The M1N0 project is an electronically enhanced wearable that addresses the issues of textile waste and garment making accessibility by the masses. It's simplicity is both a reflection of my skill (or lack there of) but also a nod of appreciation to a tradition of garment making that is beautiful because of its humility and usefulness.
**Beauty in Utility. A garment by Anyone for Everyone.**
Key Intent
- abstraction/structure > build a garment
