We were delighted to collaborate with the Year 2 weave students at Central Saint Martins on a project inspired by Spitalfields. Drawing on the area’s rich history, architecture and food culture, the students brought a wide range of creative perspectives to the brief.
Over eight weeks, they were given the freedom to interpret the project in their own way, resulting in a vibrant and diverse body of work. The quality was incredibly high, with beautifully woven pieces that combined strong ideas, thoughtful research and clear product direction.
We’d like to recognise a few students whose work particularly stood out.
Joey, our winning student, spent a full day with us at the mill. His work showed a sophisticated use of colour and carefully selected swatches, brought together in a refined and well-executed collection. The inclusion of a noble fibre within his jacquard and a cohesive colour story gave his work a real sense of balance and luxury.
It was a pleasure to host Joey at the mill, giving him an opportunity to see first-hand his ideas translate into production made it a valuable and inspiring experience.
We would like to thank all the students and tutors involved in the project.
