以台灣原生植物蓪草為核心,將其生長歷程融入手帳設計,轉化為自我成長的隱喻。透過蓪草從萌芽、伸展到成熟的階段,對應個體在不同時期的心理狀態與生命經驗,讓使用者在日常書寫中產生情感連結。手帳結合記事、拼貼與引導式頁面設計,引導使用者在記錄生活的同時進行自我觀察與反思,逐步梳理內在思緒,探索個人價值與方向。
此外,內容亦融入蓪草相關知識與圖像元素,使使用者在使用過程中認識這項具有文化意涵的台灣植物,提升對在地自然與工藝的理解與關注。透過一年時間的陪伴與書寫,讓自我成長的軌跡與蓪草的生命節奏相互交織,形塑一段專屬且具意義的成長歷程,最終達到自我認識與內在對話的目的,並建立穩定的書寫習慣與生活節奏。
同時,本設計亦強調手帳作為陪伴媒介的角色,使其不僅是記錄工具,更成為情緒整理與日常療癒的一部分,讓使用者在反覆翻閱與累積中,看見自身變化與成長的痕跡。
This project centers on Tetrapanax papyrifer, a native plant of Taiwan, integrating its growth cycle into the design of a planner as a metaphor for personal development. By mapping stages such as sprouting, growth, and maturity to human psychological states and life experiences, the design builds an emotional connection through everyday writing.
The planner combines journaling, collage, and guided layouts to encourage self-observation and reflection. Through this process, users can organize their thoughts and explore personal values and directions. It also incorporates visual elements and information about the plant, enhancing awareness of local nature and culture.
Over the course of a year, the user’s growth becomes intertwined with the plant’s life rhythm, forming a meaningful journey that fosters self-understanding, inner dialogue, and a consistent habit of reflection.
