The berlin textile coop. is an independent hub for artistic practice, textile innovation, material research, and collaborative making based in Berlin. It brings together artists, designers, researchers, makers, and cultural practitioners to explore new approaches to textiles, emerging materials, and open-source technologies.
Through shared workspaces, prototyping facilities, residencies, workshops, exhibitions, and public programmes, the coop. supports experimentation across disciplines and encourages dialogue between creative practice, research, education, and industry. Particular areas of interest include biomaterials, circular textile systems, digital fabrication, craft-based knowledge, and distributed forms of production.
By providing accessible infrastructure and fostering collaborative learning, the berlin textile coop. creates opportunities for artistic exploration, material innovation, and collective knowledge exchange. The hub acts as a platform for developing new cultural, social, and ecological perspectives on the future of textiles and materials.
