FOOTWEAR

Lava Footwear is a conceptual project that explores the fusion of nature-inspired design and cutting-edge technology. Imagined as a shoe for harsh terrains, it draws inspiration from the rugged textures and forms of cold lava rocks. The design process involved extensive use of parametric and procedural tools, particularly Houdini, to craft a shoe that could be almost entirely 3D-printed. This project highlights the potential of digital modeling and generative design to push the boundaries of traditional footwear, blending innovation with organic aesthetics to create a bold and functional concept.​​


Software used:
Maya, Zbrush, Houdini, Arnold,  Substance Painter, Photoshop.
