Master in Textile Design

IED - Istituto Europeo di Design is the largest Higher Education Network in the creative fields that has maintained a global outlook with a deeply rooted Italian cultural matrix since 1966. Today, it has 11 locations across 3 countries: Italy, Spain, and Brazil. The broad educational offering includes over 300 programs, ranging from Undergraduate to Postgraduate courses, as well as Lifelong Learning and Preparatory courses, focusing on Design, Fashion, Communication, and Visual Arts.

IED’s educational approach is based on a simple yet effective model: the combination of theory with practice, enriched by the expertise of professionals from the industry who bring their knowledge directly into the classroom. Additionally, students are challenged with real briefs and projects thanks to strong partnerships with leading companies and agencies built over the years.

IED is an inclusive, transdisciplinary school that uses design as a universal language for change, encouraging its students to shape the world through the power of their ideas.

This program explores the environmental and ethical impacts of textile design, integrating new production and communication technologies to create strategic projects that positively influence fashion’s environmental and social ecosystems. By experimenting with advanced technologies like 3D printing, AI, sustainable materials, and low-impact innovations, students can merge circularity and innovation in textile design for applications in fashion styling, interior design, product development, and furniture design.
