In\asense is last year’s final Fabricademy project. It explores how garments can become interactive vessels for human experience, moving beyond aesthetics to create a multisensory dialogue. The design process incorporates material experimentation, innovative textiles, and interactive elements that engage multiple senses. From scented bio-plastics to sound-reactive garments, each piece is crafted to embody a sensory world rather than just an aesthetic vision. This methodology allows for deeper storytelling—where fashion is not just seen but felt, heard, and even smelled.

With one week to go we can’t wait to see the final results of this year’s Fabri participants. On the 16th of April you can celebrate their final projects with us during the Fabricademy show at !

Fabricademy is a 6-month educational program that runs in many labs around the world and combines hands-on making with online classes and tutorials, led by worldwide experts. Thinking of joining the tenth edition of Fabricademy? Applications are open! Both links in bio.

••• Local color meet-ups •••
• present past, possible future •

Join us this Thursday 14th September for a introduction to local color and a color & textiles walk around the Amsterdam Nieuwmarkt area!

Together we will discover some of the rich textile past of our neighborhood - uncovering bits of past what’s been there all along all around us, where fibers were once spun, cloths were dyed and “color checked “, noticing a few color producing plants along the way 🌱 that grow around us, often unnoticed.

Tickets on our link in bio 🌱🌿🌸🌺🌾
