English	Our survey shows people prefer refabric products not too close to them because of the doubt of hygiene problems even if it has already cleaned. ReFabric Planter provides an aesthetic way for people to solve clothes over-waste problem. In 3-month experimental planting, we found plants grew well and planter is not mouldy. The planter has many capillaries on its surface so plants can absorb water and the root of them can get enough air. When transplanting, the roots of the plants can easily go through the capillaries of the planter. Users also can set it on the bronze frame and hang them on the wall or put it on the table.
Native	我們的研究發現人們比較能夠接受環保布作為盆栽，他們認為盆栽不會跟人體有近距離的接觸，因此比較不會有安全上的疑慮，所以我們選擇盆栽作為Hanji環保布的第一個產品。Hanji環保布可以吸收和保持水分，而在測試3個月後，植物仍生長得很好，且盆栽不會有青苔的現象。此外，由於Hanji布為環保材質，其表面有許多毛細孔，因此植物的根可以有足夠的空氣。當使用者將植物移植到土中時，不須擔心盆栽會限制植物根部的生長。此植物盆栽為手工製作而成，人們可以在我們提供的基礎線內自己在紙上設計盆栽的顏色和大小。在那之後，人們可以在Hanji布上剪出想要的形狀並製作出盆栽。製作完成後，可將盆栽放置在我們提供的銅框上。使用者可以將整組盆栽吊至牆上或是擺在桌上或地上。總體而言，此環保盆栽提供人們一個將廢衣物轉變成美觀裝飾物的創新方式。
