This bench is filled with water, resulting in a wavy sitting experience. Although it seems classic, when a second person takes place, the surprise of feeling each others movements evokes conversation. This great bench will spark up the vibes at the reception, at the coffee corner or in any other semi-public space!
Inflatable Clothing
During the process of my graduation collection I thought of making inflatable garments. My graduation project is about the loss of the North Pole and its influence on our clothing and emotional state. I came up with the idea to make inflatable garments when I did my research on protective materials and life vests. I came in contact with Dolfing through advice and there was an immediate positive connection. They invited me to visit the company to observe the production process. I was introduced to the machines that are used for sealing and they offered me the possibility to execute my project at Dolfing. I am happy that I got the opportunity to learn how to seal on a professional level – because it improved the quality of my project. They are very helpful, which made my experience very good. Sealing is a technique that I would like to continue to use if I get the chance again. www.sarahlauwaert.com
