Our Inspire Gaastra gallery. More than 250 photo inspirations were uploaded and shared with us.
In the months November and December of 2013 Gaastra you participated in a very special contest; The Inspire Gaastra Facebook campaign. For the creation of our new collection we were looking for that special nautical inspiration. The response was overwhelming. Thousands of votes were placed and more than 250 inspiration photos were uploaded. The contest consisted out of 2 different prices. The Public Choice Award has already been revealed and today we announce the happy winners of the special Designers’ Choice Awards.
The amount of inspiration uploads made it very difficult for our team of head of designers to pick that one special inspiration photo. However, 2 valuable inspiration photo’s have been selected, one to be used in the designs of our Sportswear collection and another to be used for our Breton collection
Therefore….
Konstanty Romaniuk & Pieter Grijpink — CONGRATULATIONS!!
They are the official winners of the Inspire Gaastra Designers’ Choice Award. There inspiration photos will be used in the creation of our new collection!
Karen Heide & Roosmarijn Koster, Heads of Design Gaastra Breton – “For us this picture represents the old and rough look of the maritime life, combined with the characteristic diversity of the materials shown in the picture. When looking at this photo we instantly were inspired by the oil looking jacket and the combination of the deep colours. We are curious where this inspiration photo will take us in our design process and we are certain of a stunning result.”
Sandra da Silva, Head of Design Gaastra Sportswear — “Out of all the 250 inspirations this photo stood out immediately. This picture contains many inspiration elements to be used in our new Gaastra sportswear collection. The exciting mixture of functionality and the shiny material in contrast with the old and worn-off look makes me want to create exiting and unexpected combinations. This photo is truly a big asset for the creation of our new sportswear collection.”
