aitor throup studio

I'm a visual thinker so my references always have been on that side of the creative spectrum. Sometimes I really wonder if I found another interest rather than the visual appreciation in the dance.


I know more architects and more fashion designers than dancers or choreographers.

Sometime ago searching information for I don't remember what I reached the website of a british fashion designer, Aitor Throup. More than his designs I found really interesting the way he develops his creative process and specifically how he is able to manage his time despite the timing of the industry.

Aitor throup is a multidisciplinar platform that explore how different techniques can be apply to the research and design of new fashion objects. This translates in the embrace of a new way of understand the process and breaks the pressure and the need of the fashion industry for present a show/collection at least twice a year. Instead his work present  a serie of patterns, prototypes and sculptural tests besides the finished objects, which gives relevance to every step in the creative process.  

He shows us  his studio not only as the physical space which houses the multiple platforms, it also is a creative agency which aims to give support to visual communication projects and collaborations with other design’s fields. This is what I found the most interesting, because I see it as an opportunity to work in a space were the discipline is secondary to the object of research, allowing a mixture of all what I love: fashion, design, architecture, dance.

An image where I'd like to go.

It has always been in mind to travel to a distant place. To a vast steppe. No hills around, not in the distance, not even beyond the horizon. Something like a desert, but a freezing cold desert with not so bright white light, with a tint of blue, diffused for the thick layer of dark grey clouds and cover for a harsh brown grass carpet. I’d like to visit a place like that not to see the view, but to feel the wind. It should be strong, cold and dry. In my mind I walk through the grass with a stool in my hand and a mug in the other, I took a place in the middle of the steppe, and stay there, staring while I drink tea. When I think in that place I’ve always thought in Tierra del Fuego, a distant island at the end of the world, where after the european invasion, the colonization, the Selk'nam genocide and the hunt of every animal in the land there is nothing more than grass and wind. There is no more else than the land itself. In a less poetic way (or maybe not) a place like th...

my "professional" information in a plot twist

–First I would like to say that if you read my entry "my red convertible Porsche" you will already know that this thing that I'm doing in this institution  don't represent my interests. Or maybe should say: if you read that entry you will know that  I'm quite doubtful. In that entry I said that I should stick to my original plan, so now I'm trying to bend my destiny and  do what was undo.– I have a Design degree with focusing in Industrial Design and currently I'm a student in the Dance program of the Arts Faculty in Universidad de Chile. At the end of my first degree I started thinking in a way of transform the disciplinar field I was told I should perform my professional knowledge and add to it my own perspective and interests. I decided not to take to an end my final project and pospone my residence, with the aim of going out and pursuit new places and disciplines where I could insert myself. The plan A was: ask for a working holiday visa ...
