Agree, I’m going to sketch a few of these style concept out this week. And try and finalize a final direction soon.
As I was building this, I started just applying them in a certain pattern (to keep it interesting during the 10 hour build time) and got this idea as well. Really want to try some cool effects with different colored woods after this project is over.
Completely agree. This was meant more as a proof of concept that wood on a sneaker would work/resonate with other and that it would actually work. Plus I learned a little bit about this particular prototyping process a bit more.
Going to try and figure out a way to really push it a bit more out there. With this project the hardest thing Ive come across is trying differentiate between the inspiration ideas. The idea of the Eames as a form inspiration and the idea of Eames as a process inspiration. The ideal solution would be 50/50 split. But easier said than done.
