Process to Product
I haven't purchased clothing from a store in over a year…
I've become bored of the same old brands lacking personality, which reignited my interest in making clothes for myself.
Putting my artwork and the NFT artwork I own onto apparel and shoes has sparked great conversations. The response has been immediate and inspiring enough for me to add a few items to this website. So what does the process to product look like?
PALETTE SHOES
The story of this product design…
Outside of my daily job in software design, I enjoy creative projects: light installations, painting, or anything I can craft by hand. Through the years of painting, I’ve noticed a recurring question. “Where can I get some shoes with paint on them?” It sounds odd initially, but there is a genuine interest in paint-splattered shoes and apparel, which is why I created the E1 PALETTE SHOES.
CREATIVE TEE
The story of this product design…
Humans are becoming device zombies, and Instagram has explicitly played a role in this content injection into our lives. I know, I know, that's a little extreme, but I do feel constant content consumption impacts our minds and our ability to think of new ideas. The word CREATIVE with the spray paint crossed out in Instagram colors represents how social media has killed the creative the symbolism of D1 CREATIVE T-SHIRT.
I've been having a blast making clothes for myself, experimenting with CC0 and IP rights, and exploring new mediums. Who knows what comes of these ideas, but for now, I'm enjoying not having to go to the store ;)
