灵感与技术的碰撞
Inspiration & Technology
在明媚的十月，我们迎来了第四季圣东尼先锋计划和四位才华横溢的设计师，四位设计师分别来自德国、芬兰、俄罗斯和中国。他们凭借优秀的设计理念和实践经验，从18名海内外申请者中突出重围，获取本季圣东尼先锋计划的名额。
经过一个月的学习（包含东华教授对针织概念的传授，各大纱线厂商的纱线培训，以及圣东尼各大机型介绍）。通过与圣东尼技术团队的不断交流，四位设计师现已明确了自己的设计方向。

Vital forms capsule collection concept is based on structured fabrics. The beauty of the garments is achieved through fabric function. Prints and graphics take inspiration from locomotion and symmetrical patterns in nature.
该系列的概念是基于结构化的面料。通过织物的功能性实现服装的时尚性。从自然界中的运动和对称模式获取灵感。

Polina said:"Aesthetically I’m attracted to things that you can see on the streets, that are beautiful in themselves, but often remain unnoticed. Sometimes I keep things raw, sometimes I reach for perfect execution, most often – combine both. I always listen to the material, not trying to force it to become something, but emphasising its' best qualities in the final design."
Polina说：“从美学的观点上，我喜欢在街上那些你可以看到的东西，他们本身是美丽的，但往往没有被发现。有时我保持事物的本身，有时我希望完美执行，但更多的时候，选择结合的方式。我总是根据材料的本身性质，而非试图改变他，但希望最终设计作品能展现最好的品质。”

Inspired by layering, relief and modularity to develop new structures for an athleisure capsule collection.
创造运动休闲服装的新结构，灵感来源于分层、减震和模块。
One of the SPP designer said,"I got interested in Santoni pioneer program, since I think circular knit can truly innovate shoe making industry. The possibility to combine different structures to get various qualities in one material, can push the boundaries in an artistic way, as well as applied to the industry. Whatever the result will be, the ultimate goal is to innovate current shoe making processes and break the existing thinking patterns."
其中一位设计师说道：“我对圣东尼先锋计划很感兴趣，因为我认为圆机技术才能真正创新和服务鞋类制造业。通过将不同组织结构，不同品质的材料结合在一起，这可以将圆机技术的的应用升华至艺术层面，同时应用于工业。无论结果是什么，最终目标是打破现有的思维模式，创新当前的制鞋工艺。”
四位设计师接下来就将会在圣东尼圆机工程师的协助下完成美丽的织物以及最后的成品，小编也将会不定期地推送四位设计师的工作进程。最后的成品，会不会令人惊艳？会不会创造织物全新的组织结构？让我们一起拭目以待吧！
