Choice of patterns, colours or materials: the textile designer is at the crossroads of all trends and innovations.
Creative and professional training, the Textile Design program at École Conte trains textile designers for the largest Parisian design and creation offices.
Start by discovering disciplines specific to textile design: fundamental artistic techniques, application to fabric creation – patterns and colours, notions of graphic composition and material research.
Then immerse yourself in the professional world with a more concrete learning experience in the second year, through simulations with partners or in competitions. Learn to respect commercial constraints and apply your knowledge to your first prototypes.
Finally, affirm your artistic personality around a personal and free project. The result is evaluated in June by a jury of recognized professionals: research work, creative steps, staging of inspirations and quality of the final result.
As part of this programme, students prepare for the Level 6 professional qualification “Designer Fashion and textile product creator”, awarded by Ecole Conte, a member of the Collège de Paris, and registered in the Répertoire National des Certifications Professionnelles under No. 37828.
