cocoon lab


During the pandemic, I opened a studio in Taipei. Not just a yoga studio, as a multi functional experimental space, the idea is to allow people to come in and relax, recover, and come out feeling safe and rejuvenated, just like a cocoon.

Tote Bag Design

 

Product Design

We developed a house scent that is made with 100% all natural ingredients. Packed with an earthy mossy tone that reflects the humid climate of our motherland Taiwan. Key ingredients are 沒藥Myrrh / 聖木Palo santo / 橡苔Oakmoss.

We then made them into essential oil and mat cleaners.
