An excerpt here provided by Emily Wills, the Programme Leader for Fashion Textiles:
'Geometry in Repeat exhibits the collaboration between Singapore-based interior textile design house, Korla, and Level 2 Fashion Textiles students. Renowned for creating evocative, playful prints, and their use of bold colours, iconic motifs and strong patterns, Korla invited students to create a series of textile designs that  responded to interior trends and took inspiration from Southeast Asian cultures. Given the theme; Geometry in Repeat, students explored the trend of geometric patterns through analysis of repeat systems, motif development, colour and fabric testing to play with scale and technical parameters of materials and equipment to design and produce a collection of textiles for interiors. This exhibition showcases students textile designs alongside Korla’s distinctive designs, and the application of interior textiles in product, furnishing and home accessories.'
