In the Fall 2007, another group of 2d Digital Design students have completed the Digital Carpet Project.
Here are some of their designs, and their reflections on the project:
This original design by Amara Barthelemy has a traditional, folk art symmetry.
This carpet by Jane Olila has a more contemporary, asymmetrical design.
Art Education students at UMD developed art lessons to integrate the Tulip and Arabesque curriculum into projects with elementary and middle school classes.
