| dc.description.abstract | AI-GENERATED ABSTRACT: Abstract: The history of fabrics in architecture, as theorized by Gottfried Semper, highlights the intimate connection between dressing the human body and constructing shelters with textiles. Contemporary artists, like Do Ho Suh, further explore this correlation, considering architecture as clothing and vice versa. Despite the historical intertwining of textiles and architecture, recent developments in textile technology have reignited interest in their relevance to contemporary architecture. This thesis focuses on the artistic use of textiles in interior architecture, drawing inspiration from contemporary textile artists. Examining the spatial qualities of textile art, the research aims to promote the reutilization of textiles as space-defining elements in interior architecture. While literature recognizes the connection between textiles and architecture, the thesis aims to fill a gap by exploring the artistic development of textile use in interior architecture and presenting insights for implementation. Keywords: Textiles, Architecture, Interior Space, Gottfried Semper, Do Ho Suh, Bradley Quinn, Contemporary Art, Spatial Qualities, Interior Architecture, Textile Technology | en |
