Description
Textile Design Theory in the Making explores the intersection of art, design, and craft in textile design. By examining how textiles bridge decorative and functional realms, from handcrafting to industrial manufacture, this book establishes textiles as a distinct design discipline. The book delves into contemporary design research, demonstrating how design theory is applied in diverse scenarios to foster innovation beyond traditional design fields. Drawing on qualitative research methods, including auto-ethnography and feminist critique, it provides a theoretical foundation for textile designers working in interdisciplinary settings. This book offers a unique perspective on the relationship between theory and practice in textile design, uniting insights from anthropology, philosophy, literature, and material design to inform the work of designers.
