design from which design materials radiate, and toward which the eye of the observer is drawn. This usually is used to focus attention on the subject with the frame of branches, foliage, or flowers. The use of floral materials in expressive, non traditional applications.
