From the plane to the volume
The activity aims to convey tangible concepts of shape and geometry in the creations of the fashion designer from Getaria. By configuring different geometric figures on a pattern, in two dimensions, and developing them by solving simple problems, the participants will obtain three-dimensional pieces adapting to the human body. Become a textile architect!
