INSPIRATIONS FROM RESONATIONS …

… inspirations continue to resonate from the beauty inside a Fazioli Piano
A platform wedge mule.
Holes on the frame – that I assume are an integral part of being able to create the depth of sounds – provide a lovely inspirations for the detail through the heel of the wedge.
The horizontal structure bars become a moulded section of the vamp, that provides a secure fit to the woven, textile upper – inspired by the pattern created by the strings and ribbons on the bridge…
And a raised footbed reflecting the levels in the frame.

 

A FAZIOLI INSPIRED HEEL …

Ever since my last post, I’ve been intrigued to see what might transpire by using the patterns and detail under the lid of a Fazioli Piano, as inspiration for a collection of shoes.
The lines that provide the structure of the plate.
The curves on the bridge, and shapes they create.

A plain bootie style helps to enhance this initial idea for a heel.

 

SHOESTORMING – TRANSFORMING

Playing gracefully with the previous sketch. Padded ‘bubbles’ for luxurious comfort ? Moulded into the upper.
‘Bubbles’ of sectional, replaceable tread ?
Ideas beget ideas.
