This workshop introduces participants to the creative world of Transformational Reconstruction, inspired by the innovative design approach popularised by renowned Japanese designer and educator Shingo Sato. Through hands-on learning, participants will explore how traditional trouser patterns can be transformed into contemporary fashion pieces using creative panel manipulation, patchwork detailing, and reconstruction techniques.
Guided by reconstruction concepts demonstrated by the trainer, participants will learn to trace and manipulate basic trouser patterns, develop unique design lines, and construct a pair of creative patchwork trousers using denim fabric. The workshop combines sustainable fashion practices with technical garment construction skills, encouraging experimentation, creativity, and individual expression while producing a professionally finished garment.

Tembusu Institute schedules classes on selected public holidays to cater to adult learners. Public holiday classes provide greater flexibility and accessibility for learners who may not be able to attend weekday or regular working-hour classes due to work, family or caregiving commitments. All schedules are planned and communicated clearly to students prior to course commencement.
We do not offer any make-up or replacement classes.
We highly discourage you from missing any classes since the entire program is designed to be hands-on intensive. There is also a minimum attendance requirement of 75% of training hours for Singaporean and PRs, and 90% of training hours for international students. If you do not meet the 75% attendance requirement, you will not be eligible to enjoy subsidies nor to sit for the assessment. Make sure you block off your time during your training with us or find an intake option that will ensure you do not miss any classes. You will only wish that you had more time in the class!
Class schedules, including lessons conducted on public holidays, are communicated to students prior to course commencement. Students are given the option to select an alternative schedule where classes do not coincide with public holidays at the point of enrolment, subject to availability. If a student chooses to proceed with a schedule that includes public holiday classes and subsequently requests to miss or defer a lesson for personal or religious reasons, standard deferment policies apply. This may include applicable deferment or administrative fees, in accordance with Tembusu Institute's published course terms and conditions. No additional penalties are imposed beyond these stated policies, and the same approach is applied consistently to all students.
