WOVEN TEXTILES PROJECT_03
WEAVING LAB
Image to Jacquard
INDEXED COLOR / EAT DESIGNSCOPE / JACQUARD LOOM
An original photograph indexed in Photoshop, assigned yarns and weaves per color in EAT DesignScope, and woven on a jacquard loom.
THE PROJECT
An original photograph was reduced to indexed colors in Photoshop, then brought into EAT DesignScope to assign a yarn and a weave to each color index before weaving on the jacquard loom.
01 / SOURCE IMAGE
An original photograph of a building at dusk.

02 / INDEXED COLOR
The photograph was reduced to a small set of indexed colors in Photoshop, so that each region of tone becomes one index.
-
03 / EAT DESIGNSCOPE PROCESS
The indexed image was opened in EAT DesignScope, where each color index becomes an area that can be given its own weave.
-
04 / YARN / WEAVE ASSIGNMENT
A yarn and a weave structure were assigned to every index. The balance of warp and weft on the face at each index sets how light or dark it reads in the cloth.
