Internationally famous brand “YEN TING CHO” launches bow tie and necktie in NCKU “Banyan Souvenir Series”
Associate Professor Yen-Ting Cho from National Cheng Kung University (NCKU) Creative Industries Design Institute launches a bow tie and necktie in the campus’s “Banyan Souvenir Series”. Inherently optimistic with contemporary geometric elements, the products express dynamic motion with overlapping color shapes and send out a steady, calm feeling to symbolize the charm of the beautiful NCKU campus in Tainan city.
Based on well-known beautiful campus scenery, the “Banyan Souvenir Series” comprises a number of fashion accessories designed by Yen-Ting Cho. The “Banyan” bow tie and necktie are the third collection in the “Banyan Souvenir Series”. Previously, Cho created a “Banyan” wool scarf and “Banyan Silk Satin Square”. Cho has used his own interactive software “MovISee” to design these products. With the new bow ties and neckties, he has utilized the digital software to retain the tone of the “Banyan Souvenir Series” series but modified the patterns to create fresh, original designs.
The “Banyan Souvenir Series” encapsulates NCKU’s long-standing history and also weaves alumnus’ memories into design. Products from the series have been gifted to many important figures, such as Roger Martin, the former dean of the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management who has also been named the world’s most influential management thinker by Thinkers50, Pai Hsien-Yung and Lung Yingtai.
“The bow tie is more suitable for people of all ages, and also can give a lively splash of colour to faculty members,” said Yen-Ting Cho.
According to Yen-Ting Cho, the design team works closely with the printing company to ensure the specific position of different color shapes and preserve the delicate details of the pattern designs.
Dedicated to integrating interaction into design, Yen-Ting Cho’s works are shown in famous museums, international commercial exhibitions, and boutiques around the world.
