Hourglass

Hourglass is a multifunctional furniture that expresses the design concept of "one plus one is greater than two". It can meet basic needs and give people a sense of experience. The design is inspired by the art of time-hourglass. The hourglass is a symbol of time. When the sun is born, it is a "coat rack"; at noon, it can be used as a "shelf"; when night falls, it can be used as a "table lamp". The changes in different functions remind people to follow the direction of time and perceive the beauty of life.

Zero

Zero is modular, and proposes the elongation of the main piece through a simple connection of the cylindrical tubes, thus allowing different layouts, resulting in a sculptural and organic format. It is called Zero because it is close to the ground, because it offers a connection with the energy of the earth and a position open to the sun, to the sky. Zero depends on other pieces to be one. A major challenge was to find the correct angle of curvature to give the piece the anatomy that would generate comfort for the user.

Mob-Clock

Mob-clock is a table clock made up of a graded Mobius strap as the main body on a stand and a ball as a pointer. Although time is a linear one-direction concept, there are two repeating loops for each day, AM and PM, in normal clocks. Indeed, as in daily life, people do not switch their sides and continue and go on through the day; Mob-clock helps the user to have a natural feeling about time. In Mob-clock, the pointer moves in only one direction on one boundary of Mobius to pass 24 hours without any repeating and switching side and boundary.
