Double Gauze Tea Towel / Urban Renewal Brown
Inspired by everyday life, this tea towel doubles as a beauty pageant winner in the world of cleaning.
Designed with single-layer double gauze, it dries faster and provides a larger surface area for convenient wiping. Featuring a printed design on one side and a solid white color on the reverse, it serves multiple purposes, from wiping beloved tableware and cups to cleaning water stains on the kitchen countertop. Additionally, it can be used to cover appliances to prevent dust accumulation and folded as a heat pad for cookware.
There's no need to define this highly absorbent fabric; having it naturally adds a lot of joy and ambiance to your life.
The minimalist floral patterns draw inspiration from urban scenes in Taiwan, capturing details often overlooked, such as the linear arrangement of tin houses or the weathered patches on walls due to rain erosion.
Print stories about urban renewal
I have been here for many years, and some of the passing scenery still makes me unforgettable.
The earliest ancient food street on the fourth floor of Yongle Market can only be seen in the movie ''Lucy''.
Even the rebuilt western-style buildings are slowly growing new acrylic signboards, and the buildings are constantly being demolished and replaced. Dihua Street is actually a cement world covered with red bricks on the outside. What we think of as tradition has actually long ago Covered by cement, there is no trace of concealment.
Every element in this piece of fabric represents everything I have experienced here. The cross-shaped structure is like a map, and it also symbolizes the old buildings that were demolished during the urban renewal period, and were replaced by steel structures that were quickly pulled up from the land.
There are always many bungalows being demolished here. Our view of Guanyin Mountain is gradually replaced by field-shaped steel structures that have been pulled up from the original site. The whole city is full of changes. Sometimes this checkerboard feels like a map. When I wander around Yongle Market, I can never find the exit, even though I have been here for so many years.
When I calm down and think about Dihua Street in my heart, I feel like we are just passers-by on a recruitment notice, or like an apartment that is about to be demolished. The memories of decades of people have left no trace. , let the new steel frame and cement record a story again.
