The fashion and textile scholar Kerstin Kraft extends the arc in her article “Die Strukturation der Welt – People Need Patterns”, well beyond the nature of textiles and points out that “[for humankind] pattern recognition and pattern production serve as a means of structuring and appropriating the world”. Franziska Müller-Reissmann looks at the different meanings of patterns in “Muster als Model – Samples and Patterns”, based on the sample collection at the Zurich University of the Arts, and explains that patterns can be both “spatial” and “reproductive” – a repeated decoration in a physical location, or a part of a larger whole that they exemplify. Furthermore, the managing director of Ein Steinhaus, Karl Dresen, and Lisa Beyer and Antonia Roth from Beyer Roth Weis reveal all about the importance of show homes and their interior designs. Various examples also illustrate the diverse functions of patterns.
