KNIT COLLECTION
I
STARTED THIS PROJECT WITH DECONSTRUCTING AND GEOMETRICALLY TRANSFORMING CERTAIN CLASSICAL GARMENT PATTERNS. I WAS THINKING ABOUT THE DIFFERENT CONTRASTS, BOTH IN MATERIALS AS IN PATTERN DEVELOPMENT. I FOUND IT INTERESTING HOW TWO-DIMENSIONAL GEOMETRY TRANSFORMS ITSELF INTO FLUID ORGANIC FORM. TO ACHIEVE THIS WE NEEDED TO USE THE RIGHT MATERIALS. IN ORDER TO CONTINUE THIS CONCEPT I COMBINED BLACK AND WHITE WITH KNITTED AND WOVEN FABRICS.

PYRUS
P
YRUS IS THE FRUIT OF THE NATURE. THIS EXPERIMENTAL PROJECT WAS CREATED AS A TRANSFORMATION OR CHANGING THE PURPOSE OF CLOTHING ITSELF. ASKING MYSELF QUESTIONS SUCH AS: WHAT IS A GARMENT? WHAT COVERS OR UNCOVERS US? PYRUS IS SOME KIND OF ALIEN THAT FELL FROM THE SKY ON A UNPREDICTABLE WORLD. IT TRANSFORMS ITSELF INTO A ABSTRACT BIZARRE HUMANOID CREATURE, BUT ONLY FOR ONE REASON. TO BE INVISIBLE.

I
N THIS PROJECT I WANTED TO PRESENT THE ESSENCE AND SOME KIND OF BEGINNING OF MY DESIGN DEVELOPMENT. I WAS NOT FOCUSING ON CURRANT INSPIRATION I RATHER WANTED TO START MY DESIGN EVOLUTION. I WAS ASKING MYSELF WHAT ARE MY RULES AND WHAT ACCOMPANIES ME THROUGH MY DESIGN DEVELOPMENT. THE CONCEPT OF CONTRAST HAS ALWAYS BEEN PRESENT IN BOTH OVERALL IMAGE AS IN CONSTRUCTION AND DETAILS. I UNDERTOOK THIS PROJECT BOTH TECHNICALLY AND CREATIVELY. I USED THE CONTRAST OF ORGANIC AND GEOMETRIC FORMS AND HOW TO COMBINE THE RIGHT MATERIALS TO FOR DESIRED SHAPE OF THE GARMENT.

I CLEARED THE FORMS OF CLASSIC PATTERNS TO SUCH AN EXTEND THAT I’VE COMPLETELY TRANSFORMED AND DECONSTRUCTED THEM INTO NEW SIMPLE GEOMETRIC SHAPES. I WANTED TO ACHIEVE COMFORT IN A WAY THAT SHARP GEOMETRICALLY BUILT PATTERNS WOULD ORGANICALLY ADAPT TO A HUMAN BODY. ABOVE ALL I WAS THINKING HOW TO LIBERATE AND GET RID OF TENSION AND CLAUSTROPHOBIA. HOW WILL A PERSON EXPERIENCE SAFETY AND FREEDOM IN THESE GARMENTS IN CONTRAST TO TODAY’S SOCIETY. THE CONTRAST BETWEEN CONTROLLED SOCIETY AND THE HUMAN FREE SPIRIT.

S
MALL LEATHER GOODS COLLECTION IS AN EXTENSION OF PSURDIEV COLLECTION BUT IT’S ALSO A SEPARATE PROJECT. I STARTED VERY FLAT WITH DRAWING DIFFERENT GEOMETRIC SHAPES. I WANTED TO ILLUSTRATE THE CONTRAST BETWEEN THE NATURAL LEATHER AND CONTROLLED GEOMETRIC FORMS. THESE FORMS ARE SOME SORT OF HOMAGE TO ARCHITECT EDVARD RAVNIKAR. HIS ROUGH AND SOMETIMES INDUSTRIAL AND BRUTALIST AESTHETICS HAS BEEN PRESENT IN MY EVERYDAY LIFE, WHICH HAD A POWERFUL IMPACT ON MY DEVELOPMENT AND DESIGN AESTHETICS.
