Dizains

Par Ringo Gamaguchi Maciņš ar aizdari

Šim produktam ir ābola forma, jo tas izgatavots no Ringo Tex – sintētiskās ādas, kas iegūta no ābolu atkritumiem. Tā izmēri ir balstīti uz īsta maza ābola lielumu, uzsverot tā izcelsmi. Tā galvenā īpašība ir slaidums, kas parasti nav raksturīgs maciņiem ar aizdari. Tas tika panākts, izmantojot atšķirīgu šūšanas pieeju nekā parastajiem maciņiem, ļaujot struktūrai palikt plānai. Nolūks bija radīt produktu, kas viegli ietilpst somās vai kabatās, ļaujot eleganti nēsāt monētas un citas mazas lietas, nepievienojot lieku apjomu.

Unikālās īpašības: This clasp purse utilizes "Ringo-Tex" a bio-based leather developed by appcycle Inc. in Aomori, Japan's largest apple producing region. Around 20,000 tons of apple residue is produced each year, much of it discarded or incinerated, contributing to CO2 emissions. "Ringo-Tex" upcycles this waste into synthetic leather through a low-carbon stabilization process. Molded into a 3D apple form expressing it's origin uniting symbolism and craftsmanship while inviting participation in a sustainable society.

Ražošanas tehnoloģija: The product is built from four key materials, a clasp frame, "Ringo Tex" bio based leather, an electroformed nameplate, and lining. While the clasp is standard, molding "Ringo Tex" is far more demanding than working with genuine leather and required six months of research. Stitching along the complex contours demonstrates Japanese craftsmanship. The gold seed motif, mass-produced by molding, defines the brand’s elegant identity.
Dizaina izaicinājums: The greatest challenge in developing this product was achieving the bumpy texture and stitching applied to complement it. While embossing genuine leather is relatively easy due to it’s elasticity, plant-based synthetic leather is difficult to shape and sew because it lacks these properties. After six months of collaboration with multiple companies and testing we succeeded in creating the texture using a proprietary welder process. It is the product’s most charming yet challenging feature.
Pētījums: Ringo-Tex is created by processing apple residue into power and using it as a raw material, reducing petroleum-based inputs in manufacturing by 72 - 74%. This approach lowers the dependence on finite fossil resources and decreases environmental impact. It maintains the durability and water resistance comparable to existing synthetic leather, offering a upcycled next-generation bio-based material that balances sustainability with practical performance.
Iedvesma: This product is the first release of "Golden Seed" a brand created to embody appcycle's philosophy of "circulation". With the concept of "sowing regenerative seeds and facing a golden future" it expresses Aomori's identity it's apples in a cute, friendly, and accessible way. With refined construction intricate and meticulous stitching reflect the depth of Japanese craftsmanship.
Projekta ilgums: The Project was started in 2025 Aomori and was unveiled in Tokyo in January 2026 as the debut product of the Golden Seed brand. It was exhibited and sold at a one month pop up store held at BEAMS JAPAN from January 29th to February 25th of 2026. For the next phase the team plans to launch a crowdfunding campaign followed by expansion into online platforms and retail stores both in Japan and internationally.
Darbības plūsma: A clasp purse with a push lock to store and carry small items such as coins, AirTags and SD cards.
Patenti: Currently in the process of submitting a application for a patent.
