MOODBOARD
Inspired by Yoko Hasegawa, Mika Ninagawa, and Collina Strada—who merge opposites to create new worlds—I explored how contrasting elements can enhance each other. By layering organic and digital components, I discovered new ways to create depth and harmony, shaping the central theme of Nature × Artificial.


CONCEPT
To capture a dreamlike fusion of nature and artificiality, I photographed flowers through holographic film, creating an ethereal glow. Pressed flowers added a tactile contrast, while AI-generated textures introduced unexpected depth. This process redefined how I approached pattern-making, balancing two themes.


ICONS
The icons are developed through a mix of techniques:
Photography: Cropped from my original photos, highlighting the natural beauty.
Illustration: Hand-drawn illustrations, adding a unique, artistic flair to the collection.
AI Generated: Created with AI prompts, bringing a futuristic and imaginative touch.

BACKGROUND
Using AI, I created seamless backgrounds that blend natural textures with surreal elements. Experimenting with color, depth, and material effects, I refined how digital tools enhance traditional design.


PATTERN
Blending AI, photography, and illustration, I designed dynamic layouts with half-drop repeats for movement and symmetry for balance. This refined how patterns tell a visual story through structure and contrast.


COLOR PALETTE



PRODUCTS
Applying my patterns to various products tested their adaptability. Observing how scale, texture, and material influenced perception, I refined my approach to ensure the designs remained impactful across applications.





THE ASK
How do you blend nature’s organic beauty
with bold artificial energy?
