Beautiful book
I was bought this book as a gift, I currently study printed textiles at University and find it SO hard to find decent books about actual print design (opposed to fashion design or textile manipulation)...this book is a god send, it is filled with beautiful pages and inspirational ideas...must have for any textiles student...really lovely to just flick through even if you don't study it for that matter...great range of designs and artists, from abstract to realism, florals to squares and dots. :)

Great source of inspiration for designers and students!
I bought this book a few months back as i am studying a textile print design degree.

It is full of examples of work ranging from fashion, to wallpaper, stationary, and everything inbetween.

Its a great book and great source of inspiration. I bought three books and this book was the biggest and jam packed full of designs and colour pictures :)

Great work
Bought as a present for someone studying surface design. They're very happy with it. Holds a lot of inspirational art and reasonably priced.
