NEW DESIGNERS 2020 - THE UNIVERSITY OF BOLTON: BA (Hons) Textiles and Surface Design

Our programme is a focused multi-disciplinary course where strengths lie in surface design and textile application; exploring traditional techniques including embroidery, printed textiles, felted textiles and non-wovens; and the use of digital technologies towards interior products, fabrics, wall coverings and fashion fabrics for both commercial and design-led/craft sectors. In terms of design practice, our students have opportunities to ‘cross the boundaries’ of textile disciplines and many have gained national prestigious awards to recognise their innovative approaches to designing and making.
