Reviews
The authors approach textiles from all angles, including fibers, manufacturing processes, care and installation. What I like most of all is that it teaches students about all the organizations out there, the standards, and why it is important to know about the textile before you select them for an installation. It really hits multiple viewpoints which is essential for being a successful designer. -- Jessica Royale MacKenzie, Northern Arizona University, USA
