Technologia Productionis: This design incorporates warm materials like wood, rice beads, yarn, and embroidery. Laser-engraved patterns on wood draw inspiration from deity attire, while the dragon-scale bookbinding symbolizes faith. Wrapped in a scroll, it emphasizes tradition. The wooden sliding box, inspired by temple architecture, merges traditional craftsmanship with modern aesthetics. Inside, button sets, booklets, and cards rest in smooth wood, reinforcing the cultural narrative.
Provocatio Designandi: The challenge was making temple culture relevant to young people through buttons, merging tradition with modern aesthetics. We balanced cultural symbolism with contemporary appeal while ensuring precision in wood engraving, embroidery, and beadwork. Limited access to historical records and traditional techniques required careful adaptation. Additionally, designing a packaging system that felt both authentic and functional added complexity to the process.
Investigatio: This research explores how buttons can serve as a bridge between traditional temple culture and modern life. The study aimed to understand young people's perceptions of temple traditions and their willingness to engage with cultural symbols. Using surveys and interviews, data was collected from individuals interested in design and cultural heritage. Findings revealed that tactile, personal objects enhance emotional connection. This insight guided the use of wood, embroidery, and beading to create a warm, intimate interaction with the design.
Inspiratio: As younger generations drift from temple culture, preserving its history and faith becomes increasingly challenging. Drawing from the connection between "temples × buttons," we see buttons as symbols of bonding and connection, reflecting the emotional essence of faith. Through design, we create cultural products that blend seamlessly into daily life, making tradition more accessible and engaging for modern audiences.
Duratio Operis: The project started in July 2024 in Taiwan and was completed in April 2025 in New Taipei City.
Cursus Operationis: This design blends modern aesthetics with traditional culture, allowing users to engage with heritage in a contemporary way. The button set and booklet invite exploration of the deities' meanings while forming a personal connection. The wooden packaging opens smoothly, revealing the items and offering a tactile experience. This fusion of tradition and modern visuals sparks emotional connections, making it appealing to younger generations.
