I sew 4 bags & a hat for a group presentation.  The fabric I used were given by a window application showroom.  I believe that most of those fabrics are linen (except multi-striped fabric--this may be cotton) and commonly used for high-end type of curtains, as well as bags.  For lining, I used the materials that I collected from my school--various kinds of free sample fabrics were found in school.   

バッグ4つと帽子1つを縫いました。布は窓関連のショールームから頂いたもの。ストライプ柄はコットンで、その他は麻だと思う(多分)。買うとものすごく高級な布でカーテンやバッグを作る為によく使われる素材。バッグ内部は学校から頂いたもの:色んな色&柄の無料の布サンプルが学校にあったので。

30cm adjustable set-square cases

Order for my Interior design classmate
Zipper opening
Velcro opening
Back of the case
I sewed a cover for the 30 cm adjustable set-square the other day. I used a zipper to open/close the cover so that it would be easy to take this set-squere out whenever I needed to use. I made the cover because I didn't want this equipment to get damaged while I would carry to school. 

A classmate sew this and fell in love with this idea.  I got an order from him immediately. Using the fabric he liked, I made another one tonight. 

A zipper opening is quiet handy, but it is quite complicated process to attach a zipper in the lined case, especially if the case is a triangle shape.  I tried to explore a better shape for the case--easier and faster to make while maintaining the practicality. So, I made a second one with Velcro tapes.  It was easier to make than a zippered one, but I'm not 100 % happy with this one yet. There is still room to improve... there must be a better way to make it simply and more time-efficiently way... 


Residential design, Zen bathroom, Re-packaging assignments

Tight style rendering-Inspired by Kengo Kuma (Watercolour)

Last semester, I completed my Zen bathroom design assignment. I used Copic marker for rendering. 

This time, my teacher asked me to pick 2 distinct rendering styles (Loose drawing and Tight drawing) , which were done by other professional designers.  I chose Kumiko Inui for Loose one, and Kengo Kuma for Tight one.  Then, the teacher asked me to re-package my bathroom design in those 2 styles (Meaning "coping other people's styles").  I used pastel for the first time in my life--took me a while to learn how to use this medium, but I quite enjoyed it.

前学期は禅をテーマにバスルームをデザインする課題が出ました。コピックマーカーで色は仕上げました。

今学期はデザインの仕上げ方が異なるデザイナーのスタイル(自由な画風と厳格な画風)を選び、模倣するのが課題です。自由な画風はいぬいくみこさんを、厳格な画風はくまけんごさんを選びました。パステル画には初めて挑戦しました。コツがつかむのに時間かかったけど、かなり面白いミディアムでした。
