I started with this blog in relation to my graduation which commences next year. To be more precise, right now I'm working hard to be able to graduate in the summer of 2011. This blog is basically to document the entire process of my current projects. I guess you can also see it as a diary of what I'm doing at uni.
The idea is to create different interpretations of the dress shoe or classical men's shoe. This comes forth from my fascination for the dress shoe itself, apart from that you can see it as a reaction to the subtle development in these kinds of shoes. What I want to achieve here is to find the border of how far you can go with reinterpreting these kinds of shoes but still being wearable. Break free from the traditional image it has and giving it a fresh new look. I think that's about enough information for now.
These two shoes are going to form the first series as a modern interpretation of the dress shoe I made last year. Followed by a second series of three more models as a more expressive, outspoken interpretation.
