“BLUE DROP Best Innovation award ’10” and “Innovation Prize Architecture Textile Object 2011” – Special award for the product “Hologram”

Product development „Hologram“

HHannes Neubert has managed to transfer “hologram technology” onto a woven fabric for the very first time with the Holo Collection. The product changes its design and colour, depending where the viewer is standing. Using a specially developed relief-like weaving technique and the fibre-dependent imprecision of the pile height, there arises an atmospheric interplay of overlapping images, which create the charm of this design, thanks to their blurred nature.
