Pop Up Shop WIP

I finished 4 small bags for the pop up shop!
They all fit a A4 notebook. Furtherest one on the right has longer straps. It's quite hard to see in the photos but the blue straps actually have nice blue and pink patterns to them.
I must admit that I have this fetisch with architectural materials. Like wooden tiles, concrete walls, glass or brick walls. So I personally find these bags very attractive, they completely satisfy my fetisch, but I wonder how people usually think about these patterns. Do people also find them attractive, or do they appear as just dirty floors? Well, I get to find that out by whether people actually buy them or not. I still  believe that there must be architectural-material-fetisch-people out there. It can't be just me.
In any case, even if you still don't have any architectural material fetish thing, it's quite a nice memorial piece for soon-to-be-gone our current CSM building.

Now, I'm going to start making bigger versions of these bags, ones that'll fit A3!

Meanwhile you can visit our Pop Up Shop Website, to check out what other very talented kids are up to. Work in progress photos looking awesome and I'm already tempted to buy few things from others. I cannot wait to see them!

建築の素材(レンガだとか、ガラスだとか、コンクリートだとか、木とか・・・)が好きで好きでたまらないのだけど、そういう個人的なフェチを十二分に満たしてくれるプロジェクトでかなり楽しい!自分だったらこのバッグ買うと思うけれど、あまりに個人的に興奮しすぎて、普通の人は欲しいものなのか検討がつかない。。たとえマイナーな好みだとしても別にかまわないのは、少量生産・リミテッドエディションの良いところ。
そういう「売れる、売れない」みたいなことを考えながら作ってみて、ファッションやテキスタイル、ジュエリーデザイナーの気持ちがすこーしわかった気になったり。
