Abstract

Industrieel erfgoed is hip. Fabrieksgebouwen, ketelhuizen, machinekamers en loodsen krijgen nieuwe bestemmingen. De oude constructies krijgen daardoor een nieuw jasje. Dat weet het Gentse Industriemuseum – het vroegere MIAT –maar al te goed. Daarom organiseert het in 2021 de expo ‘Kathedralen van de Industrie’. Daarin worden enkele tientallen industriële textielsites uit Gent in hun oude én hun nieuwe jas getoond. Foto’s uit de jaren 70 en 80 worden vergeleken met foto’s van nu, mét tekst en uitleg. Zwart-wit van toen wordt vergeleken met kleur van nu. De herontdekking van een prachtig stuk erfgoed wordt geëvoceerd in dit heerlijke boek. Fotograaf Alexander Dumarey is huisfotograaf bij VRT NWS en bekend van ‘Markante plekken’ en ‘Op reis met Vlaamse meesters’.

Abstract

Het intrigerende verhaal over de rol die textiel heeft gespeeld in de geschiedenis van de mens: van de Egyptische mummies en de zijderoutes tot astronautenpakken.Textiel - natuurlijk en door mensenhanden gemaakt - heeft de wereld waarin we leven veranderd, bepaald en vormgegeven. We zijn omringd door stoffen. Bij onze geboorte worden we erin gewikkeld, we slapen tussen de lakens, en elke ochtend kleden we ons aan om de wereld tegemoet te treden.De gouden draad onthult het verborgen rijke leven van stoffen, de rijke historie en de fascinerende verhalen. In dertien hoofdstukken beziet Kassia St Clair de beschaving en haar creativiteit: van de mummies uit het oude Egypte, de zijden mantels uit het Chinese keizerrijk en het katoen uit India dat de aanzet gaf tot de industriële revolutie (en tot meer dan één oorlog) en zelfs de in een laboratorium ontworpen vezels die het mogelijk maakten dat astronauten op de maan konden lopen. Aan de hand van stoffen vertelt ze een ongelooflijke en inspirerende geschiedenis van menselijk vernuft en daadkracht.(https://www.meulenhoff.nl/producten/de-gouden-draad-9789029093330)

It is organized into five main parts: fiber and yarn technology; textile technology; construction technology; life cycle strategies; and materials appendix. This book is a complete overview of the life cycle of textile and fashion manufacturing, from the spinning of yarn to recycling. All the processes feature detailed step-by-step case studies showing the process in manufacture at a leading international supplier. The appendix features essential knowledge on over sixty natural and synthetic materials. With around 1,400 specially commissioned photographs and technical illustrations, this is the indispensable, reliable, convenient, and highly accessible practical reference for all textile and fashion designers.

Abstract

In 1940, Hans Knoll founded a company in New York that soon earned a reputation for its progressive line of furniture. Florence Schust joined the firm and helped establish its interior design division, the Knoll Planning Unit. In 1947, the year after their marriage, Hans and Florence Knoll added a third division, Knoll Textiles, which brought textile production in line with a modern sensibility that used color and texture as primary design elements. In the early years, the company hired leading proponents of modern design as well as young, untried designers to create textile patterns. The division thrived in the late 1940s through 1960s and, in the following decade, adopted a more international outlook as design direction shifted to Europe. In the late 1970s and 1980s, Knoll tapped fashion designers and architects to bolster its brand. The pioneering use of new materials and a commitment to innovative design have remained Knoll's hallmarks to the present day. With essays by experts, biographies of about eighty designers, and images of textiles, drawings, furniture, and ephemera, Knoll Textiles, 1945-2010 is the first comprehensive study devoted to a leading contributor to modern textile design. Highlighting the individuals and ideas that helped shape Knoll Textiles over the years, this book brings the Knoll brand and the role of textiles in the history of design to the forefront of public attention.

Abstract

Futurotextiel - eind 2008 verschenen naar aanleiding van de gelijknamige tentoonstelling - is meer dan zomaar een tentoonstellingscatalogus. Het boek biedt biedt een overzichtelijke kijk op de originele, innovatieve en kwalitatieve oplossingen die de traditionele textielsector vandaag te bieden heeft. De talrijke ontwerpen van designers, kunstenaars, bedrijven, laboratoria en hogescholen die in de tentoonstelling aan bod komen, geven ons een zicht op hoe de uitgebreide mogelijkheden en innovatieve materialen van de hedendaagse textielsector ten volle benut worden. Textiel is immers terug te vinden in tal van toepassingen, gaande van kledij, tapijten en gordijnen tot fietsen, auto's en zelfs de medische sector. Kunst, wetenschap, technologie, design en architectuur vloeien hier moeiteloos in elkaar over en weerspiegelen zo de dynamiek van deze sector.

Abstract

Soft Shells is a follow-up title to Sophia Vyzoviti’s bestselling books, Folding Architecture and Supersurfaces. Where Folding Architecture explored folding as a design method in architecture, and Supersurfaces showed experiments in a fusion design field between product design, fashion and architecture, the new Soft Shells investigates textile as a retro-novel architectural device which is porous and deployable. The book is lavishly illustrated with form experiments and has three essays that provide the reader with a state-of-the-art context for the architectural discourse on formgenerative surface.
