It’s what’s on top that counts.
Textile/surface design is the art of changing the appearance of natural and synthetic surfaces by the application of traditional, stylized, digitized, and illusionary techniques to embellish a product. It’s also the art of enhancing a surface’s structure by applying three-dimensional techniques, such as weaving, knitting, embroidery, lace, devoré, beading, and embossing.

In courses taught by practicing professionals, you’ll acquire a wide range of skills applicable to a variety of areas, from apparel and home furnishings to greeting cards and tabletop, so you’ll have many career options. For inspiration, you’ll be immersed in the designs and creative traditions of countries around the world and cultures throughout history. Courses blend theory with hands-on practice in such traditional media as painting, drawing, and screen printing as well as digital methods.

In this program, you’ll combine artistic ability, technical skills, and creative innovation, as you learn how to take a design from conception to product. When you graduate, you’ll join a growing network of successful alumni, who connect you to the industry and to job opportunities in the many aspects of this global field.
