By exploring both the rational and emotional qualities of materials, this design expands the possibilities for material application and encourages innovation. The project focuses on demonstrating the logic behind collage design and shares the material-driven design process through three sets of collage examples.

Group 1 – 18.60｜18.61: Utilizes the material’s distinctive four-color square cells to create combinations that enhance visual illusion effects.

Group 2 – 18.93: Applies the material’s principle of color assimilation to deconstruct and reorganize forms, expanding the potential for material reconstruction.

Group 3 – RA033｜L29.279N: Draws inspiration from fabric patterns and applies it to wood veneer collage, exploring the transformation of materials and techniques across different domains.
