Creational Design Patterns

Creational design patterns focus on handling object creation mechanisms where objects are created in a manner suitable for the situation we're working in. The basic approach to object creation might otherwise lead to added complexity in a project whilst these patterns aim to solve this problem by controlling the creation process.
Some of the patterns that fall under this category are: Constructor, Factory, Abstract, Prototype, Singleton and Builder.

Classical House Plans

Classically inspired -- also called Neoclassical house plans -- reference the architecture of ancient Greece and Rome with columns, pediments and ornament such as egg-and-dart moulding. The Colonial Revival, Greek Revival, Neo Classical, Southern Colonial styles are all derived from Classical precedents and use Classical features to varying degrees. This collection includes a range of Classically-inspired home plans to illustrate how the style has been used in residential architecture.

Product Design

• 
• A Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications product.
• Style-Up is a trademark of Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications.

Body colors and interchangeable panels for this phone were developed to strike a chord with our senses by representing essential qualities. Style-Up® panels in previous models gave the handsets greater visual impact, and enabling users to add their choice of fragrance ("essential oils," so to speak) was another step in the evolution of the series. The OLED sub display, seemingly floating in a lid colored by vapor deposition, is a design detail that conveys an upscale image.
