The LED design blends flawlessly with AKRIS’ space theme. The e-broidery (a play on words “electric embroidery”) is a collaboration between AKRIS and Forster Rohner.

“Forster Rohner has been integrating electronic functionalities into textiles while developing delicate and intricately embroidered LEDs to gorgeous, patterned sensors. Forster Rohner’s success (and innovation) is in using a vocabulary that designers are familiar with (embroidery). No wires, no black boxes. “ (Fashioning Technology)
