Shanhai I

Shanhai I is a desk lamp with a built-in Bluetooth speaker. The modular design makes efficient use of desk space. A bearing hinge structure inspired by the shape of a swan egg allows the lamp arm to attach to the light pole and to provide 180 degree illumination. The lamp arm and the light pole also allow 360 degree damped rotation. The speaker and the lamp can be used separately or together for different situations. A full-spectrum side-glow grille structure reduces glare and gives soft light. The speaker covers 20 Hz to 22 kHz.

Silver Wings

Silver Wings is a desk lamp designed to protect the eyes of children. A curved light source 63 centimetres long illuminates a desk width of 1.6 metres, reducing differences in brightness across the surface. Two light wings can be folded downwards so that the light beams overlap, which reduces hand shadows during writing. A micro-surface diffusion panel spreads the light in several directions for even illumination. A knob and a screen control the brightness, the colour temperature and the timer functions.

Huajiang Science Lab

The specialized classroom serves as an experimental environment where children engage in fundamental scientific practices such as observation, inquiry, hypothesis generation, experimentation, and inference drawing within the natural realm. As education evolves, classrooms must adapt to contemporary needs. In addition to updating essential equipment, provisions for convenient access to and from the classroom are imperative. Spatial reconfigurations aim to facilitate increased interaction between teachers and students, fostering a relaxed and conducive learning atmosphere.

Detachable Sofa

Hanoi

Hanoi is a detachable sofa designed for flat packaging. The sofa is assembled in about four minutes without tools, glue or metal parts. Four beech wood pillars are rotated into threaded holes in the wooden base. Upholstered backrests and armrests are then attached to the pillars and fixed with threaded caps at the top of each pillar. Cushions are added last. The packed volume is two fifths of the assembled sofa, which reduces packaging, storage and transport costs. The structure recalls the Tower of Hanoi puzzle.

Boundless Forest

Boundless Forest is a reception center in Taiwan. The two-floor building covers 876 square meters and contains an outdoor area, a shared space and three show apartments. A wooden frame structure wraps the steel structure, while glass, grille, cypress, marble and stucco complete the material palette. Warm wood grain links the interior and the exterior and is highlighted by the lighting. In the shared space, window views replace solid walls and bring the surrounding greenery inside. Oriental aesthetics are applied in a simple and consistent manner.
