Ubiquitous Augmented Fashion

Current developments in AR and digital fashion allow us to fantasise about a future where we will be able to digitally augment the way we dress and present ourselves.

We use design fiction to explore the social implications of integrating this technology in our daily lives. We started off by defining a future scenario by extrapolating from current trends, in which AR glasses and the AR metaverse have become ubiquitous. We used this as a basis for autoethnographic exploration, in which we experienced what it was like to design and wear augmented fashion.

Our experiences from this exploration allowed us to further construct our fictional futures, with the designed outfits functioning as diegetic prototypes. With this, we organized multiple discussion sessions with people with various levels of knowledge on the topic. We are currently hard at work processing and analysing our data and are excited about sharing our results soon.

Creativity & Aesthetics

Throughout my bachelor’s studies, I have developed my expertise in Creativity & Aesthetics, which has been a significant strength and passion of mine throughout my design journey. I believe these areas are fundamental for any designer, as they allow for innovative problem-solving and leave a lasting impression on users. I have improved my ability to imagine and bring to life visually attractive and innovative designs. Through coursework and practical projects, I have explored different techniques and approaches to enhance the visual appeal of my creations.

Courses like Aesthetics of Interaction, Exploratory Sketching, Design and Sensorial Form and my Projects of which primarily my FBP, have helped me experiment with a range of materials, colors, textures, and forms, enabling me to create designs that evoke emotions and engage users on a sensory level. My portfolio showcases the evolution of my Creativity & Aesthetics expertise, highlighting my commitment to pushing design boundaries while maintaining a harmonious balance between form and function.

By combining my passion for creativity and a keen sense of aesthetics, I aim to create designs that inspire and seamlessly integrate into users’ lives. My work reflects my growth as a designer, demonstrating my ability to merge artistic expression with practical utility. As I embark on the next phase of my design journey, I am eager to explore new horizons in Creativity & Aesthetics, continually refining my skills and pushing the boundaries of design.
