Abstract
This study explores the interdisciplinary integration of artistic design and nanotechnology in the development of a coordinated textile set consisting of an eye mask, a cap, and a pillowcase. The research emphasized creative design processes inspired by natural forms such as shells, butterflies, sunflowers, and leaves, employing diverse approaches to form, color, and symbolism. Initial sketches and conceptual drafts were refined through academic feedback, resulting in selected designs that balanced aesthetic originality with functionality. To enhance user comfort and health-related performance, cotton fabrics were treated with nano-strontium particles through ultrasonic processing, producing hypoallergenic properties while maintaining the softness and integrity of the textile. Experimental evaluation using the Winter standard confirmed an 86% improvement in the anti-allergic properties of the treated cotton samples. These results highlight the effectiveness of nano-strontium as a functional additive, while the creative designs demonstrated how everyday textile products can be transformed into expressive and symbolic objects. The findings suggest that combining artistic innovation with advanced material treatments offers a pathway for developing textile products that simultaneously address well-being, usability, and aesthetic value. This research therefore contributes to the growing discourse on interdisciplinary textile design, illustrating the potential of merging technology and creativity to meet contemporary human needs.
