Architectural Fashion Illustration http://www.projectfabrica.com Project Fabrica is a self-initiated series of theoretical fashion illustrations inspired by modern architecture. This project explores the relationship between architecture and the human body translating material elements of specific buildings into body-related shapes, textures and illusions.
