Ce d\u00e9fi offre une plateforme aux directeurs de la cr\u00e9ation pour pr\u00e9senter leurs approches durables du design, de la conception au produit final. Cette ann\u00e9e, PUMA, repr\u00e9sent\u00e9 par son directeur de la cr\u00e9ation mondiale, Heiko Desens, et la styliste new-yorkaise Nicole McLaughlin, a relev\u00e9 le d\u00e9fi. Nous nous sommes entretenus avec Heiko pour parler du GFA Designer Challenge et faire la lumi\u00e8re sur le projet de recherche \"Sweep the Factory Floor\" (balayer le sol de l'usine).<\/span>\n<\/div>\n   <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- row two columns -->\n<div class=\"row rowTwoColumnsWide spacing\">\n    <div class=\"col articleText\">\n        <div ><br\/><strong>Heiko, peux-tu nous expliquer en quoi consistait le Designer Challenge ?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Heiko :<\/strong> Le Designer Challenge, organis\u00e9 par la Global Fashion Alliance, suit le travail des directeurs de la cr\u00e9ation sur la voie d'une conception plus durable. Lorsque nous avons \u00e9t\u00e9 contact\u00e9s par la GFA, nous avons vu l'occasion parfaite de partager nos recherches en cours sur la mani\u00e8re d'utiliser nos d\u00e9chets de production. Nous avons \u00e9t\u00e9 ravis de partager \u2018Sweep the Factory Floor\u2019 avec l'ensemble de la communaut\u00e9 de la mode dans le cadre du GFA Designer Challenge lors du Global Fashion Summit \u00e0 Copenhague.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Comment le projet a-t-il d\u00e9marr\u00e9 ? Quelle est l'histoire du projet ?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Heiko :<\/strong> En tant que cr\u00e9ateurs, nous avons \u00e9t\u00e9 t\u00e9moins de la quantit\u00e9 de d\u00e9chets g\u00e9n\u00e9r\u00e9s tout au long du processus de production dans la cha\u00eene d'approvisionnement de l'industrie de la mode. Nous sommes d\u00e9termin\u00e9s \u00e0 trouver des solutions cr\u00e9atives pour r\u00e9soudre ce probl\u00e8me. L'\u00e9quipe de conception et d'innovation de PUMA a explor\u00e9 diff\u00e9rentes id\u00e9es d'upcycling qui utilisent les chutes de mat\u00e9riaux de la cha\u00eene d'approvisionnement pour transformer les d\u00e9chets de production en chaussures uniques et personnalis\u00e9es.<br\/>\n<\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"col articleText\">\n        <div ><br\/>Au cours de l'ann\u00e9e \u00e9coul\u00e9e, j'ai constat\u00e9 une certaine lassitude \u00e0 l'\u00e9gard de la recherche de solutions innovantes en mati\u00e8re de conception durable. J'ai constat\u00e9 que la motivation \u00e0 travailler sur des id\u00e9es plus durables, qui \u00e9tait autrefois le moteur de l'industrie, a quelque peu diminu\u00e9. Mais en regardant vers l'avenir, je pense que nous devons augmenter et continuer \u00e0 chercher des approches innovantes pour rendre l'industrie de la mode plus durable.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Pourquoi le nom \u201cSweep the Factory Floor\u201d ?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Heiko :<\/strong> Le nom \u201cSweep the Factory Floor\u201d (balayer le sol de l'usine) capture l'essence de notre projet, qui vise \u00e0 nettoyer les sols des usines des d\u00e9chets de tissu. Il symbolise notre engagement \u00e0 cr\u00e9er un avenir plus durable et souligne comment les moindres chutes de tissu contribuent \u00e0 une vision plus large et holistique de la durabilit\u00e9. Il signifie que les id\u00e9es durables ne doivent pas toujours avoir la taille d'une superproduction, mais que chaque petit pas compte.
