A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Clothing could be described as architecture in motion. Julia Koerner, a designer based between Salzburg and Los Angeles, operates at the crossroads between architecture and product design. She has recently been working on a number of projects in the couture field, both independently and in collaboration. Here she describes how these creations – largely inspired by the forms and growth patterns of nature – have utilised various additive manufacturing techniques to explore the possibilities of folding, nesting and smocking in digital space. From seamlessness to the ability to adapt to temperature, light and emotion, these garments appear to naturally grow on the body or to animate it.
