Nathalie Nguyen, an artist known online as the “3D sorceress” creates the most unique shoe designs in 3d, as if these shoes come out straight from a nerd’s fever dream. Unfortunately, these one-of-a-kind shoe designs are only in 3D rendering, but that doesn’t stop us or the Internet from going crazy over these bad-ass shoes. Nguyen shares to Paper Magazine that the inspiration from her shoe designs come from picking and pulling details from shoes they like and making new designs from them:
Tricked out with everything from jets to coils, rollerblades, and knobs to molted metals all strapped with buckle closures or suspended on gravity-defying soles, these designs are transcendent, science-fiction imaginings of what footwear can be. "We figured we could start conceptualizing these ideas in a 3D space because our passion wasn't in manufacturing and producing consumer goods, it was showing our work as artists," Nguyen says. As for producing their product in real life, it's still a challenge to create samples with all custom parts that don't completely break the bank for the emerging brand.
