Abstract: Physical and aesthetic factors are the basic elements in fabric design. Physical factors include structural elements, such as raw materials, yarn, and fabric properties, while aesthetic factors involve color, shape, and texture. Since physical and aesthetic factors influence each other and the final product, fabric design should take an integrated approach. The aim of this study is to explain mathematical design theory from both aesthetic and physical design perspectives to reveal the interrelationships of aesthetic and physical factors. The process began with a definition of the fabric's intended use and theme. This was followed by motif development, surface design, and the creation and sizing of design units. The fabric's mass per unit area was also defined, based on its intended application. The design problem was then solved mathematically, incorporating aesthetic and physical factors while considering constraints and assumptions. Three different motifs and eight surface compositions were developed. Designs were calculated for 44 fabrics, each with two weave types and two setting options. These calculations were revised according to production possibilities, and the 44 fabrics were produced based on relevant production parameters. Finally, the aesthetic and physical properties of the woven fabrics were analyzed. These calculations are valuable for designers and engineers to examine the relationship between aesthetic and structural factors before production. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
