Nobel Textiles: Marrying Design to Scientific Discovery
August 17, 2008 | Levent OZLER
What do you get when you pair a scientific researcher with a textile designer?
Designers fundamentally shape the way we live, while scientists pervade the very fabric of our lives.
Nobel Textiles involves a journey into the interface between science and design, a dialogue between leading researchers in both fields.
Textile Design Fellows from Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design are liaising with Nobel prize-winning life scientists to develop textiles that respond to scientific discovery and celebrate and communicate the interaction between science and design.
Nobel Textiles will be exhibited as part of London's Design Festival at the Institute of Contemporary Arts and Saint James' Park from September 14 to 21.
