Our Works
From garments to pillowcases and garden planters, we give pre-owned materials new life and keep them away from landfills.Featured Project
Gathered Cloths
An active study of collecting and repurposing textile waste into functional and modular apparel design. Growing amount of scrap cloths are gathered and assembled into a new form with each iteration.
Initiated during Climate Creative Spring 2021 cohort participation, the Gathered Cloths project invites better awareness of textile waste, encourages textile repurposing efforts, and welcomes contemplation of textile lifecycle and its importance in meaningful climate actions.
