JACQUARD Origin
Loom
The weave of jacquard finds its history in brocade. In 4th century Byzantium, linens and wools were being woven into complex patterns to form beautiful fabrics. With the import of silk weaving around the 6th century, brocade became as luxurious to the touch as it was to the eyes. Byzantine craftsmen began to weave silk into brocades, damasks, and tapestry-like fabrics. By the middle ages, brocades were so expensive that they were only available to the upper nobility and rich. Brocade soon became a symbol of wealth and power, and was favored by monarchs throughout the medieval world.
Joseph Marie Jacquard started out as a draw boy. Draw boys were always small children, as they had to be able to climb on top of the loom in order to work. They typically spent 6-8 hours a day working, lifting about 30 pounds of weaving reeds at a time, at the direction of the weaver. This was backbreaking work, often done in horrible conditions, and many draw boys were crippled by the profession. Jacquard knew there had to be a better way. He dedicated his life to finding one.

Throughout all of these centuries, brocades were woven by hand on large looms called draw looms. These looms required two people to operate, a weaver and a draw boy. The weaver would call out to the draw boy, letting him know which threads to lift and when, so that the correct colored threads would show through each line of weave. This was an incredibly labor intensive and slow process. By the end of a full day, a good team of weaver and draw boy could expect to have completed roughly two square inches of finely patterned silk cloth. By the 1700s, several French inventors were hard at work to create a better loom, but one former draw boy had a vision that would change the world forever.
By the late 1700’s, machines were being developed to handle all sorts of repetitive tasks. They were already being widely used to create simple patterned fabrics, but brocades still required an artist’s touch, since their designs were far more complex. In order to create such a pattern, there would need to be a way to program the machine to change its weave depending on which line of the pattern was being created. Jacquard created a simple but ingenious solution, using stiff punch cards similar to the reels still seen in player pianos and mechanical music boxes today. In 1801, his initial concept won him the attention of Napoleon himself, who called Jacquard to Paris and commissioned him to perfect his process in the national interest. The final version, which debuted in 1804, became the world’s first programmable
Textile design
machine. It was later a strong influence for Charles Babbage, credited with creating the world’s first computer, as well as many other uses of punch cards in all sorts of modern applications. The punch cards he created are also thought to be the origin of binary code systems. Modern Jacquard
Modern jacquard fabrics can be made from a variety of different fibers, from natural cottons and silks, to man-made polyester and polyester cotton blends. What all of them have in common is the method of construction. Generally they are intricate in design, and tend to be stronger and thicker than many other types of weave. The hallmark of jacquard fabrics is that the design is woven into the fabric itself, rather than stamped, printed, or embroidered on top of it. Because of this, some jacquards are even reversible, with the negative of their pattern found on the back.

More than a century and a half after Monsieur Jacquard first revolutionized the textile industry, in the 1980’s the original electronic jacquard looms were brought to the market. Today, Jacquard’s punch card programming has widely been replaced by modern computer programming, allowing for far greater complexity of design. Yet the fabrics they produce still bear Jacquard’s name, an homage to the amazing advances he dreamed up centuries ago.

LITERATURE RIVIEW In uncertain times, our home moves centre stage. Now more than ever, interior spaces are meeting functional and emotional needs. In other words, emotion is becoming a primary function. love of home conveys security and safety. Warm vintage colours such as peach, blush, washed-out forgetme-not blue, nude and nectar yellow create a comforting, intimate atmosphere. These soothing colours with their nostalgic appeal are outlined by radiant white, dark liquorice and mint. Floral decorations and romantic motifs offer an invitation to dream in the here and now. The look is cosy and pleasing, but not too luxurious – simply suitable for the setting.
Advance weave Documention
Home has never been more important than during this pandemic. We have never spent more time at home than during the past year and a half. Now more than ever, the home is the centre of structuring our everyday lives and our safe base. Here, the role of home textiles and the positivity textiles can bring – comfort, softness, expression, identity and even safety – has a great outlook for 22/23. Likewise, textiles for the hospitality sector will be important as outgoing activities need to be safe, comfortable and immersive to gain attention from the returning customers.

HYPERNATURE
Advance weave Documention
Hyper Nature is a symphony of immersive realms digitally communicating nature’s secrets and treasures. For the home textiles industry, Hyper Nature is about digital representations of nature and creating design offering inspiration of how nature would make – or furthermore, being the facilitator of nature’s blueprint and considering how to grow a better world by fusing technology and nature. Photobiology and light science technologies create a new path of more sustainable methods of agriculture. For instance, blue, red, and ultraviolet light can enhance plant growth and reduce pesticide use up to 50 per cent. This knowledge formed the basis for the project Grow by Studio Roosegaarde. According to Daan Roosegaarde, “GROW is the dreamscape which shows the beauty of light and sustainability. Not as a utopia but as a protopia, improving step by step”.
COLOURS
KEY TAKEAWAYS Hyper Nature is about reconnecting to nature through technology: breaking down the silos to create new immersive worlds. Hyper Nature is not only about digitalising the natural world but going beyond for a new tactility and hybrid reality. Hyper Nature is a digital facilitator of nature’s blueprint, fusing technology and nature for a protopia state and creating a better tomorrow step by step. Hyper Nature attracts younger audiences both due to its vivid colours and advanced visual expressions. The ability to play and quickly change as per digital interaction strengthens the attraction to younger consumers.

The most commonly seen interference is an optical interference or light interference.

Keeping in mind the keyword of distorted, reflective, vibrant, Psychedelic, Experimenting and exploring diffusion on a variety of surfaces that are to be photographed and recreated into artworks through a digital medium that is to be conceptualised using the technique of jacquard weaving. The jacquard fabric will have a plain weave, twill and satin as the main weaves. slub yarns are to be used for incorporating tactility into the fabric.
