Vegetable fur

This faux fur, crafted from plant-based fibers and dyes, enables the duo to investigate an alternative to animal and synthetic materials.Their custom process expertly achieves visual and tactile effects while embracing a responsible production methodology: the shapes are directly drawn flat on the weaving line, thereby minimizing waste generation.
