Dutch designer Antoine Peters has developed a technique for making textiles that appear to change or move when viewed from different angles.
With Lenticular Weave, Peters has found a way to make textiles that incorporate two different designs. The one you see depends on your viewing angle.
The technique allows two different designs to coexist on a single textile
Just like in lenticular printing, this technique can be used to create playful juxtapositions and simple animations.
To show some of the possibilities, Peters has created a large textile wall hanging incorporating a range of image transitions, including a winking eye and an arrow that changes direction.
This textile was unveiled during the recent Dutch Design Week in Eindhoven.
The design you'll see depends on the viewing angle "About 13 years ago, I was struck by the magic of lenticular printing," explained Peters, who is based in Amsterdam. "I love the dynamics of movement, contrast, surprise, and delay."
"I imagined these powers in direct connection with the viewer, user, or wearer," he told Dezeen, "and ever since I have dreamed about translating this into a textile that changes when viewed from different angles."
