Fernando Romero in cooperation with United Nude, part of the Re-Inventing Shoes collection, 2015.
Architect and world economic forum ‘global leader of tomorrow’ fernando romero has conceived ‘ammonite’ for united nude, a shoe that uses the most cutting-edge 3D printing technology, yet results in an organically shaped object that could have been found in nature, like a fossil buried on the bottom of the ocean.
Each sculptural heel was 3D printed using SelectiveLaser Sintering in a hard nylon and all-new soft rubber material, making a ‘fully functioning’ shoe.
