Fashion design is about reflecting how people live, act, and behave. By designing the functions and expressions of clothing and other products and artefacts related to the body, fashion designers can explore, develop, and propose new possibilities. This can range from diversification and freedom of expression from a social and cultural sustainability perspective to the development of clothing that enables, contributes to, and shapes different human activities in, for example, sports, outdoors, or work.

Design, textile materials, and challenging existing textile techniques are in focus in the Bachelor’s programme in Textile Design. With knowledge in textile construction techniques and the latest research in materials and fibres, you can experiment with how these materials could be designed and used in a number of projects. Also, sustainability is a foundational aspect for students in every design project.
