A short German-language article by Romanus Schmehlik on how artists can generate textile patterns by drawing on nature and everyday objects and transforming them with physical-optical aids such as repetition and reflection. It argues that this saves an artist's creative capacity and yields designs for carpets, damask, curtains, embroidery and printing. Six halftone figures show example patterns (bands, lattices, medallions); the author does not describe the methods in detail for lack of space.
