WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY PROPOSAL FOR NORSE PROJECTS LYS by Norse Projects was born to improve lives of people from urban and suburban areas. LYS is about connection between body, nature and technology. Moreover the main aim is to convince young habitants to take more care about everyday after dark safety in playful way using fashion design. The first idea was to crate a simple and user-friendly line of clothing with sewed in LED lights powered by solar panels that would help being more visible in the traffic, especially in Denmark. Using that advanced (for clothing) technology could be best solution (it was used before) but through design process development it was found that implementing reflective tape is cheaper alternative to the LED lights, not giving that many possibilities, but with real market potential. All things considered, LYS collection was designed including LED light garments like jackets that create identity of the line as well as wide range of products with reflective tape.
“Created to improve life. Good for all seasons.”
