What do you like about using leather?
Leather is a very durable and natural fabric. Leather has special textures, and the texture of each kind of leather is different. It is a challenging process to think about what kind of concept expresses the characteristics of leather in the design process. It is also an interesting material to touch and observe during the production process.
