Unido
Inspired by the discomfort and frustration people with rheumatoid arthritis experience when dressing or undressing, ‘Unido’ provides a ‘fixing’ solution for fastening clothing. The concept utilises nanotechnology to create micro-mechanical surfaces that grip like the fingers of a gecko, or the one-way texture of sharkskin, to produce synthetic closures and grip points.
‘Unido’ allows clothes and accessories to be designed with large flexible openings for easy access without sacrificing elegance. It allows clothes to be gathered, shaped, adjusted or fitted as the occasion requires, without the ripping sounds of Velcro!
