The BA (Hons) Textile Design at Norwich University of the Arts suits curious, creative students exploring surface, pattern, materials, and digital/traditional processes for interiors and fashion. As textile designers, you drive sustainable, ethical solutions, designing for environments, body, and artefacts while challenging consumption, inclusivity, and daily interactions with textiles. The course fosters personal professional interests alongside creative, technical, and industry skills, allowing exploration of all processes—print, knit, weave, stitch, dyeing, embellishment, and digital tools—without early specialisation. Key features include materiality through drawing and research, cultural/sustainability contexts, industry lectures, responsible design, and innovation blending traditional and digital methods.A year-long Diploma in Creative Computing between Years 2 and 3 introduces coding to enhance your practice (no prior experience needed). In the final year, build a graduate portfolio with live briefs, competitions, placements, and industry feedback. Graduates secure roles in design studios (e.g., Joules, Next Home), manufacturing, conservation, education, and launch businesses like Kalopsia Collective.
