AI-Powered Architectural Footwear

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Str4ngeThing Envisions a Set of Renaissance Architecture Shoes

— April 12, 2023 — Art & Design
The AI-artist known as Str4ngeThing works on a new imagination of footwear that is inspired by the look of Renaissance Architecture. The designer notes that it is a "testament to the power of design and innovation using AI." Every single shoe looks like it is a blend of wood veneer that has been thinly sliced or cork, adorned with an intricate amount of details.

It compresses an entire era of notable architecture into the small shoe, with some details lost through the processes. Additionally, some of the shoes also include sculptural elements in the design as well, with details that go down to the. the midsole, appearing like the entire footwear ha been carved from sandstone.
