Description

Humans do not only exist in architectural spaces; they also shape their living environment through the garments they wear. In both cases, the body and its individual characteristics are decisive. “Spatial Bodies” combine the different spatial concepts of architecture and fashion into partition elements that allow users to influence their environment in a similar way as their clothing style. The formal language of the objects is derived from abstracted sewing patterns. They can be used individually or as ensembles and are intended to positively influence the surrounding space through their playful design language and materiality.
