Soft Surfaces: Visual Research for Artists, Architects and Designers


Over 1,200 high-quality colour images of traditional and innovative textiles, in print and on CD-ROM.
Modelled on the successful Surfaces, also published by Thames & Hudson, this new collection of photographs catalogues hundreds of varieties of textiles, grouped by structure and surface treatment, up-close and in interior and exterior applications, such as window treatments, upholstery, awnings, tents and floor coverings.
Like the previous book, Soft Surfaces is tailored to research needs, providing examples for architects, interior designers, theatrical and film designers, illustrators, artists and graphic designers. All the images are included on a CD-ROM for ease of use and are supported by a full reference section with a glossary and source information.
Artists and designers working in all fields of the visual and creative arts will find everything they need in this vibrant, vital resource.
