    The authors study the structure of the minimizers of the discrete local/nonlocal functionals considered in a series of papers by \textit{A. Giuliani} et al. [``Checkerboards, stripes, and corner energies in spin models with competing interactions'', Phys. Rev. B 84, No. 6, Article ID 064205, 10 p. (2011; \url{doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.84.064205}); Commun. Math. Phys. 331, No. 1, 333--350 (2014; Zbl 1302.82018); ibid. 347, No. 3, 983--1007 (2016; Zbl 1351.82019)] and a continuous version of it. It is shown that the conjecture that the minimizers should be periodic unions of stripes of optimal period, holds both for the discrete and continuous setting.
