Seed of Love is a good name for these [backpacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fjallraven-kanken-koncept) by Ross Lovegrove. These beautiful sculptures, recently shown at the Tokyo Fiber 09 SENSEWARE exhibition in September, are made of triaxial woven fabric to create an [ultra-light organic shape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nanobag-daypack).

Unlike conventional textiles, triaxial woven fabric (T.W.F. fabric and MELSET are registered trademarks) employs three threads intersecting each other at 60 degrees in a reticulated arrangement, that gives opportunities to create structures ideal for dynamic surface changes in three dimensions.
