The project
Nuria Moyá wanted to develop bags and purses that could be made from carpet and assembled from a single piece. Archicercle provided design advice to address that construction requirement: shaping each accessory without stitching.
The solution uses a slot-and-tab joining system. These elements allow the piece to connect to itself, forming the bag or purse without sewing. Assembly is therefore tied to the geometry of the accessory itself.
The flat shapes reveal the outline before assembly. Once formed, the accessories have rectangular silhouettes, with cut-out handles integrated into the same piece. The relationship between the flat shape and the assembled object is central to the proposal.
The range included different colours and sizes. In April 2017, Nuria was expanding these options for the summer while retaining the single-piece construction and stitch-free assembly. Archicercle’s documented contribution was design consultancy.
The flat pieces help explain the relationship between the cut outline and the finished shape of the accessory.
