Designing with Smart Textiles delivers first-hand advice from leading researchers and practitioners in this hybrid field, offering the reader practical skills for designing with existing textiles and developing their own smart textiles. §While titles exist which talk makers through the steps of using conductive yarns and textiles in their projects, there is no practical provision for learners at this stage working directly with textile development, no clear conceptual frameworks to utilize and no advice on professional creative practice. §Practical design projects and business advice will draw on the experience of world leaders in the field, such as Sabine Seymour, Barbara Layne and Mette Ramsgaard Thomsen.
