SACRED GEOMETRY - DESIGN, CONSTRUCT & DECORATE YOUR OWN PLATONIC SOLID MODELS WITH JON ALLEN

In this 2 day course you will be introduced to the roots of the art/science of Geometry by making 3D models of the Platonic and Archimedean solids.

These amazing and fundamental geometric and creation forms were known in the Neolithic period, showing sophisticated geometry was already in use in the construction of stone ‘circles’.

The geometry and ratios deriving from these platonic and archimedean forms underpin all great architecture, design, crafts and decoration.

We will be designing, constructing and adorning our own Geometric models from paper using and referencing source material from Keith Critchlow’s studio contents in South West London.

Have fun and explore the underpinning forms of creation with a small group over this 2 day course.

This course is for all levels, no previous experience is necessary.
