  1. 1. Relational Textiles for Space Design: design methods and expressions

    Författare :Delia Dumitrescu; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; knitted structures; architectural design; interactive textiles;

    Sammanfattning : The emergence of the Smart Textiles field opens possibilities for designersto combine traditional surface fabrication techniques with advancedtechnology in the design process. When it comes to the field of SmartTextiles as interactive materials for space design, it is essential to understandthe identity of the material through design and also to understand the novelexpressions being mediated for space.

  3. 2. Textile architecture informed by wind

    Författare :Erica Hörteborn; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Textiles; Research by design; Textile architecture; Kinetic architecture; Lightweight structures; Wind; Geometric expression; Knitted textiles;

    Sammanfattning : Textiles in architecture is a field of great potential, which are worth to explore further. This thesis aims to show that the flexibility of the textile material could be better included in the architectural design, allowing it to adapt to forces, such as the wind, and viewing motion as a positive design feature.

  4. 3. Knitted architecture and wind: Designing loosely fitted architectural textiles for interaction with wind

    Författare :Erica Hörteborn; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Textile architecture; Knitted textiles; Wind performance; Wind; Research by design; Kinetic architecture; Geometric expression; Wind simulation; Architectural design;

    Sammanfattning : Utilising the textile’s ability to adapt to external forces such as the wind could lead to the creation of new design expressions and functional features within architecture. Prompted by architectural potentials of textiles deliberately designed to move and flex, this thesis aims to explore and demonstrate how such knitted textiles could contribute to enriched aesthetic expression and improved performance of architectural elements placed in windy environments.

  5. 4. Designing for changeability in textiles

    Författare :Riikka Talman; Hanna Landin; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Textiles and Fashion Design ; Textil och mode konstnärlig ;

    Sammanfattning : The tendency to wear out and change is inherent in most materials, yet textiles are usually designed to retain a single expression. Within an experimental, practical work, materials that are inherently changeable were used to create woven and knitted structures in order to approach textiles from the perspective of changeability and explore what this might mean for the field of textile design.

  7. 5. Exploring textiles as materials for interaction design

    Författare :Anna Persson; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; interaction; design; textiles; materials; Textiles and fashion; Textiles and Fashion General ; Textil och mode generell ;

    Sammanfattning : As computational technology and new materials enter the world of textiles, our view on textile materials is challenged. Textile interaction design suggests a new design space in which the fields of textile design and interaction design are merged. LÄS MER
