Time Book

Time Book is a bookend designed for use on a desk or a bookshelf. Each bookend is made from a hand-polished crystal glass block. Special ink is screen printed on the surface and cured at high temperature. The high density of the crystal glass gives the bookend stability in use. The design is minimal in function, form and material, and resembles a book-shaped sculpture. The form presents the function clearly. The printed text uses the Quinsay Parto typeface. The letters MMXIX on the spine are the Roman numerals for 2019.

Cloud

Cloud is a chair inspired by a rain shower seen over the coast of Okinawa Island in Japan. The seating surface is made by piercing polyester fiber into polyurethane foam with a needle, which creates a soft cloud-like appearance. A high seat gives the seated person a floating sensation. Mirror-like stainless steel legs and a pedestal are formed from thin round bars that express falling rain. The number, length and diameter of the bars were carefully determined. Cloud is handmade from stainless steel, polyester fiber, wood and polyurethane foam.

Codependent

Codependent melds psychology and design, specifically focusing upon the physical manifestation of a psychological condition, codependency. These two intertwined tables must rely upon each other to function. The two forms are incapable of standing alone, but together create one functional form. The final table is a powerful example of which the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

Dhyan

Dyhan lounge concept combines modern design with traditional eastern ideas and principles of inner peace by connecting with nature. Using the Lingam as form inspiration & the Bodhi-tree and Japanese gardens as a basis on the concept's modules, Dhyan (sanskrit for meditate) transforms the eastern philosophies into varied configurations, allowing the user to choose his/her path to zen/relaxation. The water-pond mode surrounds the user with a waterfall & pond, while the garden mode surrounds the user with greenery. The standard mode contains storage areas under a platform that acts as a shelf.

Office Chair

Basto

Basto is an office chair designed for long working hours. The backrest frame is ultra-thin and the overall style is minimalist, with simple and quick operation. A dynamic balance mechanism allows the seat and the backrest to swing at the same time. The seat turns freely with the body of the user. The cushion has an inner shell larger than the outer shell, which adds elasticity at the front edge and reduces pressure. A special mesh with Italian yarn is soft to the touch. Nylon forms 70 percent of the materials and the recovery rate reaches 97 percent.
