Designer Jiri Evenhuis in collaboration with Freedom of Creation, were amongst the first ones to experiment with three dimensional printing to create fabrics. Three-dimensional printing is an emerging technology, which uses ultraviolet beams to fuse layers of powdered, recyclable thermoplastic into shape, leaves behind virtually no waste. Its localized production and one-size-fits-all approach also racks up markedly fewer travel miles, requires less labour, and compresses fabrication time to a matter of hours, rather than weeks or months.
