Hand-drawn meets digital: expressing your brand’s unique style
At ALBA Textile Design Office in Kyoto, we blend the expressive quality of hand-drawn artistry with the precision of digital technology to create designs that deeply reflect each brand’s unique world and sensibility.
The subtle irregularities in hand-drawn lines and colors carry a natural warmth and rhythm that only human touch can convey. By refining these expressive elements through meticulous digital processing, we achieve a one-of-a-kind texture and finish.
We do not keep design stock for long periods. Even the most beautiful pattern can lose its freshness as trends and times evolve. What matters most to ALBA is capturing the sensibility of this very moment and creating designs that reflect the brand’s “present.”
Constantly pursuing new expressions that capture the atmosphere of the time, we propose textiles that harmonize hand-drawn artistry with digital precision, bringing designs that truly resonate with the era.
Original designs that paint the story of your brand
At ALBA Textile Design Office, we create original print designs with a strong focus on communication and collaboration with fashion brands.
By carefully listening to each brand’s unique story and imagery, we propose original patterns that express their individuality. Staying attuned to the latest trends, we deliver timely, high-quality designs tailored to each season and market—helping to enhance both product appeal and brand value.
As the era of fast fashion draws to a close, apparel brands are entering an age where individuality and creative identity matter more than ever. This shift continues to accelerate, leading to a growing demand for truly distinctive textile design.
At ALBA, we believe that genuine originality comes not from mass-produced motifs, but from thoughtful, one-of-a-kind design creation. By capturing the spirit of the times while reflecting each brand’s unique charm, we aim to craft textiles that embody the evolving value of contemporary design.
At ALBA, we place the highest value on expressing each brand’s unique identity and aspire to grow together with our clients through design.
We would be delighted to discuss your ideas with you. With distinctive and expressive print designs, we help bring new color and vitality to your brand’s future.
