In order to create your next fabric collection you need a lot of information and inspiration. You can get some from the runways, some from existing clothes, but your archive is definitely a key source where to look for more creative inputs. For this reason, in the last years we have put a lot of effort into the creation of two unique books: Mini Designs and New Uniti.  These special textile books are at the same time fabric trend books and textile technical books because the fabric swatches are presented with their own weaves , warp and weft notes, etc. - ready to become part of your textile library.
