Meet Iris
Textile Designer
Iris is an Amsterdam-based fashion & product designer with a passion for experimental shapes and structures.
Artisanal craftsmanship and innovative techniques go hand in hand in her work, which includes eye catching textile wearables and interior objects such as lampshades and wall panels. She has a penchant for old garments, utensils, and furniture and when possible, she respectfully combines the old and the new.
During her graduation at the Amsterdam Fashion Institute in 2011, she developed a collection of fabrics and unique pieces that emerged from broad research into the use of innovative techniques. She examined the potential of textiles and tried to give it constructive value, without the use of a sewing machine, stitches or glue.
By experimenting with laser cutting, she developed a technique in which the fabric is cut into small puzzle pieces that form the basis of the design process. By connecting the puzzle pieces together manually, inspiring shapes and structures are created that can form various products.
After completing two fashion educations, where she developed both technical and conceptual skills, she decided that the corporate fashion industry wouldn't provide enough gratification, meaning, and freedom to her work.
Therefore, she chose an independent path and dove deep into her newfound experimental technique, in which she saw great potential for various applications. And maybe even more significant; working with this technique might seem complex, but the repetitive manual factor and soothing infinity it evokes, cleanses the (monkey)brain and can be very meditative. Busy hands, quiet mind!
Her atelier is located in a lovely neighbourhood! During the summer, the workshops will take place in her garden.Ā
