STUDIO JORIS DE GROOT Explore these innovative projects at the Sustainable Innovations Forum in the Keyhouse in Hall 7<\/p>\n

Designer Joris de Groot often collaborates directly with factories, setting up his workplace within their grounds to get a deep understanding of their materials and innovate with their existing techniques. This allows him to blend traditional craftsmanship with industrial processes, resulting in unique and sustainable designs.<\/p>\n

His project \u201c2000N Pressed Shoe\u201d (2018) emerged from his project \u201cIn4nite II\u201d with Freudenberg, a company specializing in car interior materials. Joris explored the potential of Colback\u00ae, a material used in car upholstery, to create shoes. By understanding and experimenting with the molding process used in automotive interiors, he transformed Colback\u00ae into a fashion material. \u201c2000N Pressed Shoe\u201d is distinctive for its use of industrial techniques to create aesthetic details, showcasing the intricate patterns and textures that arise from this innovative process.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n

\u201cRecycled Raincoat\u201d (2021) is another collaboration between Joris and Dolfing Druten. Together, they tackled the issue of cutting waste from rain jacket production. By researching the shapes of leftover fabric pieces, Joris developed patterns that could be welded together to form new raincoats. This approach not only minimizes waste but also transforms discarded materials into valuable products, highlighting his innovative use of existing resources to create sustainable fashion.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n

For \u201cWeld Bag\u201d (2013), Joris partnered with Dolfing Druten, a manufacturer of work clothes and rain gear, to develop a collection of bags. He repurposed high-frequency welding techniques typically used for creating waterbeds and rainwear to design unique bag handles and shapes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
