Pattern Design

Ancient Egypt is very famous for their pattern design. They used it everywhere. Pillars, walls, vases, anything you could see.

I did a quick research and realised that they used the elements that could be seen everyday in their lives to do the pattern design, like flower, feather, cobra, cow... e.t.c.
Set match pattern and square repeat are the ways that widely used by them in the pattern design.

Hathor

Hathor, too is an element that was widely used in Ancient Egypt. You can always see it on the pillars.
(Hathor is an Ancient Egyptian goddess who personified the principles of love, beauty, music, motherhood and joy.She was one of the most important and popular deities throughout the history of Ancient Egypt. )

This is a pattern design using Hathor's image.

Scarab

Scarab is another element that widely used on wall paintings, jewelry... e.t.c.  It was a very popular amulet in Ancient Egypt and I guess this is why you can see it anyway. To protect the sons of Ra.

Scarab's pattern design.

Here are some pattern designs I've found.  Most of them are like using papyrus or other plants.

These designs are full of colours and all of the elements are wisely arranged. They don't look messy. If I have a house when I grown up, I'll probably use one of the design for my wall paper. :)
