Clemens Behr

Recently discovered Clemens Behr and am totally infatuated with his work, especially his installations. Multidisciplinary design, based on geometric forms taking over the space in 2D and 3D forms.

Intricate detail...

A few months ago I attended the launch of one of Chris Dent's exhibitions in the supersuperficial store in Covent Garden London. A London illustrator with intricate pen work which explores cityscapes and street culture around the world. His drawing skills combine architectural detail with an individual creative illustrative mark. Collaborating with brands such as Zoo York to produce wearable items which are unique and exciting. A designed tee is also available at supersuperficial. I look forward to seeing what the future cityscapes will inspire him to draw.
A few favourite pieces,

Cross-over contexts

Combining architecture, textile and fashion design in producing origami hats from 'House Of Architects Millinery....little seems to be known about the designers, but I love these designs and hopefully there will be lots of exciting products in the future from them.

What is the city to you?

"Geometry existed before the creation" - Plato

I recently discovered these costume style fashion pieces by Amila Hrustic who graduated from Product Design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Sarajevo.
The geometric forms and sci-fi design push the boundaries of fashion and accessories. The geometric forms relate to natural forms in micro scales that form complex organisms and structures. When these are magnified the forms and orientations of each individual structure along with the surface patterns form unusual and exciting design pieces beyond the norm.

Amila Hrustic explains 'The title of this diploma project is "Plato's Collection" and the main inspiration for the entire collection is located in Platonic solids. The collection consists of five unique dresses handcrafted from a combination of textiles and paper.'
