Toucan Bay is a hand-drawn print collection that revisits and reimagines a previous body of work I developed, now seen through a refined lens. Rich in textural motifs and moody color palette, the prints bring about a sense of quiet whimsy, creating a space that feels both familiar and fun. While more subdued in tone, Toucan Bay still echoes the spirit of Play Everyday through its process-driven development and thoughtful material exploration. The prints were brought to life through functional prototypes, including printed tea towels and tile coasters, emphasizing a playful balance between art and utility. This collection reflects a continued interest into how mood, memory, and narrative can shape the design of everyday objects, transforming them into tactile reflections of emotion and evolution.
