Designation

A collection of knitted vessels

Description

The soft object project aims to combine new digital crafts and classic industrial flat bed knitting techniques to promote the potential of textiles without production waste in the field of object and furniture design. The collection is organized in three families, all exploring a different aspect or aesthetic of the concept of ‘‘soft object’’. This project proposes a vocabulary of shapes and patterns for different typologies of knitted objects such as vases, vessels and bottles. Different thermoforming yarns are explored for their aesthetic qualities. Knitted in a spacer structure combined with short rows, they allow to knit dense but still soft volumes produced without any material loss.
