BA Hons Design Crafts in Textiles

The Contemporary Design Crafts Textiles degree at the University of Hertfordshire explores a combination of textiles, jewellery and ceramics & glass in the First Year, leading to a specialised focus in the textiles medium in their Second Year. This enables students to reach the high level of refinement necessary for the professional marketplace. The final year results in a production of richly diverse range of artifacts - such as experimental clothing and accessories, objects and surfaces for interiors, site-specific pieces and conceptual works for exhibition or commission. The emphasis is on questioning function and tradition to arrive at fresh, lively alternatives for a sophisticated market.
