Amazed by Butterfly Wings

My new concept was on butterfly, after studying so much about them, I was so amazed with the structure of the wing.

Butterfly wing's color don't fade.
It's made of crystal nanostructures, called gyroid
The gyroid are made of chitin
The butterfly wing solar cells can convert 1% of the light energy that strikes them into electricity.

New Project

This girl is very cool. http://supersurfaces-valentina.blogspot.com/

So, I'm taking this paper engineering concept into my handbag and footwear. Hopefully, by the end of this quarter, I can come up with an expandable bag?

3D Printed Show by Pauline Van Dongen

Says van Dongen, "Is the body the content and the clothes the container, or is it the other way round? My work explores the void between the body and the garment. Alienating shapes or capsules floating around the body are turned into clothes, like organic sculptures. Metal knitwear and the contrast between dark shades and bright tops create a sharp, minimalistic feel. In collaboration with Freedom Of Creation I developed an innovative shoe, which is printed three-dimensional."

Made of laser sintered nylon, one of FOC's manufacturing partners, CNC speedform, supported the creation of the futuristic concept by producing all of the featured shoes.

Oxford shoes are simply shoes with laces. The term is usually used to describe men’s dress shoes, but even sneakers and women’s high heeled pumps are considered oxfords as long as they lace up. Womens oxford shoes are also known as: oxfords, lace-ups, and lace-up shoes. Womens oxford shoes are usually made of leather or suede, but some less expensive or vegan varieties feature non-animal hide shoes.
