As a textile designer and researcher, I have dedicated my career to exploring the limitless possibilities of wool. I believe that wool offers endless opportunities for creativity and innovation. With a focus on sustainability and environmental concerns, I strive to push the boundaries of wool textile design, constantly seeking new techniques and approaches that minimize the negative impacts traditionally associated with the textile industry.

Designing the Curtains and Stage of the Assembly Hall of Kõrveküla Primary School

2021–2022

Supervisor Aet Ollisaar, Keret Altpere

The project was commisioned in the beginning of 2021 by the municipality of Tartu to update the curtain design solution for the assembly hall of Kõrveküla Primary School, and a competition was held for students of the textile department. The project “A Dream of Youth”, by Liisi Tamm, was selected. The concept of the solution is inspired by Miina Härma’s choral work to the words of Gustav Suits, characterized by being a youthful, rebellious and restless, and a classic and timeless solution at the same time.

The end result was a stage curtain solution for the assembly hall, consisting of curtains with a digitally printed pattern, a white background curtain and the screen. On the side walls, covering the windows are hand-silk-printed Roman curtains inspired by the meadows of Vooremaa. The entire appearance and color scheme of the hall was updated according to the author’s design.

Marju Roos and the companies Sisustus+, MUZE and Fabricor contributed to the implementation.
