Material is typically treated as a surface attribute that supports form without determining it. In Daniel Lee’s work, material scale operates as a structural condition. Enlarged weaves, thickened textures, and amplified finishes reorganize proportion so that material presence becomes the primary organizing force.
Form is simplified to accommodate weight, density, and tactile emphasis. Luxury is not signaled through refinement or delicacy, but through controlled exaggeration that makes material itself legible as structure.
