English term or phrase: ALLOVER AGAIN
Without doubt patterns are an issue in design, art and architecture. Crockery is striped, gumboots are spotted, sofas floral. In fashion circles deliberate harking back to the fabrics of the 1970s seems de rigeur and firms which produce patterned wallpapers to suit their clients' wishes and offer one-off items insted of woodfibre paper are enjoying increasing demand. Artists are discovering the principle of *allover again*, whilst renowned New York galleries do not hesiate to show the early work of a pioneer.

Come posso tradurre il principio *allover again*?

Grazie mille!

disegno/motivo "allover" /"all-over" ancora una volta


Explanation:
sono piuttosto perplessa della spiegazione dato da Gaetano, per quanto sia bello, perché la parola d'origine è una sola - non "all over", ma "allover", e per me questo si riferisce al tipo di disegno; sarebbe un motivo che si ripete in continuazione. E in italiano vedo che si usa semplicemente "all over" ma mi immagino che si possa anche dire motivi ripetuti o qualcosa del genere
