Meet the Designers

Leah Buechley (USA) is a specialist in wearables and designer of the Lilypad Arduino, an e-textile construction kit. She told us all about the uses of new electric designer materials in e-Fashion and wearables, and demonstrated an array of new materials.

Marina Toeters (NL) is a fashion designer who worked with technicians to create a garment where fashion and technology become one. She showed her "by-wire experiments" and a project she did for Philips:
The Lumalive project.
