While doing some last minute research into the sustainble aspects i came across this paper. I have not read the whole thing, but it seems interesting, perhaps also to deep dive into in another project

Story board planning. This was also the time where I started creating my first Flowscape environments. I decided to have each style have its own environment and then also one environment where all three designs can be photographed at once
You really evolved in your work the last weeks, nice to see. You seems to get grip on the design process now. We are looking forward to see how this develops even more. You need to keep 'The Who' in mind to get out of the 'tree costume'. Make a lot of variations, look for a contrast in your designs to make it more original and try to experiment there. Try to incorporate a the urban and the nature, bring it together in the designs. We miss the link to a functional element, look for inspirational references (other fashion designers?) here, this can help you. The growing element in the material could definitely be something to work out more in CLO. We enjoyed your professional and personal presentation!

Why, How, WHO & What
WHY: Saving humans from themselves by reconnecting their relationship to the natural physical world
HOW: Exploring humans biophilic tendencies through its physical manifestations in both the digital and physical world of tactility
WHO: Gen-Z and Millenial Men with high-pressure jobs/studies
WHAT: A menswear collection which uses natural texture to stimulate biophilic touch triggers through the textures which are digitally enhanced by visual stimuli in order to sooth stressed minds. The silhouette will be a relaxed/ fun take on classic business wear
Details: the buttons will be made out of wood or nut as these can serve as biophilic touch triggers
Colour and print moodboard,
Both of these elements need to aid the texture.
Experimenting in photoshop to get inspiration for textural prints
Try to go a bit easier on yourself! The idea is definitely there and it is good that you really involve the target group in your concept. Perhaps try to make it more fun, juxtapose the tailoring to something like outdoor wear could be an idea to get an even clearer connection to nature take the textures/type of garments people wear when they are outside. Maybe try to collage with the streetwear and the tailoring, I think that could be an fun way to experiment with your concept. For the textures don’t only take it literally from nature, make it more abstract. Think of the feeling people experience when in nature, do they like the feeling of grass underneath their feet, what connects people to nature. Also choose for yourself whether you want the garments to have a mental healing function or whether it should be a statement!
