什么是时尚，什么是设计，什么是科技，跨界结合是什么样的？ 抱着这样的疑问，看各家探索和创作，相信在这次的2015米兰设计周上可以收获不少。

UNX2女鞋，United Nude创意女鞋设计，2015

我们想要为UNX2设计一双鞋，双脚的形态部分可见，以凸显脚步力学和鞋子在运动中可以创造的视觉效果。

我们对鞋子在静态和动态中可以产生的形状尤其感兴趣。当穿鞋者静止时，脚步的曲线在鞋子内隐约可见，覆盖双脚的弯曲垂直条带暗示了足部的运动形态。然而一旦穿鞋者开始走动时，就创造了不断变动的透明层次，垂直线条产生了一种断续画面，让人联想起早期定格摄影。UNX2鞋创造了一种运动模式，在运动中创造不同的形象，制造出动态效果。

我们的另一个目标是在最后成品中使得设计的“过程”可见：采用数字策略测试鞋子内双脚位置。既具有物理上的透明性，又具有现象上的透明性，既展示了设计过程，又展示了运动过程。

垂直条带和马蹄形状的鞋子使双腿有延长感，并创造了一种动物双足的效果。

UNX2, United Nude, 2015

With the design for UNX2, we wanted to dress the foot in such a way as to make its form partially visible, to highlight the mechanics of the foot and the visual effects that can be created by the shoe in motion.

We were particularly interested in the kinds of images the shoe could create, both when static and when in motion. When the wearer is still, the curve of the foot can be glimpsed within the shoe and the dynamics of movement are suggested by the curving vertical ribbons that envelop it. However, once the wearer begins to move, shifting levels of transparency are created and the vertical lines create a staccato rhythm reminiscent of early stop-motion photography. The UNX2 shoe creates patterns of movement and produces a dynamic form of image-making through motion.

It was also our intention to make visible the “process” of design in the final object: the digital strategy that was employed when testing the position of the foot within the shoe. So there is a kind of literal transparency, but also a phenomenological transparency that reveals both the process of design and the processes of movement.

The vertical ribbons and the hoof-like shape of the shoe elongate the legs and create an almost animal-like extension.
