俗語有云「人靠衣裝，佛靠金裝」。簡而言之，你穿戴什麼，也代表你是什麼。

人對任何空間、人物或物件的看法往往從表面上看，經常取決於外在的粉飾。為了挑戰這種社會文化對物料單一的理解，本次展覽讓時裝設計師和建築師交換材料進行創作，挑戰一般物料的極限和潛力，試圖顛覆大眾對物料的既定印象。也許建築立面上冷酷的金屬板可以變成溫暖的外套？堅韌的牛仔褲可以重塑水泥房間，輕軟如雲？我們希望藉實驗賦予物料新定義，讓觀眾對時裝與建築設計物料之間的邊界，以至物料對社會及文化的涵意，產生雙重或甚至多方面的新想像。

A Chinese saying goes “Human relies on clothes, Buddha relies on gold”. In another words, you are what you wear.

Our perception towards any space, person or object can be quite superficial at times depending solely on what is put on the surface. To challenge this extremely singular social-cultural connotation towards materials, this exhibition asks for an exchange of materials between fashion designers and architects to experiment with the limits and potentials of typical materials in an attempt to subvert the stereotype in materiality. Can cold metal panel cladding on building facade be assembled into a warm coat? Can tough jeans be reconstructed into a room fluffier than clouds? In this experiment, we hope to generate a more dichotic if not multifaceted perception towards common materials across the boundary between Fashion and Architecture.
