P.Andrade Explores Biomimicry in Its “Nonhuman Life” Collection
Beetle anatomy inspires functional, nature‑driven silhouettes across outerwear and modular garments.
Summary
- P.Andrade’s “Nonhuman Life” collection draws on beetle anatomy to create functional, biomimetic clothing
- Exoskeleton‑like outerwear, modular shell‑inspired pieces and layered, iridescent constructions highlight its technical, future‑focused design language
- A new furniture line with Clube extends these design principles
P.Andrade’s “Nonhuman Life” collection continues the brand’s deep investigation into biomimicry. Drawing inspiration from the anatomical study of insects, specifically the intricate structures of beetles, the collection translates organic forms into highly functional clothing.
The theme delves into the structural intelligence of nature, utilizing a neutral and technical palette to highlight the brand’s commitment to high-performance, future-facing fashion. Key reflects this hybrid sensibility: outerwear with exoskeleton‑like paneling, modular garments that mimic protective shells and layered constructions that evoke the iridescent surfaces of beetle wings. These items showcase the brand’s expanded technical language, moving between a poetic interpretation of biological life and the practical requirements of modern urban wear.
Expanding beyond apparel, P.Andrade has also introduced its first furniture collection in partnership with Clube. The pieces extend the same biomimetic principles into the realm of interior design, featuring organic contours, sculptural silhouettes and materials chosen for both durability and expressive form.
