Nobel Textiles: Marrying Design to Scientific Discovery
Nobel Textiles is the result of a two year-long collaboration between Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design and the Medical Research Council which paired 5 Nobel Prize winning scientists with 5 designers. The results of this innovative project will be showcased for the first time in Saint James’s Park with design collections and site specific installations inspired by the discoveries of the Nobel Laureates.
Science and design both play a role in redefining our relationships with each other and the world around us. This exhibition explores creative overlaps in science and design evoking new meaning and enriching culture.
The project pioneers: Amanda Fisher (MRC) and Carole Collet (CSM) explain: “Designers fundamentally shape the way we live, while science pervades the very fabric of our lives. Nobel Textiles involves a journey into the interface between science and design,
a dialogue between leading researchers in both fields”.
