Slow Textiles...

I have been reading their philosophy, and its quite interesting, its not specific to anyones work, but there is that mention of collaboration... lots of ideas about originality is a key focus and helping to;


show that there is a wealth of different ways in which we can go about building long-lasting environmental and social quality through the design, production and use of fashion and textiles that go beyond traditional ideas or expectations


It's quite a design based group, but I thought it fit in quite well/ complimented what we are doing, we are being quite science-y, experimenting and inventing -growing, making and using new materials, a project, where we all seem to be looking to express and represent something quite inventive as a group.

It thought it was just quite a nice example of a design philosophy, and there are quite a few interesting projects on the site. The slow movement in general is something that is worth a look too!
