The cage and the strip cause mixed feelings. They have charm and naivety, but there is also the rigidity of the geometry, according to the laws of which they live. In this duality is the source of the infinite variety of cellular-striped patterns. Designers armed themselves with a ruler - a tool of the season, and it turned out that you can “stretch” anything from window glass to sofa upholstery Puffs and rollers covered with "homespun" striped fabric - folklore motifs sound not only in fashion, but also in the interior [1]. Strips on the walls - the purity of design ideas and its expression [2]. You should not understand the idea of ​​a cell too literally, and then you can even “draw” a window with a grid - this is relevant, and it also pleasantly resembles a child’s classic game [3]. The same net, only “painted” on the fashionable skin of a pony - this is what the new version of the ever-young “tartan” looks like [4]. Complicate the problem: the number of bars increases, each broad consists of several small [5], work - only manual [6], the coloring is the brightest possible [7]. "Striped" can be very diverse. For example, stripes are a great way to emphasize the elegant shape of objects: for example, vases and decorative dishes. [8]. But there are less "serious" options - such as Ritzenhoff's "striped" plates from the Amore Mio collection. [9]. "Striped" oriental-style pillows are a long tradition, and they are also very relevant. [10]. The cell itself is already a style, the more "chess" version [11]. The essence of this style is transparent, especially when it comes to glassblock cells [12]. Наконец, победитель в номинации "самые практичные полоски": стенка из войлока Soft Wall, B&B Italia [13].
