The expression ‘the body as a design vertigo’ evokes a profound and fascinating concept that brings together philosophy, architecture, art and design, and which views the world of fashion from a different perspective.
At its heart lies the human being and the idea of the human body no longer as a mere standard measure or passive spectator, but as a dynamic force that destabilises and generates space. Rather than designing rigid spaces in which the body must simply ‘adapt’, design becomes a ‘dizzying experience’: an exploration of the limits of movement, the senses and emotional responses.
