2008-2009
Salone Internazionale Del Mobile, Milan,
Italy
In 2008 and 2009, I participated individually in the “SaloneSatellite” competition, held as part of the Salone Internazionale del Mobile, the renowned furniture fair at Fiera Milano, Rho-Pero (Milan), Italy. At SaloneSatellite, young creative designers showcased innovative ideas and projects inspired by creativity, ecology, and sustainability, aiming to make “the big jump” into the production world by leveraging the presence of esteemed exhibitors.
In 2012, I collaborated with The SUPPORT Arts and Crafts International Centre of Thailand (now the Sustainable Arts and Crafts Institute of Thailand, or SACIT). on a specialized project called “Thai Navatasilp.” The objective of the project was to develop handicraft products, including textiles, ceramics, jewelry, metalwork, and woven items, to meet international standards. My contribution focused on designing textile products. Furthermore, this project was exhibited at the Tendance Fair in Prague, Czech Republic, in September.

Bringing Thai fabrics into contemporary fashion, I designed a dress using Pha Lai Nam Lai hand-woven fabric from Nan province, tailored for Gen X. The design concept is inspired by the Safari style, aiming to create a look that reflects the active and smart persona of modern working women. The dress, named "Safari in Town," embodies a balance between tradition and functionality for the present era.

Contemporary jewelry design that incorporates natural fabric weaving and embroidery techniques to create stunning sculptural pieces. Additionally, I used turmeric to naturally dye the fabric a vibrant yellow. The inspiration for this collection comes from the beauty of contemporary Thai architecture, reimagined through the use of fabric to create unique and innovative forms.

Innovative craft Award
by SACICT
In 2013, I participated in the Innovative Craft Award organized by SACICT (now the Sustainable Arts and Crafts Institute of Thailand, or SACIT). The criteria required collaboration with Thai communities skilled in traditional crafts. For my design, I chose Nang Yai, drawing inspiration from the intricate craftsmanship of shadow puppet figures made from perforated cow or buffalo hide. These performances were a popular form of entertainment during the Ayutthaya period. For this project, I worked with two communities from Krabi and Phatthalung provinces.

Highlighting Thai identity, this product uses hemp fiber as its primary raw material. The crochet pattern reflects femininity, while its free-form shape allows for a 360-degree view. Designed for practicality, it can be folded flat for easy transport. Additionally, this piece is a handcrafted creation made by a Thai local community, emphasizing tradition and sustainability.
The designs from this contest transformed my life, opening my eyes to a broader and more expansive world of design.
