Hussein Chalayan Shows A New Image Of The Body We’ve seen what avant-garde British fashion designer Hussein Chalayan can do with technology and clothing—we’ll never forget that feeling of awe and fascination when we first saw his S/S 2007 line of animatronic dresses (which zipped, flipped and reconfigured right before our eyes), or the pixelated LED dresses from F/W 2007 and the laser...

Bio Design | The work of bio-designers generates...
When the materials of design are not plastics, wood, ceramics or glass, but rather living beings or living tissues, the implications of every project reach far beyond the form/function equation and any idea of comfort, modernity or progress. Design transcends its traditional boundaries and its implications aim straight at the heart of the moral sphere, toying with our deepest-seated beliefs. The...

Symposium: I Don't Know Where I'm Going But I Want...
