Slow Light Jakob Schlaepfer

2013_Slow_Light_Jakob_Schlaepfer__A5_07

Reflecting materials made of minute glass beads form the basis for this couture collection, which has been created with the help of the most sophisticated modern technology. Its fascination is based on the constant interaction between the light situation, the textiles and the angle of view from which you see them. Delicate designs have been superimposed on reflecting surfaces by a laser engraving technique. Depending on the lighting, the patterns may stand out in sharp contrast or disappear altogether. Soft embroideries of reflecting yarn flash into view; shimmering islands of light in the form of flowers and flecks glow on a matt background.

Comments of the nominators

An exemplary combination of aesthetics and functionality, beautifully expressed in the changing appearance of this collection and opening up new avenues of freedom to the designer. The versatile formal idiom testifies to a delight in experimentation.
