The BRAIDED TEXTILES project explores the textile network as an alternative material in accessories and clothing.
Braiding is one of the oldest traditional handcraft techniques. An innovative manufacturing process modernizes the craft of braiding, revitalizing traditional braiding with a robotics and machine-assisted process.
Within a few seconds, the machine produces a wearable textile cover that combines properties of woven and knitted fabrics.
