Pattern Science is our exploration of how the way filaments are linked and interlaced can determine how a material behaves. By changing the geometry of a pattern, we can influence stretch, stability, flexibility, conformity, density, and movement without relying solely on added materials or complicated construction. Each pattern creates its own system of balanced tensions, allowing the structure to respond as a unified whole. It is where the ancient logic of lace-making meets modern technology—and where we continue to discover how much function can be created simply through pattern.

What is Patterning
What we've learned over the years is that patterning is so much more than just the loops of a knit or the interlacements of a weave. We've learned that every...
