Wrinkled skin
Knit design 


A fictional collaboration with the furniture company Moroso, 2017



Designed and knitted fabric for furniture by me.


What


Textile design for furniture


DESIGN PROPOSAL knitted textile inspired by the wrinkles and the beautiful transitions and patterns in them.

Why



The task was to develop a concept suitable for Moroso's assortment.
My design proposal is a padded sofa that by the material tells a story about ageing and the beauty of it.

From my analysis of Morosos assortment I wanted to design a furniture that was innovative, had character and a story tell.


Selection of Moroso's assortment, showing furniture with character and elegance.



How



Concept developed from the idea of materialising the wrinkle's properties in relation to the body, translated into a padded piece of furniture.
