research concept
Molecular biology is a source of myriad well-validated structures & shapes
These forms can be deconstructed or abstracted and used as building blocks to create novel
wearables and explore unprecedented applications.

design questions
• How can biological structures and forms be meaningfully deconstructed and applied to wearables?
• What novel and functional architectures can be created
• When thinking of these geometries as building blocks, which elements must be held constant and which may be stretched or changed?
• What applications might there be for such forms in other realms?

connections
• Outside design world– Diana Eng– Burdastyle– Greg– Nervous System
• Funding– IndieGoGo– Kickstarter

challenges
• Social assumptions about viruses– This concept doesn’t address genetic content of
viruses, either the genetic material encased inside viruses, genetic variance, evolution, or mutations
– Too many constraints with icosahedron• Scalability– Can this be a small business?
• Technical– Must build a friendlier interface than what’s out there

What to keep
• Things I like: – the architectural/structural appearance– DIY/customizability– Unexpected shapes
• Things I want to create: – movement with body– juxtaposition of rigidity with fluidity

tents
• A million little geometric pockets sewn into it, and you have a few different models that you can “build” by strategically inserting boning or placing rigid inserts into certain pockets
• A map for which bits to put where to create certain shapes
