Abstract

Stripes are in this study viewed in light of Friedrich Schiller's concepts of human three basic foundations in form; formwork, fabric operation and play mode. Schiller's theoretical concepts are used to focus on research into form in relation to human urge for, and desire to shape. By showing concrete examples of stripes materialized in different ways in art and design, stripes are expanded as typology of showing examples of bonding stripes, monomane stripes, stripes such as timesheets, stripes and materiality, traffic streaks, marking stripes, brand streaks , braided stripes, romance stripes, strips like optical illusions, organic stripes, hybrid stripes and even stripes. The study shows the connection from aesthetic practice to pattern formation in qualitative research methods. The study shows how Schiller's concepts may be relevant to create a better understanding of the value of aesthetic research.
