Metamorpheus

A life lived in defence takes a toll on the shell, morphing & adapting to guard its vulnerabilities.

Design Inspiration

I considered the nature of shells both as a retreat and a defence and wondered what our own shells may look like if you could see them as easily as you could see our clothes. Metamorpheus is an embodiment of this idea representing the stark exterior protecting the soft vulnerability within.
