Code, Craft and Couture

This October, I had the opportunity to present my work at the Fashion Tech Farm during Dutch Design Week, alongside designers and innovators exploring new possibilities for fashion. Seeing my garments in this context was a meaningful moment in the development of my practice.

My work at Dutch Design Week explored how 3D printing can be used as a textile technique. From modular structures made of hundreds of individual components to intricate patterns printed directly onto fabric, each project investigates a different way of translating digital designs into wearable pieces.

What makes this moment particularly special is how recently I started exploring 3D-printed fashion. What began as curiosity and experimentation has developed into a growing body of work, opportunities to exhibit, and connections with people who share an interest in the future of fashion.

Earlier this year, I received the Best Maker Innovation Award at Maker Days Eindhoven. Having my work featured at Dutch Design Week became another important milestone — and an encouragement to keep experimenting, pushing the boundaries of the technique and discovering where it can lead.

For me, this is what Code, Craft and Couture is about: not having all the answers, but exploring what becomes possible when you combine digital tools, hands-on making and the willingness to try something new.

This is only the beginning.
