Ed was invited to create the branding for Warp Factor '09, an ambassadorial exhibition from Central Saint Martins, showcasing a select group of designers that were contributing to the future direction of textile design. It opened in Tokyo in October then moved on to Guangzhou in November, and finally back to London for a months residence in Central Saint Martins' Lethaby Gallery.

Ed set out to create an aesthetic that would dispel peoples preconceptions of textile design and the industry, as the work itself does. It was applied across various platforms, catalogue design, website, large scale posters, press packs and invites.
