DMT, which stands for Design Master Textile, offers design assistance and services including translating concepts into fabric, editing images, layout work, construction analysis, card cutting designs, creating loom files, forecasting domestic color trends, recommending yarns, technical assistance for wide weaving, and creating multiple color ways.

Taylor also notes the studio can interface with any mill worldwide.
