Versatile

Versatile is an interactive textile designed for interiors and inspired by beds “à la polonaise”.

In this space you take the time to wake you up, the time to reach the surface… this surface is scattered by light, a light that crosses corals. Versatile is a module which evolves with its surrounding. Imagine you in a cocooning space with this starry sky of these intelligent eyes above: at night, optic fibers plunge you into a luminous wave world. When the sun rises, optic fibers move and let you get the natural light through holes. This light will feed during the all day the white wavy pattern which is in fact phosphorescent: when the sun will decline, this pattern will be your night light. Then, when you would like to be in the dark, with a caress you will fold these benevolent eyelids made out of feathers.

This light emitting woven textile includes optical fibres, photoluminescent yarns, memory wires, light sensors and feathers as touch sensors.
