design sneakers with your recycling
Do you struggle with design sketching? Or are you looking for a new creative challenge to inspire you? If you’re searching for an exciting portfolio project or simply want to find fun ways to channel your creativity, get stuck in to our Sneaker Sculpture Workshop. With our on demand workshop you can learn how to build sneaker concepts and easily create physical design ideas using the household waste sitting in your recycling bin! After this workshop you will never look at a cereal box the same again, as everything around you becomes creative inspiration!
why our workshop?
Our founder, Helen always struggled with creating digital design renders and felt like she couldn’t match her peers within the industry. From that frustration Helen developed our signature design building technique and our Sneaker Sculptures workshop was born. Why stare at a blank sketchbook searching for inspiration when there is another way. Sneakers are physical objects, with 360 angles, not a flat one sided image!
build an
original design
Our workshop guides you to create unique designs, build something original and have fun along the way. Get out of you’re head and instantly into the materials, so you can create designs that you would have never have imagined from drawing alone. Find new value in waste material and challenge yourself to see how creative you can be using just your household waste as raw material!
Designing this way helps you to spontaneously engage with your ideas and make design decisions in a playful and carefree way. You can stop analysing what makes the “perfect” design and instead make something unexpected by being inspired by what you find around you.
