Can we say shoe projects? I love it when designers work with other artists to create an item or piece that is focused outside of their natural element. It definitely shows the flexibility of these artist and how they work together. And I think the way these pieces are design through a new perspective, which gives a new way of thinking about design for a sword or a shoe. And this shoe in the article is so beautiful, but yet has a sharp look so it lets the model/ owner wear it for work, an event, or as a statement piece. I just wish art like this wouldn't be so expensive. But I would love to experience a process like this in the future where we focus on a elements that we are not familiar with and be able to use what we know to create an amazing work of art.
