The work addresses the use of straw in the design of textiles. It explores the extent to which straw can be used to form a textile surface, to create volume, and simultaneously to produce interesting patterning. The process involved applying rye straw systematically to natural and synthetic textile surfaces of varying weights in order to determine its scope and limits. The physical malleability of straw allows wide experimentation and resulted in the current collection, intended as an inspiration for spatial use.
