DESIGN NAME: Vestiges
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Cuff
INSPIRATION: A unique 3D design inspired by Islamic architecture that allows you to relive the experience of wonder that comes from discovering art with hypnotic properties: the art of Islamic geometric patterns. With this piece of jewelry, you will leave with the memory of a universal heritage captured by a jewel that shakes up traditional codes of Oriental jewelry with an innovative design.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: he different pieces of the Vestiges collection are interpreted as vestiges brought to light by an archaeological dig. Jewelry appears to have suffered the ravages of time, with patterns filled in by sediment or rings deformed by the pressure of sediment. The basic hexagonal pattern organized in a six-pointed star refers to the stars, and the sky, and its infinite repetition evokes the concept of infinite power in Islamic architecture.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Redefining Oriental jewelry, not just in terms of what it can be, but also in terms of its appearance and inspiration. A reinterpretation that is in line with contemporary times. New technologies are an integral part of the jewelry design process; they enable me to push the boundaries of design to its technical limits and create creations with intricate, captivating, and timeless patterns.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in Lille (France) and finished in 2019.
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Fashion, Apparel and Garment Design
