Specify objects to create using a prototypical instance, then create new instances of this prototype

The Prototype Pattern

Ensure a class only has one instance and provide a global access point to it.

The Singleton Pattern

Define an interface for creating an object, but let subclasses decide which to instantiate.

The Factory Pattern

Separate the construction of a complex object from its representation so that the same process can create different representations.

The Builder Pattern
