Major Project - Shapeshifting Shoes
Many working women who have diverse events throughout their day carry multiple pairs of shoes with them. The aim is to design a comfortable, multipurpose and adaptable shoe that can be worn for various occasions. The purpose is to maximise convenience and reduce the need to carry extra pairs of shoes on the go.
