RISEN From The Thread surfaced after years of working in theater, fashion, film and art as a costume/production designer. As new technologies began to emerge, the push to create a link between the digital world and the body became a new passion.  This led me on a new path create access to future technologies that felt discrete and personal that live on and around the body in symbiosos.

We provide design, ideation, invention, innovation, consulting and rapid prototyping services for luxury goods, sports, medical, entertainment and couture.
