Product Details
Overview
A glorious global survey of 200 of the most notable textile designers from around the world, spanning the eighteenth century to the present day, from Josef Frank to Aïssa Dione, Laura Ashley to Nathalie Du Pasquier
Creating Patterns is a kaleidoscopic guide to 200 innovative and influential textile designers and their work. This fascinating, visually inspiring book showcases a wealth of outstanding textiles alongside fascinating stories about their creators.
Bringing together more than 200 stunning images, insightful texts, and a carefully curated selection of designers from across the world, this is an essential resource for design, interior design, and fashion students and professionals, as well as any creative thinker.
Readers will discover textiles by designers across the ages and around the globe, from William Morris’s now iconic fabrics of the 1870s and Maija Isola’s bold work for Marimekko in the 1960s to Verner Panton’s psychedelic 1970s textiles and Paul Smith’s instantly recognizable stripes, alongside many rarely discovered gems by immensely talented but lesser-known designers.
Organized alphabetically by designer, the juxtaposition of works from page-to-page forms unusual pairings that invite a fresh and exciting means of appreciation.
With absorbing commentaries by Susan Brown, the Cooper Hewitt’s Acting Head of Textiles, Creating Patterns reveals how textiles are a powerful means for storytelling and cultural expression.
