"Blue Awakening" is a collection rooted in sustainable development and environmental protection, blending natural and technological elements. Each design incorporates I recycled materials like organic cotton and natural fibres, extending the lifespan of these fabrics through techniques such as splicing, dividing, and stacking. My primary colour palette features low-saturation blues, transitioning into khaki and dark green to create a harmonious, natural visual effect, while olive green adds a vibrant touch. The irregular shapes inspired by geometry and leaves symbolise the symbiotic relationship between humans and nature, reflecting my commitment to ecological balance.
