When the season changes, we recognize the changes of colors among the vegetation. When the slow color-change happens, we appreciate the subtle transformation of nature. Such subtleness gives us a peaceful sensation rather than generates an irritating feeling from loud noise and hasty motion. What if an object can generate the subtleness of the natural environment?

There are many wearable and mechanical projects that use either thermochromic pigments or shape-memory wires. However, it is hard to find a project that uses both materials at the same time. In this proposed swatch, I am going to use both thermochromic pigments and nitinol wires for changing the fabric’s color and shape. My research interest is creating a thing that can transform its given space as an organically changing environment without haste. This swatch project can benefit the study of the gradual changes in the object’s colors and shapes.
