Modular Screen

Peep

Peep Screen is a modular and adjustable free-standing furniture designed for people to partition interior space and create private space. Users can build their unique screens and adjust them at any time. By combining two Chinese culture elements: landscape painting and oil-paper umbrella, this design conveys the emphasis of Oriental cultures on implicit beauty in a faintly discernible way. The designer reinterprets and balances the aesthetic relationship between the East and the West, the tradition and the modernity in a unique and objective language.

Micro Matter

The Micro Matter series is designed to take you out of this world for a moment, into another. It consists of a series of miniature worlds, floating inside upside-down glass test tubes. Towering houses, sky scrapers, campsites and a water tower, each sculpture inspires the next. Except for the glass tubes, everything is handmade. All different kinds of material are used, that are found while traveling or out in nature.

Meteorite No.K11

"The Meteorite No.K11" was created on the main piazza of the Guangzhou K11 mall to celebrate multiple occasions - the K11 brand's 10th anniversary, the Guangzhou branch's grand opening events and the 2019 holiday season. The 10-meter-high art piece took on the form of a radial meteorite, making an impact onto our planet. Its body is crafted of stainless steel, finished in a futuristic metallic chrome. Digital lighting was programmed to changed colors in pulsating rhythms to achieve an energetic and hip visual effect.

Lichtglas

This object is both a lamp and a sculpture, depending on the intention and use of the viewer. An oval glass disc partly framed and mounted on a steel stand can be illuminated by LED. The glass was melted using a special technique with several layers at the GLASLICHTKLANG atelier in Urstall/Southern Bavaria. The object is suitable for indoor and outdoor use.

Crystal Light Sculpture

Grain and Fire Portal

Comprised of wood and quartz crystal, this organic light sculpture uses sustainably sourced wood from a reserve stock of aged Teak wood. Weathered for decades by the sun, wind, and rain, the wood is then hand shaped, sanded, burnt and finished into a vessel for holding LED lighting and using quartz crystals as a natural diffuser. 100% natural unaltered quartz crystals are used in each sculpture and are approximately 280 million years old. A variety of wood finishing techniques are used including the Shou Sugi Ban method of using fire for preservation and contrasting color.
