research;
- research informed by textiles - studies which are informed by textiles, textile design research methods and textile practice and including areas in which textiles are applied e.g. product design, fashion and architecture; and
- research for textile design education -encompassing pedagogic studies into the development of textile designers, practitioners and researchers.
Within these areas, the journal is interested in interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary approaches and the role of collaboration; relationships between traditional and contemporary practices; the application of new and traditional technologies and materials from both technical and aesthetic perspectives; sustainable textile practices, interfaces between research and industry, the textile
