RESHAPE15 | Winners

Announcing the winners of the RESHAPE15 | wearable technology competition 2015! 

This competition has been established to promote research, education, and production of digital ideas. The goal is to activate a prolific exchange of knowledge and information for the growth of an entire community joined by the love for innovation.

According to selection criteria, the Jury, formed by experts of fashion design, digital fabrication and computation design fields, selected three winners and two honorable mentions. RESHAPE15 received 70 applications from 25 different countries from all continents. The winners were selected for their conceptual ideas, understanding of design to production strategies, and market viability.

First place goes to Pinar Guvenc, Inanc Eray, Gonzalo Carbajo, and Marco Mattia Cristofori for their project Sponge Suit from USA. The project is swimwear that is environmentally proactive, economically sustainable, and intelligently manufactured by combining cutting edge 3D printing and nano-scale clean-tech material (super-hydrophobic carbon based material called the Sponge) research.

Second place is Selina Reiterer and Constantinos Miltiadis for their project JOHN PAUL GEORGE & ME from Austria. The project addresses interactive wearable textiles. And the project brings to children an interactive musical game, encouraging and stimulating their musical interest as well as their collaboration with each other to perform music.

Third place is Emmanouil Vermisso, Mate Thitisawat, Boutros Bou-Nahra, and Heather Akers for their project Carotid Thermo-Regulator from USA. The project is about reinventing the traditional neck Ruff as a liquid translator of bodily emotion. The idea resulting from the transformation of thermal data into graphics becomes an inherent ornamental quality of the piece.

The two honorable mentions include Judyta Cichocka and Zach Challies for their project Digital Outlook and Aino Aarnio-Juurinen and Visa Kupias for their project Avanto.

Check out all the entries.

RESHAPE 15 - wearable technology competition

RESHAPE 15 - wearable technology competition

Today, disciplines such as programming and electronics become highly transversal, blurring old boundaries and merging different fields of knowledge. Fashion has been already highly affected by this radical change. Clothes, shoes, and other accessories can now incorporate elements of hardware and software, generating a peculiar mix between fashion and computation that is incredibly fertile and inspiring. Data becomes beauty; interaction becomes emotion. As a result, a new esthetic is emerging. Reshape focuses on this, proposing with this competition, a new challenge for makers and designers.

i.materialise Rhino design challenge

McNeel Europe and i.materialise announce a 3D Printing Design Challenge with over $1000 in prizes.

We will be looking at people who show the power of Rhino and 3D printing in their designs, at designers and artists that can make “Future Forms Today.” We will consider the originality and presentation of the design and will also take into account if you maximize the power of 3D printing in your product. So is your product customizable? Or can your product only be built with 3D printing? We will also look if you got the most out of Rhino plug-ins like Grasshopper, T-Splines, RhinoGold, etc. in your design.
