Bloom in Dusk is a concept footwear project that reimagines natural growth through futuristic design. This project explores the relationship between natural growth and man-made form through two conceptual footwear styles: DAWN, a derby that merges leathercraft with 3D-printed floral forms, and DUSK, a lace-up with sculptural soles echoing forest terrain at sunset. Together, they blur the line between fashion and sculpture, balancing digital tools with handcraft.
