SOMEthing in the water
Second-year graduate project Dublin Institute of Desing.
/
Task: to design and construct a three-piece capsule collection.
/
Theme: SUSTAINABILITY.
/
My collection "Something in the water" is inspired by plastic in our Oceans.
/​
I'm using Econyl fabrics made from regenerated Ocean Plastic and zero waste pattern drafting.

Loved and upcycled
I make new things out of old ones. That's pretty much a magic...
/
Laptop cases and limited collections of bags & wallets handmade from
repurposed kites, sails, wetsuits, bike tubes and tents.
/
Remade in the North West of Ireland.

Inspired by a discrepancy in perception of the beauty of moths vs butterflies.
