About

My method "Transformational Reconstruction" is to create garments patterns  without measurements, quite different approaches from conventional +1-1 mathematical systematic 2d flat methods.  This technique enables experts as well as amateurs to perform creative studies and experiments with pattern cutting and design. Shingo Sato combines the complexity of origami, haute couture, flat pattern design, and draping in his designs with unusually elegant seaming that let the materials flow around the body. Futuristic shapes, optical illusions and mind bending fabric transitions are my trademark. I shape my designs with traditional twodimensional pattern techniques to achieve three dimensional effects, often cut in waves, Stripes and other geometric patterns of fabric and colour. The finished garment seems a mystery, as no means of assembly are visible.
