The message of the project
"The Heritage Project" by C/OVER is a creative initiative that reimagines traditional Bavarian knitted structures through a modern, modular sweater system. This project blends cultural heritage with contemporary design, offering versatile and customizable knitwear pieces that pay homage to Bavarian craftsmanship while introducing innovative modularity.
The idea behind the project
By reinterpreting these traditional designs in a modular format, C/OVER not only preserves the cultural significance of Bavarian knitting but also pushes the boundaries of sustainable and functional fashion. The project promotes a slow fashion ethos, encouraging consumers to invest in quality pieces that can be worn in multiple ways, thus reducing waste and fostering a deeper appreciation for the artistry involved in knitwear.
In essence, "The Heritage Project" by C/OVER is a celebration of Bavarian knitting heritage, brought to life through modern, versatile design that resonates with contemporary values of sustainability and personalization.
