Designer and engineer Oluwasey Sosanya has created a loom that weaves three-dimensional objects. The impressive apparatus forms each intricate project using a single thread.
Sosanya will present the shoe soles pictured below at the annual show of the Royal College of Art, of which he is a student in a masters program. He elaborates on his ambitious plans for future projects:
"I am developing more technical materials for helmets and stab proof vests–I am currently working on a material that I hope will address several of the issues caused by body shape that surround stab resistant vests worn by female British law enforcement officers."
