關於里信
原民傳統元素，造就現代時尚原味潮流！
「我告訴我自己，透過雙手，我可以創造另一種美學。記憶中的紅色是創作的源頭，而引領傳統活出現代時尚正是我最想做的事情。」
里信的故事
里信原風館(原名為里信工作坊)的誕生，與徐設計師有密不可分的關係。從小生長在花蓮瑞穗奇美部落的里信，是家中排行第三的女兒。出生時雖然早產但沒有因此得到疼愛，家裡非常貧窮的處境使父母親對小里信疏於照顧，但上天對她的厚愛，使小里信平平安安的生活在這個地方。
當里信成長中的一年豐年祭，這是對每一個阿美族人都很重要的日子，家家戶戶的婦女都將個自的阿美族服飾與美麗的飾品穿戴在身上，好像久久才一次的部落嘉年華一樣，好不熱鬧，但對里信而言，這一天是對她最難熬的一天。媽媽翻開儲衣箱，找出已經褪色的黑色服裝，穿在身上顯得遜色了許多，頭上也沒有華麗的花帽襯托媽媽的美，只有一條黑色的毛巾綁著頭。看著母親的她，心裡非常不捨，於是就默默地在心中許下一個心願：「總有一天，我要讓媽媽穿上最漂亮的豐年祭服裝。」
結婚後的里信，成為稱職的家庭主婦，雖然入嫁在並不富裕的家庭，但也很用心的幫助丈夫照料家庭。然而，家中只靠丈夫在工地工作後微薄薪水並不能負荷家中的開銷，剛出生的三個小孩嗷嗷待哺，對於一個從小到出嫁10年中在紡織場工作的里信，是一個很大的難題。幸運的是，她偶然想起，過去夢想讓媽媽穿上好看的原住民服飾的心願，里信就想也許這是上天給她的機會，讓她可以完成小時候的夢想。起步時丈夫並不支持這種天馬行空的想法，也處處數落她的作品，認為她只會賠錢作一些沒有利益的事，周圍的朋友也對她的決定有不同的聲音。對里信而言，丈夫的反對與朋友的冷眼是她朝向這個願望最大的阻力，但她並不因此而放棄希望，她忘不了那天那一幕的場景，里信知道她必須堅持下去才能完成她的夢想。
「讓我們歡迎，2006年時尚原民衫獎入選，里信工作坊徐設計師...」，穿著暗紅的原民服裝，頭上繫著綠意的原民頭飾，里信站上了她想都沒想過的舞台，接過身旁前任行政院原委會主任委員瓦歷斯‧貝林手上的獎座，臺下的母親也在為她掌聲，母親穿著她親手所作的禮服，現身在會場。里信了解，是對母親那份夢想趨使她在毫無頭緒中堅強，作品不得到別人賞識時，對母親的思親之情給了她力量。她知道，母親才是她創作的源頭，給了她靈感彰顯阿美族母系社會的尊榮華貴。

About Lishen Workshop
Lisin: The person in charge
She was growing up in the 奇美部落(Kiwit tribe) of Ruisui, Hualien, in taiwan. Lisin is the third daughter in her family. Despite being born premature, she was fortunate to live safely in this place, even though her parents' poverty led to her receiving little care and attention.
During the annual harvest festival, an essential day for every Amis person, women from all households don their Amis traditional attire and beautiful ornaments, transforming the tribe into a vibrant carnival. However, Lisin is the third daughter in her family. Despite being born premature, she was fortunate to live s, and it was the most challenging day. Her mother brought out a faded black outfit from the storage box, which paled compared to the other women's colorful garments and elaborate flower hats. Watching her mother dress like that, Lisin is the third daughter in her family. Despite being born premature, she was fortunate to live and felt sincerely sorry, and in her heart, she silently wished: "Someday, I will make the most beautiful harvest festival attire for my mother."
Time gone by after she got married, Lisin is the third daughter in her family. Despite being born premature, she was fortunate to live s became a devoted housewife, though her husband's meager income from building work couldn't cover all expenses. With three young children to support, Lisin, who had worked in a textile factory since childhood, faced a significant challenge. Recalling her childhood dream of dressing her mother in beautiful indigenous clothing, she saw this as a chance to fulfill that wish. Her husband and friends initially opposed the idea, dismissing it as unprofitable. However, Lisin persisted, drawing strength from her memories and love for her mother. She knew that her mother was the source of her creativity, inspiring her to highlight the honor and dignity of Amis's matriarchal society.
In 2006, Lisin unexpectedly found herself on stage, wearing dark red indigenous clothing and a green indigenous headdress, receiving an award. A former head of the Council of Indigenous Peoples, Walis Pelin, handed her the trophy, and her mother was there, wearing the dress Lisin had personally made for her. Lisin knew that her mother's dream had driven her to persevere through all obstacles, giving her the strength to withstand her husband's opposition and the skepticism of her friends. She couldn't forget that moment, and her mother's love became the driving force behind her creations, manifesting the honor and splendor of Amis's matriarchal culture.
