Designed by Nature | Translating Birds into Shoe Design

In this video, I share how nature—especially birds—inspires my shoe design process.
Each design in this collection is not a copy of nature, but a translation of its rhythm, structure, and emotion into footwear.

🕊️ Hummingbird Design – A Note on the Process
Due to time limitations in the video, I didn’t fully explain one important part of the hummingbird design process, so I’m sharing it here:

The main challenge in this design was choosing the right tools.
Colored pencils, markers, or a combination of both—
while still keeping harmony with the entire collection.

In the end, I listened to my intuition.

This balance between technique and instinct is a key part of my design philosophy.
