Description

Inspired by the design theories of the Bauhaus and De Stijl the goal of Sameness is to celebrate variety and interpretation through common elements of line and color.

“The sameness,” as originally named by Lois Lowry, suggests a social balance through the rules of order and structure. All of life’s pain and spontaneity disappear through a rigid architecture of overwhelming conformity.

Fuller’s and Usadel’s version of “the sameness” suggests a similar new world order using modernist art and design fundamentals (following in the footsteps of such legendary influences as the Bauhaus and De Stijl), but rather than striving to eradicate imperfections we seek to celebrate variety and interpretation through common elements of line and color.
