case study: Shima Seiki’s WHOLEGARMENT

lunedì, giugno 1st, 2009

The Wholegarment case could be relevant for us because it is a good innovative example of fast fashion and new technologyfor knotwear. If in FasPonSite store it is planned to produce a product in one day this technology is more than relevant.
Typically, a knitted garment consists of separate parts–the front and back body panels and the sleeves–which are sewn together afterward. In sharp contrast, Shima Seiki’s revolutionary WHOLEGARMENT knitwear is produced in one entire piece, three-dimensionally, directly on the knitting machine. Consequently it requires no post-production labor whatsoever.
With its truly revolutionary production method, WHOLEGARMENT® is cause for a major paradigm shift in the modern knitting industry. By producing an entire garment in one complete piece, we no longer have to rely on labor-intensive cutting and sewing processes which cause bottlenecks in the supply-chain flow. With WHOLEGARMENT®, great savings in time and cost can be had. Cut-loss–the amount of scrap material that is thrown away after cutting out each pattern–is eliminated entirely as well. And since WHOLEGARMENT® can be produced one garment at a time, the leadtime usually needed to knit each part for the required number of garments is no longer an issue. With WHOLEGARMENT® technology, the required number of required garments can be knit at the required time, permitting true “on-demand” quick-response production. WHOLEGARMENT® production also does away with inconsistencies resulting from manual stitching. Since each garment is produced in its entirety based on digitally programmed data, item-to-item and batch-to-batch quality–even for repeat orders–remain high and consistent throughout.

Case-study: Armani multi-concept boutique

lunedì, giugno 1st, 2009

Armani case is a good example for integrated selling fashion+services model. If in FasPon Site case consumers will have a time for waiting their order in the same place, it will be relevant to organize this place in a more complex way and to add there a recreation area: for ex. a small café or TV or show rooms. Armani case demonstrates that fashion industry can successfully include also high-level service products to make people be loyal.
It is also a good example of a “clever” organizing shopping place. If people spend more time there it became for them not only a simple boutique but a place where they can have a rest and enjoy the time together with friends or even alone.
“This is the Giorgio Armani multi-concept store where you can admire the Emporio Armani showrooms, Armani casa, and Armani fiori. You can also have an aperitif at the Emporio Armani Cafè or spend an evening at the restaurant Nobu, with a dinner by the best Japanese chef to emerge in the last 10 years: Nobuyuki Matsuhisa who opened this chain of restaurants together with Robert de Niro”
“On the ground floor of the Armani mini-mall, the small café is the ideal spot for an after-shopping drink. In the same premises, the Japanese Nobu is a must for after work drinks and sushi”.

hi guys.. by Viola

lunedì, maggio 25th, 2009

hello guys,
I wanted to present myself as a tutor and start to review with you the case studies.
I would like that each group load on the website the updated list of case studies.

For new links on the site, and the Archive for the ‘Case history’ Category, I would suggest to focus on cases that describe new ways of production.
The design of the shop, will be determined by the production chain and the interaction between consumers and system. So, we must first imagine the chain of production and the landscape that the new sales area will offer. Viola

Y’s in Roppongi Hills!

domenica, maggio 24th, 2009

ronaradys

Ron Arad designed the Y’s Flagship store of Yohji Yamamoto in Roppongi Hills. He wanted to bring warmth and animation to an expansive, high-ceilinged, 570-square-metre area. The solution was to add a fourth column to the three structural concrete pillars that divide the space and to embed a turntable in the base of each to turn a cultural display unit. The movement is imperceptibly slow by day, but speeds up when the store closes to provide an entertaining spectacle for late-night window- shoppers.
The store is strong and seductive and creates a real impact on visitors.
