Hongkong I

The team used one year's time to succeed in making an A4 paper size material.

It saves 20% of material compared with traditional practice.

Compare this principle, say no, you can do it.

A little change may save a lot of money for your company.

 

A pair of women's flat shoes with the same appearance and common styles are the products of environmental protection concept.

He Haode, a special tutor of Hongkong science and Technology College, spent a year studying and redesigning the team. He successfully made popular flat shoes with a size of A4 paper, which saved 20% of materials compared with traditional methods.

He Haode said that when designing new shoes, we should consider the shape and use the arc paper to cut.

Designers have unique persistence. Even if there are more stitches and imperfect feelings, they often waste a lot of materials.

Based on the principle of sustainable development, the He Haode team designed the "zero scrap" rectangular flat shoe pattern by skillfully tailoring the layout, reducing the amount of waste when making shoes to 20%, and making the old clothes materials again.

Extend the life of each pair of shoes.

The new design cuts the rectangular material into shoe with a larger quadrilateral piece. "Because the rectangle can be laid on the flat surface, it can be cut to just right", and the principle is like a jigsaw puzzle.

He Haode pointed out that although the finished product is more than one fashion to two stitches, "but it doesn't make any difference in appearance."

Used jeans turn into boots.

Upgrading, the more popular in the fashion world in recent years, he borrowed the concept of second-hand jeans into green boots, and used the original design as a pocket, zipper and so on as a boot, both fashion and sustainable principles.

In order to extend the life of each pair of shoes, one of the team members, Li Hongxi, a special tutor of Design Institute, integrated personalization into the design, making shoes like Transformers to reduce waste.

Personalized shoe soles with special buttons to connect the upper surface, if worn, can be replaced; inside can be replaced by different breathable or warm material, suitable for different weather.
