Leicester ‘STREET STORIES’’ Empty Shop Windows Art Project. A collaboration with Arch Creative The Liberty Shoe design project has been selected to represent De Montfort University Fashion & Textiles Department (MA) in one of 10 ‘augmented reality’ shop windows in Leicester city centre. This is part of the exciting Street Stories project organised by design agency Arch Creative on behalf of BID Leicester. It aims to improve the appearance of empty shop units in Leicester to make the city centre more attractive to visitors. The textile designs have been inspired by Leicester’s past textile and shoe industry and the story of the Liberty Shoe factory.
