FAST FACTS: DYSON + ISSEY MIYAKE
• In 1985, James Dyson frst encountered ISSEY MIYAKE’s work at an exhibition at the Boiler House
museum (forerunner to the Design Museum) in London. He’s been a fan ever since; particularly admiring
Miyake’s bold approach to design:

“Issey Miyake has for many years shown the world what design is all about. Reinventing the shape of cloth-
ing. Coming up with new production methods. Redefning materials. A true original”.
• The collaboration between Dai Fujiwara and James Dyson, for Paris Fashion Week, began in August
2006 following a visit by Dai to Dyson’s Research Design and Development centre in Wiltshire. Dai set James
the challenge of bringing wind power to his catwalk show.
• The material used by Dyson for the giant yellow ‘hoses’ in the set is more commonly used for police
dog training or extracting exhaust fumes from aircraft.
• Each of the fve tubes is 14m long and 0.65m in diameter. They were tested in a huge warehouse at
Dyson’s RDD Centre in the UK and fown out for further testing in Paris.
• Dai Fujiwara has incorporated blueprints from Dyson designs as well as actual Dyson machine parts
into his collection
• ISSEY MIYAKE pioneered the award-winning A-POC (a piece of cloth) process: garments are made
using industrial knitting or weaving machines programmed by a computer. This process creates continuous
tubes of fabric within which lie both shape and pattern
• Dyson will dedicate the next version of the Dyson DC16 handheld cleaner to ISSEY MIYAKE, to cel-
ebrate the WIND collaboration – this will be available in November 2007
• By designing this set James Dyson has come full circle; one of his frst projects was designing Lon-
don’s Roundhouse theatre. A former locomotive turning house, he transformed it into an auditorium.
