About Infinite Konvertebla Sako

La Infinito estas konvertebla kaj faldebla leda sako kun origamia dizajno inspirita de la geometrio de la kupolo de la muzikejo de Aali-Qapu, imperia palaco en Irano. Uzantoj povas facile ŝanĝi ĝian formon, almenaŭ 40 malsamajn formojn, kiam ajn ili decidas, konservante ĝian funkcion kiel sako. Ĉi tiu sako estas daŭripova solvo en konsumo ĉar ĝi havas daŭran materialon kaj ĝi ankaŭ respondas al la diverseco de uzantoj per sia ŝanĝebla formo. La dimensio de la sako kiam ĝi ne estas faldita estas 200×400 milimetroj kaj ĝi konsistas el 96 pecoj de vera bovledo kaj 18 aroj de metalaj presbutonoj sen kudrado.

Unique Properties: In a world where diversity and rapid changes have increased consumerism, this bag is a sustainable solution in consumption because it has durable material, leather, and It also responds to the users’ demand for their changing mood by its changeable shape.
it is like a puzzle with many answers, and it turns into at least 40 different shapes, symmetrical and asymmetrical, that the users can change to their desired shape through the manual and can even create new faces for the bag themselves.
Dimensions & Packaging: The dimension of Infinite when it is not folded is 200*400 millimeter. And it has different dimensions in another faces.
Tags: Convertible, infinite, origami, foldable, geometry, Iranian architecture, leather bag, architecture in fashion
Production Technology: the bag consists of 96 cow genuine leather pieces and 18 no-sew snap metal button set that are first designed in 2D and 3D in AutoCAD, then cut by laser cut, and the parts are attached to a soft and foldable suede base, and then sewn entirely by hand.
Design Challenge: The main challenge was how to convert the bag to keep both its beautiful form and its function as a bag. The next challenge was how to fold the leather and which material is perfect for its base that does not lose its durability and quality during folding.
And what pattern should be used for origami then the number of buttons and their place should be determined so that not only it can be opened and closed easily but also it can create more shapes of this bag.
Research: In the process of design and creation, research was done in the field of sustainable consumption, origami patterns, leather folding, consumer behavior, how to use elements and geometric proportions of Iranian architecture in creating practical products, and to stabilize the folded shapes, is it better to use a button or a magnet? which finally resulted in the creation of Infinite.
Inspiration: The idea of the Infinite is inspired by the geometry pattern of the dome of the music hall of Aali Qapu, an imperial palace in Iran, 1957 C.E. Geometry is the language of nature and Iranian architecture in the Safavid period was inspired by mathematics and geometric proportions to create spaces. In the domes of Iranian architecture, layers are folded on top of each other to transform from 2D designs to 3D spaces, and Infinite also used origami to fold the pieces of the bag to different faces.
Project Duration: The design of this bag started in February 2023 in Tehran, Iran and created in July 2023.
Operation Flow: All people understand proportions and beauty, even if they do not have knowledge about it. This bag uses the geometric proportions in Iranian architecture to connect the past, present and future in geometric layers. The user himself/herself shapes the bag and will have a great emotional connection and sense of belonging with the product, which makes both parts of each other. The user's mood changes, he/she changes the shape of the bag and experiences a new mood.
