Studio Texture
Texlab

What do you get when you let contemporary artists and craftsmen loose on the Texture collection and the rich history of textiles? You can find out in our Texlabs: a series of innovative creative projects in which artists, designers and scientists are inspired by the techniques of yesteryear, handed down by family businesses in the region. The results are surprising and thought-provoking. How about a cello made of flax or a few hundred tufted pigeons? Mini-documentaries show how the projects came about and meticulously capture the craftsmanship of the makers.
