This experimental dyeing project has been a journey to introspect myself over a year of 2021. Pieces of fabric were dyed weekly with food waste such as inedible part of vegetables from everyday life. For this project, I have challenged to keep "my waste" to use them as dye stuff and record each of the dyed pieces of fabric as an individual color instead of dumping them soon after each meals...

This group of textile design is based on a knitting technique in which long yarn is structured in loops. Deconstruction is the core of this project. All the pieces were unwound after the dyeing process and re-knitted afterward. The result is dyed gradations with gradual shifts that create unexpected patterns. This way patterns are physically blended into the textile and not just on the surface...

Roll curtain textile design proposed for the window in the stairwell of Soja Kibiji Bunkakan in Okayama, Japan. The design is inspired by the local scenery of rice fields and light, the glorious moment during mid-summer. Material and color are carefully selected to respect existing condition, without adding figurative expressions nor patterns, aiming to seamlessly connect the inside/outside...

Series of block printed textiles with natural dyes which is inspired by authentic dyeing method I have experienced in Jaipur, combining Indigo print I have met in the Netherlands. The title of "intence" includes various meaning: the strong visual effect of the dyeing outcome, high concentration of chemical in the printed paste, what is more, the sensational experiences in India...

Tenjinyama Cultural Plaza, a cultural center built in 1962 in the hart of Okayama city, is a masterpiece of modernist architecture by Kunio Mayekawa, a notable Japanese modernist architect. Shioka Okamoto conducted a solo exhibition in the center, and proposed the textile design for a existing space in the venue. Two designs have been proposed and noticing the authenticity of the building...

The series of textile design proposes the alternative way of processing the crepe fabric woven with high-twisted yarn which is called "chirimen" primarily produced for Kimono. Having inspired by the production procedure and the feature of crepe fabric, this way transforms the plain raw fabric into three-dimensional surface by laser-cutting and boiling. Combining newer technology into the traditional material...

The project revitalizes the spatial atmosphere of Lyngby Stadsbibliotek by making connection between inside and outside. According to the Norwegian architect Christian Norberg-Schulz, “the inside-outside relationship constitutes the very essence of architecture.” The library built in 1968 has an immense glass facade, typical in modernist architecture...

The project is about layering colors by textile in a space, proposing how to divide a space by colored fabric in a new way. The selection of colors has been developed from several experiments that is initially inspired by some theorist, Johannes Itten and Josef Albers. I had challenged to examine how theoretical color-mixing can be done in reality by dealing with textile as the actual material...

A series of textile design (curtain) I had designed for Kinnasand, the Scandinavian textile design company, that has just entered in the Japanese market. Inspiration for the design is the distinctive natural light in the north Europe which is developed to the color scheme for the design. Subtle, yet clear colors are selected and these colors are printed in wide stripes creating gradient color...

Contrary to popular belief, not all of around Shoreditch in east London is buzzing with clubs, bars and galleries. There are residential estates with schools just behind the high streets. One of those estates, Dorset Estate is originally designed by Berthold Lubetkin who is one of the important modernist in the UK in 1957...
