Culture

Comforts

In collaboration with jaime tai and ben pendlebury

This project is designed to deconstruct regional comfort foods to bring a contemporary twist. Food that is classified as commonplace and instinctively consumed by locals from various countries including Japan, Mexico and China is developed, so an innovative fusion idea can be explored. 

​
