This animation of dancing wool characters has been created to coincide with an installation by London designers Doshi Levien for textile company Kvadrat at Stockholm Design Week this week.
“We wanted to created a ensemble of characters that celebrate the sartorial and spacial qualities of wool,” Jonathan Levien told Dezeen.
Designed to showcase all the wool fabrics in Kvadrat‘s collection, Doshi Levien‘s characters formed from geometric shapes and volumes fly, bounce and spin around each other in the short animation.
The 12 colourful characters in the parade were inspired by theatre costumes from the early Bauhaus period.
The film was directed and produced by Studio AKA, with music by David Kamp.
The installation will be displayed at Kvadrat’s showroom from 5-8 February during Stockholm Design Week, which begins on 4 February.
Our recent posts about the designer’s work include an ice cream cake shaped like a moon and furniture inspired by the Indian city of Chandigarh.
