Abstract
The chapter explains a new design methology. On the basis of prehistoric textile products and their cultural design, the smallest units, fabric patterns, the most diverse types of fabric, enmeshment and cross-linking, new arrangements of yarn systems into new one-, two-, or multi-dimensional structures, relationships, systems and networks, how things interrelate with each other is depicted. The method relies on the recognition of patterns and relationships from all possible disciplines, whether textile, architecture, interior design, urban planning, mobility, social media, or social society, which can then be used holistically and sustainably for all complex questions of life and space. On the basis of abstract concepts, attention is trained for units and made available for New ones. This enables completely new perspectives in an ever more complex, social, and societally changing world. The examples and design approaches presented in the chapter concentrate primarily on process development and the associated holistic approaches.
