Five protagonists shaping the future of textile design
Dedar reissues four textile works by Anni Albers and produces a previously unrealized design, creating five jacquard fabrics for interior design. BGGB Studio uses generative AI to imagine future animal species, presenting the tapestry "Manoscritto di Arquà" at Collectible in Brussels. Stanley Wong creates the monumental carpet "Hong Kong Walk On I" for Tai Ping, inspired by Hong Kong's ubiquitous nylon tarp. Kasthall launches its first collection of recycled wool carpets, "Fasad," designed by David Chipperfield. At Woven Whispers during Milan's Fuorisalone, Atelier La Gadoue transforms discarded men's shirts into fabric "stained glass," Emma Cogné weaves plastic cable sheaths on trampoline frames, and Mathilde Wittock creates tapestries from plant roots.
