Innovative commercial textile company Carnegie builds on its design studio leadership with the promotion of Aliesha Bishop to Xorel Studio Director.
In her new role, Bishop will lead the Xorel studio in close collaboration with Xorel Creative Director and EVP, Heather Bush. The studio will continue pushing the innovation of Carnegie’s award-winning sustainable Xorel textile, developing unique solutions for upholstery, wallcoverings or acoustical wall panels for all projects.
