Introduction

We draw inspiration from everyday objects, transforming the “clipping” actions of items like paper clips, bread tags, and fasteners into a design language.

Though small and often overlooked, these objects play essential roles in connecting and securing things in daily life, symbolizing relationships between individuals. Each unit can exist independently, but when they clip together, new orders and structures begin to emerge.

Through this visual translation, *CLIP!* can also be understood as a process of building relationships—forming connections across differences, allowing originally separate elements to come together and function as a whole.
