Description

This course tracks the evolution of a textile design from sketch, design brief, concept development to sampling and final commercial production. It examines weave, stitch and print design processes at studio and industry level covering professional presentations, "colourways", client requirements, studios equipment and sources of inspiration. Industry visits will enable students to see the work of professional textile designers involved in the fashion, home wares & interior design industries, offering excellent insights into career possibilities in textile design. The course will cover the historical evolution of textile design and techniques and consider techniques currently used commercially including screen printing, roller printing, digital design development and direct digital printing onto fabric. Students will develop their own designs for printed textiles to set briefs, relating to fashion or furnishing fabrics.
