what if clothes could remember?
Common Closet
In a world where there is increasingly more than merely the physical, and more objects gain a virtual identity, connecting clothes is a natural next step. With the use of NFC technology in fashion, we can give clothes a memory. I designed a peer-to-peer sharing system for these connected clothes, to facilitate their re-use. This opportunity for decentralised lending and borrowing was born out of user- context- and stakeholder-research. The number one reason for unworn clothing to hang in our closets is fear of future regret, and emotional attachments. This platform, Common Closet, is based on blockchain technology and facilitates lending without losing.
