LUMINOUS RE-WEAVE
Conceived as an adaptive-reuse light sculpture, Luminous Re-weave bridges architecture, craft, and sustainability through acts of weaving and renewal.
Modular metal and 3D-printed frames stack into luminous columns, each hand-wrapped with reclaimed textiles and customizable skins.
Textile becomes both medium and memory, carrying traces of past lives.
The reconfigurable system transforms discarded materials into warm, architectural light,
inviting continual re-making and tactile engagement—where structure,
memory, and human gesture intertwine to reveal cycles of transformation and enduring material life.
