VARIANT3D strives to simplify textile production, making it possible for anyone to create. Our focus on clarifying the nuances of 3D-printed textiles is a step toward that mission. We’ve put together a thorough breakdown of what that entails and how flatbed machines play a role. See the full breakdown in the caption below: - Minimum Seam Fabrication: Creates complete, seamless garments or parts in one piece, reducing the need for post-knitting assembly. - Complex Design Capability: Allows for intricate, complex designs and shapes unachievable by traditional knitting methods. - Customizable Outputs: Offers high flexibility in design for customized sizes, shapes, and patterns through digital control. - Material Efficiency: Reduces waste by precisely knitting the required amount of fabric, contributing to sustainability. - Diverse Applications: Used across various industries, including fashion, medical, automotive, and more, for its versatility in producing tailored textile products.

The potential for artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality (AR) in home textile applications was a major focus at the 2024 edition of Heimtextil. Several exhibitors demonstrated digital innovations which employ AI and AR, including fabric design applications, image generators and software programmes. The Millshop Online presented an AI fabric design application called FabricGenie which is said to represent the first AI technology of its kind to be employed in the home textiles industry. At the same time, VARIANT3D demonstrated a software application called Loop which is capable of transforming two-dimensional (2D) models into knit-to-shape programmes for making 3D knitted products. MANND demonstrated an image generator called Interactive Design Studio which is capable of producing interior design concepts based on data entered into a user interface (UI). Meanwhile, Augmented Weaving showcased an AR technology developed in collaboration with Penelope CAD Systems which can display high quality digital prototypes of “real life” textile samples. https://bit.ly/4bX84Kj #hometextiles #interiors #heimtextil #design #designtrends #AI #AR #software #fabric #textiles #knit #samples Heimtextil Messe Frankfurt GmbH

We are truly honored to share our collaboration with David Horvitz! The 9 x 16 ft banner for 'Abandoning the Room' in Milan was crafted at our Malibu HQ, with yarn that endured the 2018 Woolsey Fire. David used charcoal sourced from the bark of oak trees that withstood the fire, integrating natural elements directly into the design. It reflects abstract patterns that echo the dynamic forms of clouds and smoke seen during the fire. This meaningful project demonstrates our commitment to combining creativity and technology through LOOP, bringing artistic ideas to life.
