tape it selection of diploma textile design, 2002  // SWISS Buisness lounge Airport Zurich 2009


Domino effects or chain reactions have been the method to create an inspiring collection, a fund of ideas with drafts, cloths, pictures, clothes, accessories and interiors presented in their various stages of development.
The adhesive tape marks my diploma collection.

I developed a new technique to make clothes seamless and reversible by using several different adhesive textile tapes.

Blinds / tape it 2002 and Lucky Loft Gallery Hamburg 2006

Beige painter's masking tape stuck directly on the window. The several layers change the aspect and the effect of the pattern according to the changing of the light situation outside and inside the room. In sunshine, the shadow is displayed all over the room and creates a nice atmosphere.

I like it, because everybody can do it, it is cheap and effective! I want to animate people to improvise in their everyday environment, and be creative themselves, .... this is one way.

My idea to create patterns with simple painters masking tape on the windows was published in the first edition of 'Patterns in Design, Art and Architecture'.

The same idea used with coloured paper- and textile tapes. Stuck together on both sides, used as a room divider or curtain, also changing its colour and pattern according to the light conditions.

SWISS November 2009

Starting with the BLINDES idea, I already used in my textile design diploma 2002 tape it; I developed a series of patterns forroom dividers and walls in the Business class Lounge of Swissport International Ltd. atAirport Zurich in the New Terminal Dock Midfield. 

I worked with the same technique: 3 cm wide stripes of foil layered differently to compose a variation of patters. The complex picture is put together with four to five layers of patterns combined in different angles and densities. Stuck on the backside of a glass window, and illuminated with LED panels. The layered material creates new shapes and gives the pattern a depth.

It was collaboration with the Architect Daniela Saxer
Setup with Simone Häcki

The INTERNET TABLE, 4 Layers (180 x 220 cm) directly stuck on the glass, and illuminated with daylight, so the pattern changes its aspects, according to the light situation.
