The VOLT collection is inspired by cable management. Pauwels always chooses as a source of inspiration a method that ensures efficiency and order. They give him peace of mind and originate in his basic law studies.

As a defence against covid isolation, Pauwels chose nightclub interiors as his colour inspiration. Neon lights and vibrant colours take centre stage.

To translate these sources of inspiration into a concept for footwear, fabric uppers, leather lining, adhesive PET and (fluor) plexi-glass were used.
