womens shoes collection . This collection was inspired by the idea of “the covered object ≠ the original object under the cover”. Through my research, I photographed nine different locations throughout Milan that were under construction, including Milan’s Duomo. This project specializes in creating conceptual footwear as a reinterpretation of architecture in a contemporary way, by focusing on the “under construction” areas and disregarding the architecture itself. Within this project, I wanted to develop a new typology of footwear design, having the shoe itself represent a symbolic object. However, it is crucial to consider the final result and its primary function, a sense of balance must be considered achieve a recognizable prototype of footwear design. Combining traditional techniques, innovative silhouettes, and multiple materials, the result is a high quality craftsmanship and fully functional footwear.
