Riassunto

An ancient design system, taught a new way.

The kolam is a design system — one of the oldest in the world. A grid of dots, a line that weaves around them, and a few simple rules that every kolam keeps: every line closes, and every shape holds exactly one pulli. Every morning in Tamil Nadu it is drawn by hand on the doorstep, and drawn again tomorrow.

This book takes that traditional art form and teaches it with modern methods. Every kolam was generated and checked by software built on the geometry of its rules, then broken into clear, step-by-step lessons — from a first handful of dots to single, unbroken lines that wind through more than a hundred pulli.

• 40 kolams, arranged from beginner to advanced
• Boosts creativity while building a feel for maths: symmetry, geometry, patterns, counting and logic
• Step-by-step drawings for every kolam - the dots first, then each line in the order a hand draws it
• Square and triangular grids: diamonds, crosses, hexagons, stars and single-line sikku kolams
• Every design keeps the traditional rules: every line closes, and every shape holds exactly one pulli (dot)
• Practice dot grids to draw on
