Gaspard Fleury-Dugy, the textile designer, who discovered a passion for knitwear at the Ecole Duperré in Paris, creates unique, fantastical knitwear pieces.
Presented at Paris Design Week in September, his first series of knitted objects, Soft Objects, resembles fantastical creatures, somewhere between sea anemones and hallucinogenic mushrooms. Gaspard Fleury-Dugy, a 25-year-old designer and visual artist, freely draws inspiration from architects Santiago Calatrava and Oscar Niemeyer for organic shapes, sportswear for flashy colors...all bathed in a digital aesthetic borrowed from programming and pixels.
It was during his BTS at the Ecole Duperré that Gaspard Fleury-Dugy, who has also been a textile designer for a year at fabric publisher Elitis, discovered a passion for knitwear.
