Textiles connect a variety of practices and traditions, ranging
from the refined couture garments of Parisian fashion to the
high-tech filaments strong enough to hoist a satellite into space.
High-performance fabrics are being reconceived as immersive webs,
structural networks and information exchanges, and their ability to
interface with technology is changing how the human body is
experienced and how the urban environment is built. Today, textiles
reveal their capacity to transform our world more than any other
material. "Textile Futures" highlights recent works from key
practitioners and examines the changing role of textiles. Recent
developments present new technical possibilities that are beginning
to redefine textiles as a uniquely multidisciplinary field of
innovation and research. This book is an important tool for any
textile practitioner, fashion designer, architect, interior
designer or student designer interested in following new
developments in the field of textiles, seeking new sustainable
sources, or just eager to discover new works that reveal the
potency of textiles as an ultramaterial.
