The sporty riding helmet was developed through a material-driven design process. The project focused on creating a new material that combines the qualities “animal-based” and “technical.” Horn was selected as the natural animal-derived material and reinterpreted through a geometric honeycomb structure to create a more technical appearance. Within the helmet design, the material is applied specifically to the ventilation areas. The honeycomb elements support airflow while giving the helmet a distinctive, functional, and contemporary aesthetic.
