City-Like Patterns by Damola Rufai

What would a pattern look like if it was inspired by the hustle and bustle of city life? It might look something like Isorinths, a series of isometric patterns designed by artist Damola Rufai.

Like Piet Mondrian’s “Broadway Boogie Woogie,” which brings together the city grid of Manhattan with the music he loved to dance to, Rufai captures the maze-like nature of Lagos, Nigeria with the vibrant and colorful spirit of the city in these intricate patterns.

Rufai also drew upon personal experiences to design the series, using stylistic influences from African wax print patterns, pastel colors of South Beach, and even a popular puzzle game called Monument Valley!

Isorinths is also digitally printed on 100{b29860ee6b7af5bf99d3058cca3182816eed414b47dab251265e93b8c00e69b1} cotton fabric in 6-yard bundles, which you can preorder here.
