Field Guide to Fabric Design

Autor Kim Kight
en Limba Engleză Paperback – oct 2011

Descoperim în paginile acestui ghid o claritate surprinzătoare asupra unui domeniu adesea perceput ca fiind tehnic și inaccesibil: designul de suprafață pentru textile. A Field Guide To Fabric Design elimină barierele dintre o idee schițată pe hârtie și materialul finit, oferindu-ne instrumentele necesare pentru a înțelege proporția, spațierea și mecanismele din spatele modelelor repetitive. Remarcăm abordarea pragmatică a autoarei Kim Kight, care nu se limitează doar la estetică, ci ne conduce prin procesul riguros al serigrafiei și, esențial, către etapa de monetizare a muncii creative. Experiența de lectură este una fluidă, manualul fiind structurat pentru a fi consultat direct pe masa de lucru. Tonul este încurajator, transformând teoria culorilor și conceptele de design în pași acționabili. Pe raftul de artă, alături de The Complete Guide to Designing and Printing Fabric de Laurie Wisbrun, acest album se distinge prin simplitatea și pragmatismul său; în timp ce volumul lui Wisbrun explorează o gamă vastă de metode de imprimare, Kim Kight se concentrează pe fundamentele solide care permit unui începător să își construiască o identitate vizuală coerentă. Credem că valoarea acestui volum rezidă în capacitatea de a demistifica industria textilă, oferind sfaturi despre cum să îți vinzi designurile, un aspect adesea neglijat în alte manuale tehnice precum cel al lui Francis J. Kafka. Este o resursă vizuală și tactilă care transformă curiozitatea în competență profesională.

If you ve ever dreamed of having a go at designing your own fabrics, you simply must, must, must get yourself a copy of this book. IT s a comprehensive guide to everything you need to know and everything you need to think about when it comes to developing and producing a printed fabric. Design and colour basics are explained, with step-by-step tutorials for creating repeat patterns by hand or computer. Then you can explore the myriad ways of transferring your design to cloth, from stamping and screen printing to digital printing with short-run fabric printers such as Spoonflower through to how to go about getting a contract with one of the large fabric companies to produce a range that you ve designed. This book will be valuable to those who would just like to play with the occasional designs as well as those who aspire to be the next Amy Butler. If you have good ideas and some design flair, there s now nothing stopping you. Go for it. --Australian Homespun Magazine; September 2012
Fabric design, or textile surface design, has long fascinated me. The ability to play with the color, proportion, and spacing of a design through a repeat is very intriguing. Kight briefly explores different styles, design and color fundamentals as applied to textiles. This includes a look at both digital and traditional design techniques. The meat of the book is the explanation of how repeats are created, including different repeat styles. Both digital and traditional (hand drawn) techniques are explained. Interspersed throughout the book are comments from fabric designers, both established and just starting out, from which the reader can draw inspiration. Finally, Kight presents ideas of how to print and sell your own fabric. What quickly becomes clear is that textiles fabric designing is a competitive and difficult market. There are several instructional overviews including hand block printing, screen printing, designing a collection, and textile basics. All are comprehensive and a good foundation for further study and exploration. The book is laid out well and is easy to read and follow. The instructions for designing repeats are clear and easy to understand. I liked this book a lot and I will reference it when I play around with designs, whether for a desktop wallpaper or for fabric I intend on printing. --designloft.blogspot.com; 1/8/13
