Textiles Today:A Global Survey of Trends and Traditions by Chlo Colchester
This survey of contemporary textiles from around the world reveals a field that is very diverse, exciting and provocative. Extraordinary technological developments, from colour-changing, light-sensitive camouflage to emergency shelters of cement-impregnated fabric bonded to inflatable plastic, are included alongside the simply beautiful, such as Eley Kishimoto's patterns, or the astonishing colours of Morphotex, a fibre that produces changes in colour from blue to purple, red and green. This dazzlingly fresh sourcebook of original and inspiring designs will appeal to designers and homecrafters throughout the world.
Chloe Colchester is the author of the highly successful and groundbreaking The New Textiles.
