About the object

Her pattern design concept involves layering geometric patterns with different rhythms. She designed the sheet curtains for shading or space separation functions. As the pages move, the interplay of patterns and the play of light and shadow created in different phases of the layers provide a visual experience. She developed her sample designs based on the characteristic motif of Sárköz, which has an outstanding weaving culture in Hungarian folk art, and created an abstract design that fits into a contemporary environment.
