While staying at a friend’s home in Seattle, there was a drawing of poppies in a vase which hung over the bed. Every evening and every morning I would look at the drawing and I started to think about how to recreate it in code. Using very simple mathematical rules to control randomness of size, placement, and curvature of the “stems”, I created a program which automatically creates bouquets of poppies. Like their natural counterparts, each one is special and unique. This design is a single iteration of the software but please visit my site for more information or to request your own one-of-a-kind piece.
