3D printable recycled textiles : material innovation and a resurrection of the forgotten ‘shoddy’ industry (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Vettese, S. (2017). 3D printable recycled textiles : material innovation and a resurrection of the forgotten ‘shoddy’ industry. In Loughborough University Textile Design Research Group INTERSECTIONS Conference 2017

This paper will disseminate an interdisciplinary project, undertaken at Edinburgh Napier University between the Design and Advanced Materials. Several 3D printable materials are commercially available that use recycled material, but none that incorpo...

A study of the multi generational relationship with making through mediated designing in collaborative, digital environments: implications for learning and open access fabrication (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Vettese, S., Thompson, P., & Allan, D. (2017). A study of the multi generational relationship with making through mediated designing in collaborative, digital environments: implications for learning and open access fabrication. In Cumulus Hong Kong 2016, Cumulus Working Papers, Open Design for E-very-thing (23-30)

In this paper, the researchers will investigate different ways in which school age, 'generation net' children learn, through non-linear, mediated, collaborative ‘making’ environments, enabled by online communities of ‘citizen practitioners' and maker...

An exploration of the sustainable and aesthetic possibilities of 3D printing onto textiles as an alternative to traditional surface decoration (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Burn, K., Vettese, S., & Shackleton, J. (2017). An exploration of the sustainable and aesthetic possibilities of 3D printing onto textiles as an alternative to traditional surface decoration. In Circular Transitions Proceedings (141-154)

Embellishment, in a fashion and textile context, can be considered an extraneous decorative process that has a significant detrimental impact on the environment. However, aesthetic and cultural theories, in addition to consumer appeal, show that it i...

In Situ 3D Printed Souvenirs and their Affect on Visitors Engagement with Built Heritage (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Vettese, S., & Anastasiadou, C. (2016). In Situ 3D Printed Souvenirs and their Affect on Visitors Engagement with Built Heritage. In In this place : cumulus association biannual international conference (98-103)

In this study, visitors’ perception and engagement with built heritage surroundings was investigated in relation to their interaction with 3d printed souvenirs which reflected architectural features of the site. A 3D printer was set up in Stirling Ca... Read More about In Situ 3D Printed Souvenirs and their Affect on Visitors Engagement with Built Heritage.

Enhancing the Tourist Heritage Experience through In-Situ, Customisable, 3D printed Souvenirs (2015)
Conference Proceeding
Forster, S., & Anastasiadou, C. (2015). Enhancing the Tourist Heritage Experience through In-Situ, Customisable, 3D printed Souvenirs. In Proceedings Heritage Tourism & Hospitality International Conference 2015

This research set out to investigate whether technological innovations in design and the personalisation of tourist souvenirs through 3D printing, could offer opportunities to break away from stereotypically throwaway, low quality, mass manufactured...

Thermochromic dyes and sunlight activating systems - An alternative means to induce colour change. (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Ledendal, M., Christie, R. M., & Vettese-Forster, S. (2013). Thermochromic dyes and sunlight activating systems - An alternative means to induce colour change

The general purpose of this work is to investigate the potential of a mobile phone to capture soil colour images and process them, returning the corresponding Munsell colour coordi- nates from the digital RGB captured images, and also estimate the tr...

Relating Innovative 2D Ideas into 3D Garments in Terms of Structure, Using ‘Sculptural Form Giving’ as an Intermediate Step in Creation. (2011)
Conference Proceeding
Kalkreuter, B., Vettese-Forster, S., & Huang, Y. C. (2011). Relating Innovative 2D Ideas into 3D Garments in Terms of Structure, Using ‘Sculptural Form Giving’ as an Intermediate Step in Creation.

This research focuses on finding a fashion design methodology to reliably translate innovative two-dimensional ideas on paper, via a structural design sculpture, into an intermediate model. The author, both as a fashion designer and a researcher, h...
