Program Description

This course explores the fabric of the world around us - from wallpaper and soft furnishings to transport upholstery and luxury fashion. The curriculum will give you the practical, digital and professional skills required to become a designer in the contemporary global textile market.You can specialise in one of four areas – mixed media, print, knit or weave – and will explore the key applications of fashion, interior and lifestyle.

  • Mixed media focuses on creating contemporary collections using embroidery and embellishment to build up surfaces.
  • Print explores the translation of imagery onto textile surfaces with the inventive use of screen printing and dyeing processes.
  • Knit and weave concentrate on developing innovative textile structures through yarn and fibres.
Employability skills are embedded into the curriculum, alongside opportunities to work on live briefs set by industry experts and take part in prestigious competitions. Our expert teaching team will encourage you to take dynamic approaches to textile design that will influence the future of the industry and you will graduate as a forward-thinking, responsible designer.Key features
