Textile designers create two-dimensional
designs that can be produced in a design which is repeated
for commercial or artistic use. They often work in knit,
weave and print. Their designs may be used in the production
of fabrics or textile products. Textile designers may
specialize in soft furnishings or fashion fabrics, sometimes
working in both areas. They may also work in related
fields, especially those where a design repeat is part
of the process of production, for example wrapping paper,
packaging, greetings cards, ceramics or floor or wall
coverings. Textile Designers should be innovative and
resourceful. They must follow strict budget and deadline
schedules and maintain up-to-date knowledge of fashion
trends with relation to fabrics. |
