Inspirada en los viejos films de ciencia ficción y sus imaginativas visiones del futuro, la diseñadora holandesa Mandy Roos ha creado una colección de calzado que sirve de insumo para el libro Invasión of the foot carrier o ”invasión de plataformas para pies”. La colección busca motivar a la industria del calzado a través de esta colección que recrea anticuadas visiones sobre la tecnología en un look retro que confronta al pasado con el futuro.

La suela o plataforma es la base esencial en esta colección de calzado. A veces el pie es sumergido en la suela o absorbido por el cieno. Otras suelas tienen orugas. Ideas para la materialidad de las suelas son por ejemplo acrilato inspirado en plástico, silicona o goma, concreto y materiales semejantes al yeso, fluido, espuma o cieno. La transparencia juega un gran rol y tiene varias degradaciones. El libro de la idea ”invasión de plataformas para pies” es una visión inspiradora destinada para la industria del calzado.

งานชุดนี่ของ Mandy Roos คือการออกแบบรองเท้าโดยได้รับแรงบันดาลใจมาจากภาพยนต์วิทยาศาสตร์สมัยเก่าๆและจากจินตนาการของเธอเอง โดยใช้วัสดุเช่น ยาง พราสติก คือ วัสตุที่ไม่น่าจะนำมาทำรองเท้านั่นเอง ก็งานอาร์ตนี่นะ ไม่น่าจะนำมาใช้งานจริงได้อยู่แล้ว

Inspired by old school sci-fi films and their imaginary visions of the future, spaceships and unknown universes. Dated visions of technology and old-fashioned retro styles create a lighthearted, humorous reflection of the past vs the future.

In the ‘Invasion Of The Foot Carrier’ the sole is the essential basis. Sometimes the foot is sinked in the sole or absorbed by slime. Other soles have caterpillar tracks. Ideas for the materiality of the soles are, for example, plastic-inspired acrylate, silicone or rubber, concrete- and plaster-like materials, fluid, foam or slime. Transparency plays a big role and has various degradations.

The ‘Invasion Of The Foot Carrier’ is an inspirational vision meant for the footwear industry.

Designer Mandy Roos injects psychedelic playfulness into her series, “Invasion of the Foot Carrier.” Calling upon the specters of miniature foam spaceships, Shatneresque choreography, and gold lamé, Roos’s conceptual line of footwear is a Technicolor tumble into the days of past future.
In some of her designs, Roos plays with gelatinous gloop and gel; in others, she draws inspiration of extraterrestrial explorers and their iconic caterpillar treads. Though the whole collection could be described as whimsical, there’s also a sense of optimism: Roos describes the project as “an inspirational vision meant for the footwear industry.” Her designs are imbued the kind of lighthearted curiosity that defined the years when people still thought the World of Tomorrow was a light on the horizon.
With names like “Aurora Glow,” “Stargazer,” and “Moon Crawler,” Roos embraces the neon cheesiness of retro sci-fi glory. Her designs might not be realistic, but they’re not meant to be. And after so many dystopian futures, both imagined and predicted, it’s refreshing to see such bold cheerfulness.
