Textile Design

About this course

Textile design is the creative discipline concerned with the design and development of fabrics and surface patterns for fashion, interiors, and technical applications. It sits at the intersection of art and craft, drawing on colour theory, material knowledge, and pattern construction alongside an understanding of the industries and markets that use textiles. Designers in this field work with woven, knitted, printed, and embroidered fabrics, and increasingly with digital and sustainable design processes that are transforming how textiles are conceived and produced. At Nottingham Trent University in Nottingham, this three-year full-time degree develops your creative and technical abilities in a department with strong industry connections and a reputation for producing graduates who go directly into practice. You will study colour, pattern, and surface design, weave and knit construction,
