About Color Change Roba

Color Change és una peça de vestir feta amb materials sensibles a la temperatura. El teixit canvia de color quan entra en contacte amb la calor corporal, la llum del sol o l'escalfor d'una altra persona. Un contacte proper com una abraçada esdevé així visible a la superfície de la roba. El patró està tallat per ressaltar les línies estructurals de la peça, i aquestes línies es tanquen amb cinta adhesiva. La cinta no reacciona a la temperatura, de manera que es manté fixa mentre el teixit del voltant canvia de color. El contrast entre els dos materials fa que els canvis ocults d'escalfor siguin fàcils de percebre.
