Описание:
While the topic of sustainability in textile manufacture has been the subject of considerable research, much of this is limited to a focus on materials and practices and their ecological impact. Padovani and Whittaker offer a unique exploration of the textile industry in Europe from the perspective of social sustainability, shifting the focus from the materiality of textile production to the industry's relationships with the communities from which the products originate.
Featuring six in-depth case studies from design entrepreneurs, artisans and textile businesses around Europe, from Harris Tweed in Scotland to luxury woollen mills in Italy, Sustainability and the Social Fabric explores how new centres of textile manufacturing have emerged from the economic decline in 2008, responding creatively and producing socially inclusive approaches to textile production. Case studies each represent a different approach to social sustainability and are supported by interviews with industry leaders and comparisons to the global textile industry. Demonstrating how some companies are rebuilding the local social fabric to encourage consumer participation through education, enterprise, health and wellbeing, the book suggests innovative business models that are economically successful and also, in turn, support wider societal issues.
Essential reading for students of textiles, fashion, design and related subjects, this book will demonstrate how a business ecosystem that focuses on inclusive growth and social innovation can lead to sustained mutual benefit for textile industries and their local communities.

Описание: Allison Whittaker, former Publisher of Boston Review, and award-winning painter Pritha Srinivasan share the best of their work from an unusual collaboration where sometimes Srinivasan painted to Whittaker's poems and other times, Whittaker wrote to Srinivasan's paintings. Together, the dynamic watermedia and lyrical verse capture the subtle duality of an experience, frozen in time, while evoking powerful emotions and prompting reflection on our own journeys through life. Pritha Srinivasan's lyrical watercolors are paired gloriously with Whittaker's dreamlike poetry, creating an elliptical, intensely personal vision.? Adrienne Miller, author of The Coast of Akron Dream in Color makes a powerful statement. As you turn these pages, you will experience the duet of their collaboration. . . . simply delicious Lynne Haussler Oakes, Founder of The Art League of Germantown
