Bachelor of Design with Honours (Textile Design)

Textile design has many possibilities including fashion, interior, or gallery outcomes. Develop skills in colour, styling, texture, pattern, and surface application. You can specialise in print, dye, knit, weave, mixed media and non-woven textiles, going beyond traditional fabrics. We prepare you for the rapidly evolving world of work and business. We’ll help you develop your own research and design approaches and push the boundaries of current textile practice. Skilled innovators will always have the edge. Massey provides an intellectual and creative environment, encouraging critical debate. You'll be positioned to make your own choices about the design and manufacture of your own textiles. That could include questions like sustainability values and ethical production. We train you to create opportunities, identify new concepts, and take part in the global industry. Textile design research at Massey has particular strengths in: adding value to New Zealand wool products developing innovative ways to use textile waste, and sustainability.
