Inspiration: I love nature and always have a though to make a bag relate to nature and environment. I always believe the design is relate to life and nature, therefore the Totepographic is being design. This tote bag is inspired from topographic and Chinese oracle bones "mountain". In combination with topographic and ancient word to form a wearable tote bag. It's conceptualized with Chinese ancient word and puts the topographic element into the design style. Black is to represent minerals element it also make the bag more secretive, and people will slowly discover the texture of the bag.
Project Duration: From design concept and production of Totepographic is started in July 2019 and was completed in May 2020. The product is for sale online through the Myura brand website, and pop-up event in Singapore.
