Jaime Hayon für Camper

Bereits 2007 arbeitete Designer Jaime Hayden für Camper und möbelte den Barcelona Store auf. Jetzt wird aus einer produktlastigeren Zusammenarbeit ein neues Schuhmodell geboren, das Hayon wie folgt beschreibt: “a sporty shoe with a touch of elegance, or vice versa, that hides some surprises that make it all the more special, like the feel of the laces or the linen interior”.
Die Fusion von Style, weicher, organischer Formen und einem Mix von Materialien und die hohe Qualität sind Charakteristika des Schuhes, der in schwarz und weiss, aber auch in leuchtendem pink, grün und blau daherläuft.
“I wanted to find a form that stylized the foot, like the tap dancing shoes. I have always liked the character of dance shoes because they remind me of a music-hall. The women’s shoe is a constant inspiration, contrary to those for men that aren’t as exciting. I wanted to make a simple shoe but one that had character, in solid colors but that were special enough to give identity to a way of dressing. If for me, and also for many others, glasses are important in creating the personality of a person, I think that shoes should be so too”. Jaime Hayon

Na, dass ein Schuh ein Outfit komplettiert und manchmal mehr über Stil, Charakter und Klasse des Trägers verrät als das Obendrüber ist nicht gerade eine Neuigkeit, Herr Hayon. Die Anlehung an den Step-Schuh auch nicht. Macht aber nix, das Rad muss nicht immer neu erfunden werden um Schönes zu kreieren. Der Schuh ist toll. Mich würde nur interessieren, wie er am Fuß aussieht. Gerade die farbigen Modelle könnten wie Plasik-Schuhwerk wirken. Werde wohl in den nächsten Tagen im Camper Store nach dem Modell Ausschau halten und es am Fuß testen.

Wer mehr über den Designer Jaime Hayon wissen möchte gehe gleich hier auf seine Seite. Es lohnt sich – Der Herr macht wirklich so manch interessantes Projekt. Hier noch ein kleiner visueller Streifzug durch den Camper Store in Barcelona:

From toys, to furniture and interior design as well as artistic installations, his boldness has been transcending the borders of the often separated worlds of art and design, merging his own style with ease between the two. Hayon bathroom collection, AQHayon, for Artquitect Launched in 2005, caused a tremor in the bathroom industry and design community and placed him on the forefront of the design tendencies.
