~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Her work in modern design included the concepts of geometric abstraction, the integration of furniture, fabrics, wall coverings, and clothing. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Her most important artistic contribution is the concept of "simultaneous" design. This includes the concept of Orphism that one design when placed next to another affects both; this is similar to the theory of colors (e.g., Georges Seurat) next to each other are "mixed" by the eye and affect each other. She is arguably the inventor of the polka dot, as well as the use of zig-zags and other innovative designs in fabric, clothing, and home furnishing. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
