The design combines origami folding with the traditional crafts of washi paper and lacquerware. A lacquer coating makes the plate resistant to water and oil, so the plate can be washed with water and detergent and reused many times. The geometric form is folded from a single sheet of paper, which keeps the plate light and allows it to be folded flat for carrying. The washi is produced with the Echizen Hikake technique, giving a surface texture that changes with the angle of the light.

Heralbony is a packaging series created for an art-life brand that applies artworks by artists with disabilities to fashion and interior design.

The selected paper is thick and has a craft-like texture. Only foil stamping is applied, in one position and one size, which removes the color proofing stage and keeps costs low.

Origami Mask is a face mask designed for special occasions such as weddings and ceremonies. The mask is made from a single sheet of Japanese washi paper, folded with the origami technique, without glue or stitching. Washi provides texture and breathability. Gold leaf decorates the folds, so the mask works as a formal accessory rather than a plain necessity. The mask is flat and compact when folded, and it forms a dome that creates space around the mouth when both ends are pulled. The folded mask fits inside invitations and can be stored in its package during meals.
