Abstract: This research presents a methodically consistent creative act related to the digitization of planar pictorial images. After the transformation based on the modular grids, completely new images are created—different from their original source. The successful solutions found in this way are applicable to various areas of graphic and product design. Multiple experiments were conducted in a digital environment on the same image applied to different material carriers in relation to the function of the product—different types of textiles and paper. To more accurately describe the experiments, three-dimensional realistic shapes from different materials have been created, onto which the modular designs have been applied. The report provides a methodical modular principle of thinking and action, justified by the applied results of the set experiment. The experiment was conducted and directly implemented under a scientific research project for an R&DS (The Research and Development Sector) project (Agrmt. 241XTД0006-06) at the Technical University, Sofia. The study involved three students from the Engineering Design Department, as well as the authors of this article—all supporters of the creative principle.
