I've always been interested in how + why things are made (you can read more about my thoughts on this subject here). Maybe it started with LEGO as a kid, but I love to find the reasons why things are designed in a certain way, and for what purpose. It was while at uni my obsession with colour, pattern and shape started. We would research into up-and-coming trends away from fashion; social, environmental, art, transport, agriculture, architecture, niche groups...you name it. My mind was constantly filled with whizzing thoughts, trying to figure out what on earth I'd just seen or read.
"You can find inspiration in everything...and if you can't, look again".

ASAP54 is an app that fits into these sentiments perfectly – blending the world of pattern, colour and clothing all into one. The ASAP54 app helps you discover new items of clothing + brands, simply by uploading any photography. All you do is upload an image of something inspiring, and the app will search for products which match the colours and patterns within your image.
The ASAP54 team have challenged me and several other bloggers to discover how much inspiration we can find in our everyday lives. We were told to look all all things none-fashion, then use the app to see what items we could find. I'll report back soon to show you the results from using the app, it's been pretty fun so far.
Thanks for reading + Merry Christmas to you all!

Sounds neat! And I love your thought process and interest in how things are made. I don't think I ever had such a strong inkling in the making of things until later in my life. but my brother always had it since he was little. i'm always fascinated by the people who have this interest more than the interest itself! :) happy holidays to you!
ReplyDeleteThis app sounds really interesting! Will check it out. Happy Christmas to you too!
