COMBS

They are subtle,
They are functional, 
They go by unnoticed.
During this project my research into the design history of the comb led me to reinterpreting this object as an lost evolutionary strain of its supposed nemesis: the flea. I described my own prototypes as an extinct flea species, thereby exploring both the organic functionality and usage of the comb.
All sketches and prototypes were ultimately collected in a booklet that emulated scientific publications.
