'My mission is to create products that will ignite the sense of who we are. 'It was a handbag inspired by mangroves that enabled Ivan Fabia to become victorious at the Design-A-Bag Competition 2024 in Hong Kong last March. Aptly titled “Rooted,” the bag, with its wrinkled texture and curved lines, was definitely an eye-catching piece. But for the 25-year-old emerging designer, for an accessory to become a true statement piece, it must also tell a story.
My design aesthetic is always Filipino. Anything that would speak, narrate, and identify parts of who, what, when, where, why, and how of us, as Filipinos fuel me to design. For the technique, I always start with the inspiration or story I want to convey and ask myself the question: What would differentiate this from the products that have already been produced? Then, I follow my design ethos of innovation, sustainability, and empathy.
“Rooted” is inspired by an experience and appreciation I had during my travel to the mangrove lagoon of the Great Sta Cruz island in Zamboanga City last May 20, 2023. 46 out of 70 species of mangrove could be found in the Philippines and one part of the tree that I find interesting is the root system.
