Testing beyond the studio, the workshop of tools and weaving crafts

Testing beyond the studio, the workshop of tools and weaving crafts

Britta, Kalkreuter; Lucy, Robertson

Full paper:

The traditional value of textile crafts is present in historical and contemporary culture, heritage and innovation; at the same time, it has gained attention to drive the future design development. Instead of focusing on innovation in materials, techniques, and tools in the weaving process, this study develops a powerful new way to interact with material knowledge. The researcher created an innovative learning approach by developing taxonomy features on the heritage and innovation of textile production. Those tools were tested through the workshop to understand the potential of those materials outside studio. This paper discusses a workshop method used to evaluate a new research tool with the general public. Through recording and analysing the various stakeholder engagement styles and outcomes this study investigates how these could inform the future design while safeguarding traditional knowledge with innovative learning approaches.
