Design Description

This design celebrates pioneering scientists and engineers such as Rosalind Franklin, whose research helped lead to the discovery of DNA, and Ada Lovelace, who aided in the development of early computing technology. The patterns take their cue from Art Deco ceramics and fabric, but also incorporate symbols and images from the sciences.
