About

This Digital Textile Design course at the University of the Arts London (UAL) will introduce you to the digital skills needed, to get you started in digital textile printing. Focusing on the two main print specific Adobe Products: Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator, you will learn how to generate repeat pattern designs.

Overview

The patterns will then be printed onto a silk bamboo fabric. Through step by step exercises, you will be introduced to the fundamental digital printed textile design techniques and learn the differences between the two main Adobe image editing packages.

Throughout the Digital Textile Design course at the University of the Arts London (UAL) you will consider how to adapt your design in relation to the final application, whether this be for a fashion, interior or fine art outcome.
