in style, by Shawden Sheabar, August 6th, 2010Spon Diogo’s rudimentary predator and prey relation, catch or be caught

For A/W 2010, Mia Lisa Spon and Rui Andersen Rodrigues Diogo, the duo behind Copenhagen-based label Spon Diogo, looked to the concept of biomimicry for inspiration. It is the idea that we as the human-race emulate our ecological surroundings and are living simulations of our environment.

The morphological aspects remain heavily attuned to material selection, tailoring, simplicity, and construction.
