About Embroidery Collection Mahi Matua: Noho Whakapaipai

Tuhinga Pukapuka: Ko te Kohinga Whatu he rōpū noho whakapaipai me ngā tēpu mō ngā wāhi noho. Kei roto i te kohinga he sofa mō te tangata kotahi, he sofa mō ngā tangata tokorua, he tēpu kawhe me tētahi tēpu taha. Ko te "smocking", he tikanga tuitui-a-ringa i tangohia mai i te ahumahi kākahu, e kohi ana i te kaka kia hanga ai ngā pekepeke, ā, ka whakaahua i ngā tauira whakaani ki runga i te whakapaipai. Ko tēnei taipitopito smocking te whakakapi i te tikanga "hub-pulling" i whakamahia i roto i te mahi sofa tuku iho. Kua whakakotahitia te kaka me te hiako kirikau i roto i ia mea. Ko te whāinga, kia whakaatuhia te mahi toi o te whakapaipai i roto i tētahi āhua hou.

Unique Properties
The embroidery collection was inspired by the need to present the craftsmanship of sofa upholstery in a new way of the furniture industry. The craftsmanship in the original sofa uses the technique of pulling the hub to show the details of the craft. From this idea, we would like to apply handicraft techniques in other ways. By join in the work by choosing techniques from fabric work like smocking crafts.

Research
Smocking detail from fashion industry.
Inspiration
We inspired from if we want to create craftsmanship on a sofa in a new perspective, how we can create so we choose techniques from fabric work like smocking crafts that require both techniques talent, and delicacy by using sewing techniques, gently pick up the pleats and sew. To create bas-reliefs into various patterns. we used this smocking technique instead of the original hub pulling technique which creates a pattern and details that are different from the original form of the sofa.
Project Duration
The project started in May 2020 in Thailand and finished in December 2020 in Thailand, and was exhibited in Bangkok Design Week 2021.
Operation Flow
