In the middle of the Covid-19 outbreak it became apparent that isolation would last longer than we had first expected, and at some point we would need to leave the safety of our homes and interact in public space. Beginning by making washable masks for everyday use by the general public, the question of how essential services currently protecting their staff arose - are they using methods that are practical and sustainable in the long term? Human behaviour is not easily changed - so as shops, horeca and public transport begin to operate, it may take some time for the general public to adjust to the “new normal” 1.5m socially-distanced society.
Studio Jeffrey Heiligers’ created a customisable uniform that creates a sense of normally or both the user and the public. As an prototype, denim (an instantly recognisable fabric) was chosen for its casual appearance and durability however the choice of material is of course completely adaptable to the requirements of any company who choose to implement a uniform. The main protective components of the uniform are the washable face mask and baseball cap with a detachable plastic shield, which can be easily wiped clean. Other uniform elements are available to be purchased by the client depending on their needs.

This home object generates energy through its movement and is inspired by the Cuckoo clock. Its well-known mechanism is self-sufficient in creating its own energy. By pulling the weights connected to the system and giving the pendulum a small push, kinetic energy is translated into an electrical current.

Inspired by the Fashion Manifesto of Lidewij Edelkoort; “How can a garment be cheaper then a sandwich?” the two designers started this initiative. The goal is to create awareness about the buying behaviour in our society and the impact it has on the environment. “We noticed that a lot of people do not make conscious purchases when they shop.” according to the founders Eva and Jeffrey. “With this platform we want to make them more aware of their buying behaviour and change this.”
