RESHAPE 17 | WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY COMPETITION

BRIEF
Wearables are becoming an active, supplemental skin that not only protect our body but also
facilitate functions such as growth, movement, respiration and nutrition or rehabilitate the
environment. Becoming a new medium able to regulate the relation between our body and its

outputs. Reshape aims to enhance these impulses in fashion design, proposing a new challenge to makers and designers: RESHAPE17 | Programmable Skins Competition.
