Cup Concept LED Table Lamp

Paper, glass or plastic cups serve as lampshades on the piano lacquer lamp stand of the Cup concept. Since the shades are different in style, pattern and colour, each creates a highly individual light quality. Thanks to the LEDs, the lamp consumes little energy yet promises a long lifespan. Cup concept comes with a charger and power supply unit, so that the lamp is always ready to use.

Victoria in Supermarket

超商裡的維多利亞乍看之下是一組普通的維多利亞式家具,而細看就能發現,其實是由台灣本土品牌的瓶瓶罐罐所偽裝而成,運用翻模的技術,並保留瓶罐上的所有細節。

超商裡的維多利亞造型上所使用的瓶罐包含了勞工階級常喝的藥酒、高粱酒、提神飲料,以及鄉下孩童最愛的乳酸飲料及彈珠汽水,其瓶身設計皆行之有年。而這些 低價、被認為是較 無品味的飲料罐組成了極大反差之高品味家具,搭配上水泥特殊的紋理,讓每一件家具都獨一無二。

Lun Lighting

The goal with this lighting design was to reintroduce and to hopefully help the audience gain a different point of view about Chinese culture and design. My theme was the idea of “purity” – the materials used to make the light are transparent, and when lit up the light illuminates the outline of the shape without any unnecessary decorations or details. To an average American, their familiarity with Chinese products are the mass-produced souvenirs you can find in Chinatown. No one would buy it to decorate their house with seriously, even though the original designs that these cheap imitations are copied from are actually beautifully designed. With my light, I looked to preserve the purity of the traditional design, but with a contemporary twist so that it can be incorporated into a modern day living space.
