What inspires young designer Lyubina Stamenova is a major part of her life. This is the sport - Karate Do! Exactly this sport formed her as a person, such as physics and thinking. His philosophy – culmination, gradation, patience, attention, observation, distance - have helped to build her own character. The relationships in this sport, solidarity, collectivism, positivism, which broadcasts are close and familiar of the designer for 11 years. This is the time in which she lived with the competitive atmosphere and is empathetic to all transformations in the sport. Aside sparring relationships, the accessories that contribute to the construction of this mystical atmosphere: tatami (soft bedspread on the floor), protectors for arms, legs, kimono (sport ones), etc., transferred you to a completely different world.
Here is an explanation of the word: Kyokuten - breaking point. This is the transformation of the spirit. Japanese meaning of the word Kyokuten is the apogee, culmination point, crossroads, breaking point. Kyoku - extreme degree, extreme limit, peak, culmination. Ten – point, sky. Kyokuten is an extremely important concept, having great importance for understanding the process of transmission of traditional knowledge (the philosophy of martial arts) from generation to generation.
