Iris van Herpen ~ Architectonics
Iris van Herpen unveils an alluring collection inspired by Aquatic Architecture and Bionic
Innovations that offers a glimpse into the future.
Paris Haute Couture ~ Drawing inspiration from the future of floating cities and the concept of bionic design, this pioneering collection reflects a vision where humans inhabit both land and offshore environments. To envision a future where our built environment becomes a natural extension of the vast aquatic landscapes, creating a harmonious coexistence between humanity and the world's oceans.
Van Herpen's creative journey began with the visionary ideas of Jacques Rougerie, a French
Architect and Oceanographer, known as the ‘Architect of the Sea’. Rougerie's work bridges the
gap between scientific exploration and architectural innovation, offering a deeper understanding
of the intricate relationship between the oceans and our built environment. His designs of
underwater habitats and floating laboratories, informed by his expertise as a marine biologist
and architect, have inspired van Herpen's exploration of aquatic urbanism.
Other looks of the collection are influenced by the revolutionary World’s First Floating City,
‘Oceanix’ that is currently being built in South Korea. As the first large manifestation of this new
form of waterborne urbanism, designed by starchitect Bjarke Ingels, Oceanix integrates zero
waste and circular systems, closed-loop water systems, net-zero energy, and coastal habitat
regeneration. This new generation of architects show a radical shift in urban planning and a blueprint for resilient cities of the future.
Driven by R&D, the collection materializes the principles of parametric architecture that is known
for its fluidity, fragmentation, and shifting patterns. The designs dynamic energy is evident in the explosive patterns of light and shadow that vibrate around the body, the fractal forms, geodesic voids, and distorted perspectives that redefine fashion's traditional boundaries.
Van Herpen draws from the aquatic urbanism movement by focusing on the physiological,
behavioral, and structural adaptations of biological organisms to create new Couture techniques
that blur the boundaries between fashion and floating architecture. Each look was therefor digitally modeled before the physical draping process started.
The cutting-edge ’Biophilic’ technique is developed from lasercutting architectural lineworks that
are bonded together to serve as molds, in which a marble-textured silicone is injected with syringes into the fine lasercut outlines. At the same time abalone-shell flakes are inlaid by hand
into gradients before the silicone is settling. After settling, a final transparent layer of silicone is
injected to enhance the iridescent shell shards gracefully.
The daring ‘Oceanix’ technique is developed to paint bursting patterns in space. These graphic
polygon patterns explode skillfully from order to chaos through the movement of the body, as
the polygons are deconstructed in air by the models moving. Fine fiberglass rods are carefully
balanced to distribute an exact amount of weight and vibration into the dissected geodesic
bursts, creating an interplay of fluidity and fragmentation.
The harmonious color palette of this season combines graphic contrasts of white and blacks
that are highlighted with metallic silver, bronze and gold detailing. An oceanic mood is created
through soft tones of mint-green that are mixed with abalone-blue, turquoise and pearlescent
shell shades.
The ARCHITECTONICS collection dares to imagine humanity’s next frontier: a world with
waterborne urbanism that harmonizes with marine ecosystems.
Global concerns grow as 90 percent of large cities worldwide are vulnerable to rising sea levels,
and over 410 million people are predicted to be at risk.
This season Van Herpen's designs draw attention to the visionary ideas of Oceanix, the world’s
first floating city and the important new generation of architects that show us the ingenuity and
desirability of waterborne architecture. Challenging our conventional notion of living spaces,
each design encapsulates the duality of our existence, where land and water intertwine to see a
future where we seamlessly inhabit both realms.

  • @cherieodell9048
    @cherieodell9048 Před 2 měsíci

    Watching how the fabric moves in very minute detail because of the construction of the outfits and the embellishments on them is fun. However, I don't really like the weird correlation between the outfits and the people they were placed on. That is kind of... icky because it communicates... some things that you would rather not think about, even if it is pretend. I think it's just creativity at play, but, fashion communicates, and you have to be kind of more in tune with reality and let go of some of the creativity and thoughtless sporadic let whatever happen happen when you get too intensely involved with the whole fashion statement by being too precise in ways you're really not analyzing in depth that much in every respect is my opinion. I know it's all just an artistic experiment, honestly, and in some ways it's really fun, but in other ways it's kind of gross. I think when you become too expert, maybe you should become even more expert and test it all out. Maybe that's too much to do, but I wish... it were possible. I guess I have mixed feelings about the show.
