NLC Design #7: Fernando Brízio


These are Fernando Brízio's renewable clothing.

I think this is cool - not so much for dresses, but something else - curtains maybe.

The idea is that the dress is constructed with pockets into which washable felt tip makers are placed, the markers bleed and create a pattern on the dress, and then it is washed and the process starts over again - not sure how renewable that is, but it's cool.

If you google him you will find that her works a lot with bleeding ink.

Dolphin


This work is from Paul Kinsky.

He emailed me this amazing work and said, "I made an algorithm that takes as input a 3d model and outputs pieces that can be pieced together to make a real life version of that 3d model."
