In deze bonusaflevering zijn we te gast in het TextielMuseum in Tilburg. We gaan om tafel met Hebe Verstappen, manager van het TextielLab, en komen alles te weten over de bijzondere samenwerking tussen de Efteling en het museum ter gelegenheid van de 70e verjaardag van het park, waarvoor exclusief textiel voor op tafel werd ontwikkeld. We leren wat een jubileumdamast is, hoe het ontwerpproces verliep, en welke keuzes op het gebied van techniek en materialisering werden gemaakt. Ook ontdekken we een bijzondere link met Anton Pieck...Show notes- TextielMuseum - Tilburg- Homepage - Textiel Lab- Nieuw: bijzondere Efteling tafellinnen-set- Start verkoop exclusief Efteling-tafellinnen- Hebe Verstappen | LinkedIn

This video takes a look at the process behind producing one of Kustaa Saksi's Hypnopompic rugs at the Textiel Museum in Tilburg. Saksi realised ‘Hypnopompic’; a series of eight vivid large-scale tapestries. Hypnopompic means the dreamlike state of consciousness filled with illusions that can occur between waking and sleeping. The brightly coloured pieces combine recognisable creatures and organic designs with surreal visualisations. A wide range of natural and synthetic materials, from viscose, lurex and metallic yarns, to alpaca wool and mohair, add extra depth. The wall hangings on display have all been developed and produced in the TextielLab. textielmuseum.nl

Borre Akkersdijk, who graduated from Design Academy Eindhoven last year, worked in the TextielLab to produce knitted textiles that are padded with a filler thread. The result is a range of ‘stuffed’ garments, including trousers, a parka, a cape and a jacket. When the pattern components emerge from the machine they are ready-made. The fabric’s patterns are derived from an old kilim, which had belonged to a favourite aunt who recently died. This rug was woven by hand, so it exhibits crooked lines, irregularities and the marks of age, features that Borre imitated in the digital conversion. It is like his personal signature in an otherwise industrial product. Borre Akkersdijk experimented with the production of thickly padded knits on the large circular knitting machine in the TextielLab. The machine was specially fitted with so-called padding mangle for this project, making it possible to produce knits that are padded out with filler threads. The investigation focused on the knitting of lengths of cloth in which the pattern components are filled out. The edges of each section remain attached, so the padding remains inside when the pattern components are cut from the base. Finishing is no longer necessary. The first test, with just a sleeve, pointed in the right direction immediately. He then carried out colour tests on the actual pattern, a hand-drawn kilim motif. How do the colours mix together and to what extent must they vary and follow the pattern? He eventually decided to knit the garments in colour mixes, because this renders the fabric more lively and exciting.
