Bivouac - Degree Collection 2019

This project explores the tent as a symbol of intergenerational connectivity between families. Shared over generations as a source of enjoyment, a bivouac shelter provides protection against the elements. The tent adapts itself in a moment to become a home, a carrier, a social centre. The pieces in this collection transition through spaces, providing wearable tools for the modern city dweller. Dublin city itself is reflected in the colours, textures and shapes of the collection. A city survival kit.
