Ny Endrika

Momba ny Ayla Kitapo Entina (Tote Bag)

Ny Ayla dia kitapo hoditra modular natao mba haharitra amin'ny tsingerin'ny fiainan'ny vokatra maromaro. Naorina avy amin'ny takelaka hoditra azo soloina io kitapo io, ampitambatry ny fivohana varahina azo esorina, ka tsy mila fanjairana intsony. Ny takelaka tsirairay dia apetraka eo anelanelan'ny fivohana ivelany sy takelaka anaty, avy eo dia hamafisina amin'ny fantsika sy vis. Ny takelaka simba dia azo soloina tsy ilàna ny fanariana ny kitapo iray manontolo. Ny lamina voafaritra mialoha dia mamela ny takelaka voatahiry haova ho pôketra kely kokoa. Ny fanaparitahana feno dia manohana ny fanamboarana sy ny fampiasana indray rehefa tapitra ny fotoam-piasany.

Toetra Manokana
Modular and transformable leather panels along with detachable hinges allow Ayla to last multiple product life cycles. The detachable hinge facilitates ease of repair when the product gets damaged. Simply undo the hinge and replace the damaged leather panel, eliminating the need to throw away the entire product. The ability to fully disassemble the product allows for an environmentally friendly end-of-life with the ability to either repair or transform old leather panels into new products.

Teknolojia Famokarana
Experimenting with multiple 3D printed components, I focused on exploring ways to attach leather panels without the use of stitching. I landed on a pin system. Leather panels are sandwiched between an outer hinge and an inner plate. The panels are secured atop the pins and then anchored with a series of screws. With these hinges, everything from the handle, to the main body, to the interior can be replaced. Final hinges were made of polished brass to ensure longevity with extended ware.
Fanamby Endrika
The hardest part of this project was finding the perfect intersection of functionality/sustainability and desired look. I determined through my research that my target audience wanted a product that had sustainable attributes but looked no different from a traditional bag. I could achieve the desired function but not in an aesthetic that was appealing to my audience. Through many rounds of prototypes and interviews, I came to a final mechanism that satisfied both ends.
Fikarohana
I started with database research to determine opportunities to reduce waste. I interviewed 4 professionals in the fashion accessories industry. I used these two methods to inform my hinge mechanism. For product look and feel, I used a survey to determine bag silhouette, mood boards to determine detail and target audience, triading to determine desired look, narrative scenarios to determine how the bag would be used, and user interviews to ultimately hone in on a final design direction.
Aingam-panahy
Leather is one of the most polluting sectors within fashion. Most leather products contribute to the idea of take-make-waste. Reducing environmental impact is not as simple as switching to a leather alternative. Almost all alternatives are polymer based and cannot match traditional leather's longevity. If farmed regeneratively, used as meat industry byproduct, and, if able to be used multiple times, leather can be sustainable. Ayla explores how we can use leather to its maximum potential.
Faharetan'ny Tetikasa
Started in August of 2023 at Rochester Institute of Technology in Rochester, New York, USA. and finished in May of 2024 in Rochester, New York, USA.
Fizotr'asa
The detachable nature of the metal hinge allows for components within the product to be interchanged when damage occurs. If one side of the product gets damaged, simply replace that panel, not the entire item; this reduces wastage. Additionally, the main leather panels were designed to be turned into a different, smaller product if only one panel can be salvaged. Predetermined patterns ensure that one panel can be turned into a smaller clutch, further reducing the waste of the item.
