The Textile studio, shared with the art department, contains a Digital Rowland Cutter, a sublimation printer, and a heat press. Finally, the DE workshop is used mainly for 3D practical assignments using wood, plastics, and limited metal work. It comprises a general work area with machinery and workbenches, a studio area for designing and an additional laser cutter.
