Celestial Mapping

A continuation of conceptual research must develop before the design process can begin.

Constellations come from our human tendency to draw imaginary lines between objects to create familiar shapes that we can recognize... essentially, it is our attempt to make sense of the immeasurable vastness that is our universe.


Mapping and plotting are concepts that can transfer to pattern making and garment construction. Essentially, a pattern is a mapped area that corresponds to coordinates of the body to create a familiar shape such as a sleeve or collar.
