Within 
a 
concentrated 
time 
scale 
of 
just 
over 
200 
years 
a 
remarkable 
diversity 
of 
thinking 
and 
creativity 
has 
evolved 
in 
textile 
design. 
While 
this 
is 
certainly 
the 
result 
of 
developments 
such 
as 
the 
technological 
innovations 
of 
the 
Industrial 
Revolution, 
the 
invention 
of 
synthetic 
fabrics 
in 
the 
twentieth 
century 
and, 
most 
recently, 
the 
digital 
revolution, 
the 
inspiration 
that 
fueled 
this 
evolution—and 
continues 
to 
inspire 
modern 
textile 
designers—is 
firmly 
rooted 
in 
the 
remarkable 
variety 
of 
imagery, 
design 
styles, 
patterns, 
and 
techniques 
that 
has 
been 
created 
over 
the 
past 
4000 
years. 
This 
chapter 
looks 
at 
the 
historical 
and 
cultural 
contexts 
in 
which 
textile 
design 
has 
evolved, 
and 
provides 
insights 
into 
the 
creative 
and 
technical 
capabilities 
of 
its 
early 
craftsmen, 
as 
well 
as 
highlighting 
the 
work 
of 
key 
twentieth-century 
designers. 
It 
also 
describes 
the 
complex 
trade 
relationships 
that 
have 
existed 
and, 
in 
some 
cases, 
continue 
to 
exist 
in 
the 
field 
of 
textiles, 
and 
discusses 
the 
environmental 
and 
ethical 
challenges 
that 
textile 
designers 
face 
in 
the 
twenty-first 
century. 
This 
opulent 
Sunni 
textile 
is 
an 
example 
of 
a 
complex 
geometric 
pattern 
based 
on 
mathematics, 
an 
art 
form 
for 
which 
the 
Islamic 
world 
is 
renowned.
