The CENTER

Return to Mother Nature's first principle of beauty–strong living centers. A unifying focus, like a nucleus, gives life to the whole. An animated, vital, positive living center can be supported by other smaller strong centers. A strong living center is a magnet for the natural rhythmic movement of the human eye. The primary universal pattern of motion for the human eye roams around a figure eight, with our eyes always returning to the center. Keep in mind, this figure-eight pattern is horizontal, lying down on its side, like the sign for infinity.
