New printing room.
Dark(screen exposure) room. The bright thing is our new custom-made stainless sink for washing screens, magical exposure machine is on the other side -it's too big to get through the dark room's door so we had to saw it into half then re-install it in the room.. huh!
First workshop day with fashion and textile designer Isabel -she's trying out print her 2-layer pattern design on a piece of black fabric.
