Tacility Factory is a highly fruitful collaboration between Ruth Morrow, Professor of Architecture at QUB and Trish Belford, textile designer and Senior Research Fellow at UU. Drawing on their established expertise in architecture, textile design and academia the output of their successful working relationship has also been influenced by family roots in day-to-day construction.

Joseph McBrinn writes on Tactility Factory's Architectural Commission for the Playhouse in Perspective Magazine, May 2009.

"Testing ideas about concrete as textile and textile as structure Tactility Factory has engaged with the thinking of contemporary architectural theorists and educators on the role of the body and its senses in experiencing architecture", McBrinn 2009.
