| DESIGN NAME: Yin Yang PRIMARY FUNCTION: Clasp INSPIRATION: A friend working as stylist is creating embroidery bracelets. He asked me to create clasps for his bracelets. So I had some constraints which imposed me to create a clasp with the same logic and spatial disposition as the usual "S" clasp. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Clasp inspired from one of the most old and most simple clasp : the "S" clasp. The Yin Yang clasp offers the same functionality, the same spatial disposition but a new design, rich in meaning and esthetic. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Using a very ancestral configuration of clasp (the "S" clasp"), the Yin Yang clasp offers however a new esthetic and a meaning. It is at the same time a clasp thanks to its functionnality and a decorative element (pendent, ...) thanks to it's look. It can also be worn as philosophical expression. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: Started in Mei 2015 in Brussels and finished (for the design part) in Brussels in Mei 2015 |
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: Prototype is made from a silver wire which is folded. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: Can be realized in many sizes. A very important technical point : the end of the wire has to touch and cover the rest of the clasp to ensure that the necklace or the bracelet will not come undone. This clasp can be used with various necklaces or bracelets. TAGS: Clasp , jewelry , bracelet , pendent , necklace RESEARCH ABSTRACT: 1) Conceptual research to choice the good spatial configuration adapted with the functional need and after a conceptual research to create a new design respecting the spatial configuration , 2) Objective : create a new design for he "S clasp" configuration, 3) Methodology : mathematical and physical deductions, very difficult to explain because this part of work is very instinctive, abstract and coming partly from the subconscient 4) No special tool used CHALLENGE: I had no obstacles for the design, as already said it was fast and instictive. As for all my other designs, the most difficult challenge for me is the marketing.
