Digital Innovation Season 2025

Earthsuits

Earthsuits is a Central Saint Martins initiative exploring the history and future of wearables, from augmentations, devices, materials to sensors and beyond.

Welcome to Earthsuits

As life on Earth becomes more unpredictable with climate change and rapid technological innovation, Earthsuits investigates how we can use wearable technologies to adapt to and reconstruct our environments – drawing from the monumental technological leaps made in the Space Race to the everyday functions of workwear, uniforms and performance gear.

Earthsuits is the theme for the fourth iteration of Central Saint Martin’s Digital Innovation Season (DIS), where we explore and celebrate creativity in the digital space, through public talks and student workshops that enhance critical and creative future skills.

Digital Innovation Season is open to all Central Saint Martins students and some sessions are open to the public. Spaces are limited throughout the programme, so please only book if you can attend. If you book for an event you can no longer attend, please remember to cancel the booking.
