Bolt Threads approached us to design fabric swatches for their mycelium-based leather alternative. It needed to showcase the unique properties of the textile while creating visually captivating designs that could be used as samples, both physically and digitally. We experimented with a wide range of designs, from practical to fantastical, exploring shapes and forms that opened up new possibilities of textural display. In the end, we created over fifty designs, out of which Bolt Threads selected four hero swatches that truly captured the essence of their innovative textile, Mylo.
Bolt Threads selected the follow four swatches for their Going to Market campaign.
