Could you imagine a course filled with new skills in sewing, sewing, design, pattern construction and repair? Or learn knitting, embroidery, screen printing and upcycling?
At Sewing, Slow fashion & Redesign, you will learn to create your own, unique style with care for good materials and techniques that mean that your self-sewn wardrobe will be able to last a long time. Do you want to break away from rapidly changing trends and fast fashion? At StUF, you will gain knowledge about today's textile industry, which gives you the prerequisites to be able to make good, conscious choices in your own work and consumption. Here you are welcome both as a beginner and more experienced. The level will be adapted to the individual so that you get a year rich in learning regardless of previous knowledge.
At Sewing, Slow Fashion and Redesign, you will have great freedom in what you want to sew, so that the finished product is something that suits you and your style. This way you will end up with garments that you want to use and take care of rather than buying new.

You get to explore different urban spaces with a creative and practical approach in exciting projects with external and internal partners.
With a one-week trip to Norway, you will get to meet designers, companies, factories and entrepreneurs who work with fashion and material production.

THE SOUL TRAVELS SLOWLY
They say the best kind of journey is the one where the travel itself becomes part of the destination.
Welcome to a journey you won’t find anywhere else but at StUF.
At our urban and green folk high school, this becomes an adventure on rails — a journey for the memory books.
StUF sets out to capture lasting impressions while leaving only light climate footprints.
Along the way, you’ll meet people and inspiring initiatives that exist beyond the usual tourist paths.
You’ll experience street festivals and creative green projects, eat well, and enjoy live concerts.
You might even join urban exploration (UrbEx) in abandoned areas and connect with fascinating communities.
During the trip, you’ll also take part in sustainable projects in exciting European cities.
When you travel, you open yourself to growth — shaped by new impulses, cities, and cultures.
When you travel slowly, you notice the changes and experience more deeply.
That’s when we have time to become true explorers — discovering new places, spaces, and parts of ourselves.
With StUF’s slow travel, adventurous destinations, and meaningful missions, you’ll be part of a unique journey of discovery and personal growth.
It’s a way of moving — and at the same time, being moved by what you encounter.
