Plastic Recurrence

Plastic Recurrence is a series of public benches made from recycled household plastic waste. The twelve benches were designed for a district town hall in Hong Kong, using plastic collected from the same district. Each bench is assembled from only two module types, repeated in varied lengths and rotations. The rotated modules form curved shapes that recall ripples on a river. Tactile textures and uneven colour make every bench distinct. The curved form gently separates users and lets children sit in free postures.

Balustrade

Balustrade is a chair designed for short and temporary rest. The design is inspired by unconscious behaviour, such as leaning on a table or against a balustrade. Balustrade offers two sitting positions. The first is sitting directly on the top, like a chair. The second is a leaning posture, like leaning on a railing. The form is simple, and the intent is brief use rather than long comfort. Several units can be overlapped to reduce transport volume. The chair measures 620 by 385 by 720 millimetres.

Diagonal

Diagonal is a desk designed around a single geometric idea, the diagonal line that joins two opposite corners. The tabletop is made of plywood with walnut veneer, and the veneer pattern follows the same diagonal guide. The two stands are made of steel with a powder coated finish, and both stands are placed along the same line. The main structural skeleton is hidden inside the tabletop and carries the load through three short columns to the stands. A bevelled edge and a gap between top and stands make the surface appear to float.

Ege

Ege is a series of kilims reflecting an admiration for the visual and emotional expressiveness of the sea surface, with its fluid movements, and hues of color reflections that create a relaxing effect on the human psyche. Taking its inspiration from the blue Aegean Sea, the collection reinterprets centuries old craft traditions of Anatolian kilim weaving with a modern, contemporary and sensual design approach. Handwoven by Anatolian weavers using 100% sheep wool, Ege collection aims to bring the Aegean spirit full of sea, wind, sand and nature to the interior space.

Flow

Flow is a collection of glass vases inspired by the movement of liquid glass. The collection has three shapes and is offered in blue and purple. Each vessel is mouth blown and shaped by hand, then signed and numbered, so every piece carries its own pattern of color within the glass layers. Heights range from 90 to 250 millimeters. Traditional Finnish glass blowing techniques let the color move freely between the layers. The intent is to bring calm and a play of light and shadow into everyday interiors.

Hourglass

Hourglass is a multifunctional shelf that combines a coat rack, a storage shelf and a lamp in one piece of furniture. The frame is made of three colored stainless steel elements, and two boards of different sizes serve as the laminates. The boards and the metal frame are joined with angle iron screws. A screw at the top of the frame works as a coat hook. The lamp can be detached and carried to other places, and its low temperature light source does not heat up. Hourglass measures 500 mm in width, 500 mm in depth and 1700 mm in height.
