Fast eating

Cutlery

After research on cutlery my conclusion was that basically all cutlery is the same. Designers have already designed cutlery to be more hygienic or to encourage slower eating since it’s a significant problem in our society, with people eating too quickly.
However, this led me to think, what if I created cutlery for even faster eating? Therefore, I began
designing, exploring the concept of a ‘fast shape, aerodynamics, and then created a prototype.

Danger

Scarf

Danger is a scarf, and the concept behind it is that I was given an assignment: ‘make a scarf. I knew immediately that I didn’t want to create a typical scarf. I then defined what a scarf is, and my conclusion was that a scarf is comfy, soft, and warm. I then decided to make the total opposite of that – a dangerous scarf. This resulted in a ‘metallic’ scarf with vibrant colors to maintain the welcoming effect of a scarf.

The GroundSense Sneaker

Footwear

Bridging the Gap between Urban Comfort and Barefoot Connection

It focuses on the sensation of the foot in contact with the ground. To promote environmental awareness, the shoe utilizes fair trade fabric from a factory in Bangladesh.

The research behind the shoe is bassed on studying the barefoot experience to enhance our understanding of the connection between our feet and the ground.
The design aims to create the perception of having the ground inside the shoe itself.

Consideration was given to the concept of «dirtiness» during the shoe’s development. Many individuals are hesitant to walk barefoot not because of dirtiness, but due to the potential discomfort and hazards in urban areas.

Therefore, the shoe allows wearers to feel the ground realistically while keeping their feet protected, offering a complete experience of walking barefoot in nature even within a city setting.

Three types of natural ground simulations have been developed to enhance the experience of wearing the shoe.

Instrument Optique

Eyewear, Necklace

The concept was inspired by binoculars. The necklace consists of two separate pieces, both made entirely out of bent wood and inked wood. They feature different gradients of colors that gradually fade to expose the wood. This creates a necklace with intricate details in contrast to its size and minimalist shape.

For the eyewear, I use different types of lenses found in binoculars, such as magnification and de-magnification. In addition, I incorporate colored lenses that create a distortion of the world when they are worn, similar to what binoculars do.
