About Eastern Blocks Primary Function: Dahab Shubka ah
Book Text: Eastern Blocks waa ururin dahab oo shub ah oo dhiirigelin ka heshay dhismayaasha guryaha lamaminnada ah ee Bariga Yurub. Ururintu waxay ka kooban tahay silsilado iyo hilqado raacaya qaababka guryaha dabaqadaha ah ee horay loo diyaariyay. Shubka ayaa la isticmaalay sababtoo ah agabku waa fudud yahay, xasaasiyad ma keeno, mana jabo si fudud. Qayb kasta waxay ka bilaabmaysaa sawir seddex-cabbir ah, oo ka dib waxaa raaca tijaabooyin iyo qaalibyo silikoon ah oo loogu talagalay shubidda. Qaybaha shubka ah ee la dhammeeyay ayaa markaas lagu isku xiraa lacag iyo maqaar. Ururintu waxay ku martiqaadaysaa aragti cusub oo lagu eego dhaxalka dhismaha ee Bariga Yurub.

- Production Technology
- I chose concrete material - light, non-allergenic, and less fragile to create an ode of a brutalist dystopia. First of all, I designed 3d drawings, made prototypes, and then, started to create molds for concrete details with silicon. When the concrete pieces were finished, I started metalworking with silver and leather materials.
- Design Challenge
- To find a form, which would be understandable, that it's blockhouse jewelry, but minimalist, aesthetic and impressive.
- Research
- I made monitoring of the architecture and society attitude of Eastern European houses. My objective was to find a way, how to talk about post-Soviet society and Eastern European architecture heritage in fashion accessories. The main point is to start a discussion with locals' minds about this unique architecture and spread this wearable message. In this collection, I question people’s attitudes towards Soviet heritage and invite you to take a fresh look at Soviet architecture and society's illusions.
- Inspiration
- The collection was inspired by Eastern European panel blockhouses as an iconic modern community symbol. Shapes of panel buildings and us - people, who live in individuality fiction, because the truth is that only a few centimeters between the walls separate us and our individuality is just fiction in this world.
- Project Duration
- This project started as an idea 2018 but I finished this collection 2020.
- Operation Flow
- Wearable jewelry made of concrete. Light, strong, and non - allergic material make jewelry more comfortable and wearable. This technology and design give a chance to wear architecture in real form and material as a piece of jewelry.
