In my thesis work I choose to define textile as a way of constructing, before seeing it as a material. I have explored the possibilities of building with the tension that is formed between the threads in weaving and knitting. By mixing the two techniques in the same fabric, I can benefit from their different qualities as the material produced creates the shape of the space.   As a textile designer studying spatial design, I have carried out this investigation to raise the importance and impact of textile in interior, and as an interior. By challenging the hierarchy of building construction materials and giving textile more value, I can acquire more sensual, tactile and maybe even unexpected qualities in the interiors I create.

”Min magiska värld” är en textil installation avsedd att fungera som en sagohörna i ett bibliotek för barn i förskoleåldern. Med utgångspunkt i 3 mönster skapas en fantasivärld som möter barn på bibliotek. Mönstrade ylletyger har tillverkats för att sedan filtas och placeras i rummet. Meningen med mönstren är att skapa en känsla av skog, harmoni och delaktighet i rummet. / ”Min magiska värld” is a textile installation with the intent purpose of creating a story time escape for pre-schoolers. Thus, acts as a re-presentment of a creative approach towards the childpractical décor of a library. With an outset of three textile patterns, the textile installation seeks to create an illusion of “ fantasy meets reality “ in the visual aspect of an enchanting grove. The fabric in knitted wool have been designed, fabricated and felted to be placed within the selected area. The layout of the patterns bears the essence of creating an increased notion of participation as well as to instil an impression of the kind of harmony that could be sensed in the forest.
