PROJECT OVERVIEW

 


Inspiration taken from the Ifugao's (Indigenous Filipinos) cultural resilience and adaptability, HabiLahi is a portable loom kit that provides community engagement through tangible learning for the weaving community. The simplicity of the design promotes conservation and repairability, encinuating care and reason for what you create and starting and/or continuing traditions.
