A project of the Dutch Design House Demakersvan. Using coated steel wire, the whole idea of a fence undergoes a makeover. From the website:

Our aim is to sparkle of small revolutions. In our projects we often combine the sensitive, emotional and the small with the powerful, large and industrial.
The Laced Fence project translates that line of thinking. Fencing is a sign how we modified and cultivated our environment. Like brambles fences are rising rampantly around us. What would happen if a patch of embroided wire would meet with and continue as an industrial fence. Hostility versus kindness, industrial versus craft. The strong industrial fence is challenge in its function and appearance by a delicate lace decoration, showing how something which was meant for pure functionality can also be decorative.
