First step: making a world for our wearable. Now that was hard. Why? Because thought of many different worlds and we were asked to improve each of them many times. Our goal: to make a wearable have a background story that was not just good, but should be insteresting for others to read about later. Once we thought about all different kinds of worlds we each narrowed it down to an underground world. It is a world wear the sun blew up giving us [humans] only the underground to live in. Humans have moved close to the core in order to survive, but people still need to travel to the surface to collect oxygen. We wanted to create an external lung to store oxygen, but it also had to help warm and collect quickly enough so that they didn't freeze to death in the cold outside.

As we started to iterate with ideas of warmth and collection. Our plan then evolved into a dress with tubes that could help them store the oxygen. This would wrap the body, and we were inspired by images of the lungs and lung cells.

Then we began work on the development of the lung and the tubing.
