Timberland Construct : 10061
"Oak" & "Venus"
I began my process by exploring solutions from this curious world of ours, that I could cross pollinate into the Timberland 6-inch boots architecture.
For the "Oak" boot I utilized the textures and organisms that inhabit trees to envision a more robust 6-inch boot.
"Venus" is more mysterious, taking inspiration from carnivorous plants Featuring a lace-less closure system modeled on the microstructure of the fly trap itself.
This was an Instagram challenge and the brief was provided by the Construct team.
Brief: Submit an original design that reimagines the iconic Timberland 6-inch boot through the lens of TECTRA - a biologically focused design direction that forecasts the future of footwear and its position within the natural world.
