As winners of one of five £1,000 Shell LiveWIRE Grand Ideas Awards in June 2009, Viviane Jaeger and Emma-Jayne Parkes (SquidLondon) are a duo product design team from the London College of Fashion, passionately inspired by innovation, smart materials and interaction between the fields of science and design.
Their first interactive product is a walking piece of art - an umbrella that interacts with rain and changes into a splendour of different colours as the rain hits the panels, and they will be using the £1,000 prize money to pay for display stands and further prototype developments.
