From Hardware to Software

By 15-09-2021

During Paris Design Week 2021

An exhibition of Neo design collective. As the winner of the Open Call of Atelier Néerlandais, they will introduce both the collective itself, and a future-proof case study.

Nina Van Bart founded Neo Design Collective in 2021 to collaborate on ‘a future-oriented and multidisciplinary innovation and design lab, specialized in strategic and immersive designs through digital and physical processes for tomorrow’s materials industry’.

For their case study ‘From Hardware to Software’, Neo Design Collective took inspiration from the past and present and looked ahead to tomorrow. They researched both the famous punch card looms of Joseph-Marie Jacquard and a primal model of the calculator, to finally arrive at today’s pixel and digital codes. The result of this research is a proposal to carry out textile production processes simultaneously in real life and with computers, without any loss of tactility or immersion. In this way, waste of materials is avoided, the process becomes more sustainable and efficient, and the senses are still fully stimulated. Curious what this means? Go and have a look, from your own home or during a visit to the beautiful Paris. Moreover, you are invited to contribute and become part of the exhibition.

Neo Design Collective
A future-oriented and multidisciplinary partnership, aiming to let the physical and the digital reinforce each other. They work towards an efficient and sustainable material industry for tomorrow.
