In a new variation on their previous digital hotspot onesie, the BB.Suit 0.2 is a 3D-knit one-piece that provides wearable clean air. The air-purifying garment cleans the air around the person wearing it. The jumper is the result of a collaboration between ByBorre, Eindhoven University of Technology's Martijn ten Bhomer, Eva de Laat, Daan Spangenberg Graphics, StudioFriso and WANT.
Currently exhibiting at Beijing Design Week as BB Suit: Wearable Air Cleaning, the high-tech onesie filters the air around it to create a "purified air bubble." Like the original, the wearable clean air also acts as a data library, GPS tracker and wireless hotspot.
As the BB.Suit 0.2 was made using sustainable processes, the designers hope the clothing will inspire other fashion professionals to contribute to a cleaner industry, increase emotional bonds between wearers and their clothes and reduce waste.
