Inspired by the foundations of Origami, FOLDS is a multi-purpose footwear solution that integrates high, medium and low top styles into a singular shoe.
Entirely crafted and cut from one sheet of material, FOLDS is designed with sustainability, user, and cost in mind, following the theme of my Human-Centred Design Engineering module.
The project won the Imperial College DESIRE award, given to the group with the most innovative Design outcome.
finalised project brief:
How might we reduce the number of different shoes that people need to buy in order to reduce an accumulation of unused shoes and limit material consumption?
