Abstract
An investigation of surface decoration and tailoring techniques: Exploring the use of ‘Biotex’ and other materials in the design of products and accessories.
Building on the previous investigative projects; ‘IMPUMFAID’ and ‘Biofurniture’ this research project will look at how surface pattern, tailoring techniques and low-cost consolidation methods may be applied to the material ‘Biotex’ and how the resulting developments may be exploited via the designing of fashion products and accessories.
‘Green to Gold’ is broken into 3 work packages:
Developing multiple surface pattern options for ‘Biotex’ and other fabric composite materials
Exploring the use of CNC pattern cutting techniques as a method for cutting successive layers of ‘Biotex’ allowing more complex shapes to be achieved than current processing allows for
Exploring low-cost ‘localised’ consolidation techniques that negate the need for large expensive tool making
