On June 11th, MoA Member Christiane Sauer will contribute to a Weaving Study Day organized by the Material Culture Forum at the University of Cambridge (UK). Her talk will explore textile potentials for a novel design approach. The hierarchical structure of fibre, yarn, fabric offers multiple possibilities to »program« a surface for specific performance in an applied context. Experimental prototyping and bio-inspired design become the base for resilient and adaptive structures that examine the boundaries between softness and rigidity, between material and shape, and between functionality and structure.
