Claude Fayette Bragdon was an American architect, writer, and stage designer based in New York from the 1890s to the 1930s. In 1915 he created “projective ornament”; a system of geometric patterns designed to serve as a universal form-language integrating not only architecture, art, and design, but also a society divided by differences of class, gender, religion, culture, and national origin. Spreading across the surfaces of buildings, posters, books, and the settings Bragdon designed for massive community singing festivals, projective ornament came to symbolize the progressive potential of modernity for thousands of Americans.
