The craft

Ikat is a traditional textile technique found across Southeast Asia, including Indonesia. The word comes from the Malay-Indonesian for “to tie”: threads are tied and dyed before weaving, giving ikat its blurred, organic patterns.

The idea

No two ikat motifs feel exactly the same. This modular series keeps that imperfect rhythm and reimagines it as contemporary, mix-and-match pieces.

Client: Personal series
Scope: Motifs · Repeat patterns · Textiles

The result

A library of motifs and repeats that can be combined freely on towels, cushions and fabric.
