The presentation of these trends was held in Florence during INSIDE, an event organised by Leather & Luxury, a leading magazine for the footwear, fashion and accessories sectors and held by Carlo Sorrenti, materials wizard, supply chain management expert and CEO of DOMINO EGO and Pier Francesco Pitasi, creative director and trend forecaster of Mood Design.
The project involved our texture designer team, which interpreted the proposed suggestions embracing the key concepts and colour harmonies. We took cues from the mood boards, which we enriched with our ideas to try combinations and experiment with brand new textures.
This process led to the creation of seven textures with stories and very precise identities.
Every texture we design is meant to dress a product. There is an intrinsically pragmatic component to our work. We call this industrialized creativity approach, in which we integrate design and technical feasibility.
The challenge launched by INSIDE put us to the test. We had a mood board filled with ideas to give us inspiration and no product to “dress”.
Knowing the product, its usability and its positioning is fundamental for us, so we selected four objects suited to the event’s sectors and we treated them like four real projects:
- a perfume bottle, for luxury cosmetics, in Poetic interpretation
- a boot, a timeless classic, with the Sauvage style
- a sneaker, for high-end streetwear, with a Bizarre taste
- a handbag and its accessories with a Divine allure
Thanks to this expedient we built stories around the products giving them a very precise identity, inspired by the scenarios and dressing them with textures.
This event was an opportunity to interact with a world focused on every detail and every meaning. Thank you Leather & Luxury for the invitation.
