Double X

This project was made as a live architecture lesson because the balance and the stability of the whole come only when the last piece is installed. By using the traditionnal octagram's pattern from the European Mauresque geometric art, this table is looking to find the best shape for being both aesthetic and structural. And all of that without requiring any screw or glue. The final result reveals the octagram's pattern through the structure, and makes two X on the table, thus explaining the name.

Lamo

“Misattribution of arousal“- During a situation which is unstable or dangerous, people will feel arousal; at that time, people will assume that their elevated heart rate is caused by how attractive they find from the opposite sex around them. The designer designed an experimental table set to facilitate a date. Laser cut stainless steel sheet can create unstable, bouncy and dangerous feeling during usage. While using the tableware, the tableware will be shaking due to the pressure of taking food. Cause the light will be reflected by the table edge, it will create sparkling reflection around.

XX Stool

The need for a collapsible and multifunctional furniture came when exploring the needs and design solutions in small spaces. The challenge was to design the furniture as compact, light and as useful as possible. The legs are made out of steel to provide support and stability, they are designed to form two X's that enable the stool to collapse for transportation or storage. It is designed for people who live in small spaces or anyone who would like to save space in their living or working areas. XX Stool can be used as a stool, book/magazine storage and a side table.

Floating

This is a set of adjustable office workstation designed to create a unique and office environment and to seek a free style of work. The idea is to gather office-dedicated systems onto the ceiling, leaving an empty space beneath the workstation. Having the desk float in the air, one may allow his body to move freely without constraints. If a space for meetings, party or a chit chat is needed, the movable workstation can be very beneficial. It further advances the potential use of space, contributing to greater efficiency of communication.
