Modularity is hardly a new concept. It has transformed architecture, furniture and industrial design for decades. Applying it to soft textiles, however, opens an entirely different conversation.

Smart Textile Design – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS


We have always been driven by creativity and curiosity. Our practice evolves through prototypes, never finished, always asking more questions of materials, processes and possibilities.

STUDIO ALICE GIELEN – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS

THREADED PROTOCOLS – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS


Threaded Protocols is not a textile innovation in the commercial sense, nor a digital tool disguised as craft. What makes the work distinct is its material investigation into how computational logic originates in textile practice and what is lost when those logics are abstracted into opaque technological systems.

Living Matter: Bio-Luxury for Future Materials


Indigo, a colour with a lot of history, is the main focus of this project. Denim has always meant strength and durability, and its roughness is linked to work and usefulness.

BIOTEXFUTURE: How to Make Textiles from Fossils


The program is a group of businesses and universities working together to find scalable, bio-based alternatives.

Wetlands Matters – by Marc Wijkmans


Wijkman’s idea came from a simple but important observation: animals carry seeds across ecosystems in their fur.

Heliotex – Studio Pauline van Dongen
