1st Place Case Competition Sustainable Shoe Design.
Examined by judges from Deloitte and Ernst & Young.
I designed this shoe while specifically responding to production and resource issues within the 2022 Adidas annual budget, and with my three other team members examined in a ten-minute presentation how our 3D-printed variation on the Adidas silhouette would decrease production costs for the company while emphasizing Adidas’ mission statement.
Sustainable Design With Business in Mind.
I financially analyzed the cost of all materials, production, and shipping methods. Afterward, I illustrated based on my financials how using only one 3D-printed recyclable plastic would effectively achieve greater performance for the brand while still remaining true to their core values.
We were the only competitors that synthesized a presentation with emerging technology, and Adidas’ current design standards in mind, which won over the hearts of the Judges.
