Pleats Please by Issey Miyake, autumn 2003
13” diameter
When I first saw this in a boutique window, I thought it looked like a big squishy beach ball. Upon closer inspection, I realized it was a geodesic dome! I certainly can’t speak for Mr. Miyake’s design intentions, but to me it is a witty homage to the great Buckminster Fuller.
The triangles are polyvinyl chloride fused on polyester, made in Japan. A single magnetic snap closes the polyester lined bag.
