Design and New Product Development is a multidisciplinary research group focused on design for a wide range of sustainable products. Our pioneering research is practice-led and often carried out collaboratively with commercial and public agencies. We embrace sustainable technology, digital manufacturing, history and theory of design, and spatial design, with a focus on product, furniture and interior design, fashion and footwear, design crafts, and social dimensions of design. Key areas include a design for industry, innovations in packaging, historical/cultural issues in design, and retail, consumer, and technology. Textile Engineering and Materials undertakes multidisciplinary research in four key areas: textile products and processing; enzymes and sustainable technologies; agriculture and natural fibers; and material performance and design. Our expertise ranges widely, from high-performance textiles, nanotechnology, and smart wearables to environmentally friendly textiles, aerospace and military textiles, and protective clothing.
