Course Summary

In this studio course, you will explore a range of textile construction techniques, including knit, weave, and other fibre-based construction methods to develop new textile forms.
Building on your foundational knowledge of textile construction, you will develop advanced technical skills while exploring the relationships between textile surface and form, objects, spaces, and experiences.
You will engage with both traditional and contemporary approaches to textile design through investigation of materials, structures, colour, texture, and finishing processes, applied to your chosen context.
Through material exploration, hands-on experimentation with both hand and machine processes and iterative design development, you will create 2D and 3D outcomes that demonstrate your conceptual and technical abilities.
This course is a component of the major in Textile and Material Design offered in BP326P26 Bachelor of Fashion Sustainability.
