Shih Chien University

I’m a fashion design student at Shih Chien University, focusing on garment construction and creative pattern making. I enjoy hand-stitching leather and exploring how materials and structure shape design. My work reflects a balance between craft and concept.

PAPER SOLID

Category: Accessories

Competitions: Taiwan Region

本作品以紙袋的幾何結構邏輯為靈感,探討皮革脫離傳統曲線後的形態可能性。以矩形切割與直角接合取代弧線,使包體呈現幾何量體感;拉鍊沿邊緣走線,使結構語言與功能需求同步。與此同時,作品保留皮革在張力下的自然垂墜與皺摺,讓材料本身的有機性與幾何的嚴格形成對話——在秩序與變化之間,尋找新的平衡。 Drawing from the structural logic of the paper bag, this work explores the formal possibilities of leather beyond conventional curves. Rectangular cuts and right-angle joints replace traditional silhouettes, giving the bag an architectural, volumetric presence; a zipper traces the edges, unifying formal language with functional clarity. Against this geometric rigor, the leather is allowed to drape and crease naturally under tension — placing the material’s organic quality in dialogue with strict form, and seeking a new balance between order and change.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
