Quanzhou Normal University

As a graduate student majoring in decorative art creation, I focus on footwear design and adhere to the concept of True Leather, True Self, exploring innovative and sustainable application of leather in modern shoes. My design centers on eco-friendly recycled footwear and outdoor shoes. Inspired by traditional cultural symbols, I combine classic leather craftsmanship with digital design. With practical experience in shoe factory and design competitions, I explore the potential of genuine leather. I reuse waste leather through splicing and zero-waste cutting, and maximize the natural advantages of leather for functional footwear. Genuine leather delivers fine texture and comfort, and carries design emotion and personal style. Its toughness and ductility inspire me to create sincere and vigorous original designs. 我是一名专注于鞋履设计的装饰艺术创作专业研究生,秉持 “真皮真自我” 的理念,探索皮革在当代鞋履中的创新表达与可持续应用。 我的设计聚焦环保循环鞋履与户外鞋款,擅长从传统文化符号中汲取灵感,将传统皮革工艺与数字化设计语言结合。在鞋厂实习与设计竞赛中,我不断拓展真皮材料的边界,通过再生皮革拼接、零浪费裁剪工艺为废弃皮革赋予新生,同时挖掘真皮在功能性鞋履中的潜力,让天然皮革的特质得到充分发挥。 我认为真皮不仅是承载质感与舒适的天然材料,更是传递设计温度与个人态度的载体,它的韧性与可塑性,正契合我对真诚、坚韧设计的追求。
