I agree. Lady Gaga would wear all of these, only she might have a lot of balsa wood splinters and paper cuts to deal with.

If Calatrava was a departure point for this, much more attention should have been given to how the forces are distributed, ie the tension cables being used for compression. In fact there is no part of a shoe that is held purely in tension.

These are prototypes, not actual shoes. The artist is a designer, not an architect. The artist’s statement was that the functionallity was secondary… and so on.

I appreciate your homage to Calatrava. I also appreciate your young age when you made these. I like your design very much.

The fashion is great, but I don’t think its safe to use.

I agree, but only if we insist on architecture. Try turning it around, seeing harp strings.

i really don't understand why some people make randome comments, without even reading the text located below the photographed work…?
