   Upholstery textile design is considered the most important consuming products in our country for its Values functional and expediency in addition to its aesthetic values to show the nation’s identity in general and Iraqi in a particular way decorated by some cultural intellectual artistic way which are symbolic and shape icons transferred from one generation to another to a specific community or specific family which are called (memetic). The first chapter consists of the research problem: What are the shapeless memetic text in upholstery cloth design? Whereas the importance of our present research appears in revealing the cognition bases that the designer depends on achieving the shapeless text. Also clarify the rule of the shapeless units of upholstery textile. This research aims at recognizing the shapeless units of intellectual and artistic upholstery textile that transferred from one generation to another by (memetic science) and put suggestions to those unknown shape text.
