This project gives me inspiration of dye the rattan material of my stool and it would have different color and pattern. And I found that If I deliberately skip some rattan, it will have pattern like blue and pink rattans.
I like these two material. The leather reminds me if I can use scrapped leather to make furniture or something. I think jad is more like a traditional style in jewelry design, and the designer’s morden one shocks me.
I like these two works with wild style but to some degree it is also geometric.
Using a totally antonym material to mimic the material is always my interest. I like sense of contrast. The metal mimic the textile but it is stiff, which is really interesting. The designed geometric metal with a organic wood piece has a strong sense of contrast. Utilizing natural things in design is popular recently and sustainable.
Interesting project of Fish & Chips.
I like the three-dimensional feeling of textile. And I think if the 3D textile is on furniture, it would be fun. The big textile jewelry breaks a conventional thinking.
This work really touched me. I think the one with the brush is like daily life things with some functions. I like the feeling but I prefer to be more practical. With this style it could be developed more.
It creates a sustainable material. The thing really attracts me is that it does not need any glue or other things to joint the parts.
I personally think this work is too rough since I have seen many cases of textile with different things. The idea is good. I think the designer should think more about the function of adding textile. What it can specifically be after integrating textile?
The idea of this ceramic clay is great. It utilize the coffee ground very well. Combining the clay with coffee ground to be coffee cup also makes coffee flavor more strong. And it is sustainable to use the waste of coffee production.
The ceramic stools use two different glaze, the top surface is matte and the legs are shinny. It causes more variation and the same style of color keeps the coherent. It uses extrusion way to make but has a organic feeling.
The stack way of paper-like ceramic reminds me of my newspaper project. It is a new way of making container.
These works are really cute.
This way utilizes the breaking cement to build new building. I suspect its strength but I think it is a very sustainable way.
This furniture reminds me of the possibility of CNC.
I really like the material and the craft skill of this work. It is made of steel wire. I cannot figure out how difficult to make this object. Its natural form really attracts me.
I like the chair with shells, which is really beautiful. The bench is really nice finishing.
Compared with Haoran Bie’s work, this one is much more bigger. It is a craft work I think. Haoran’s work could be massive duplicated and is a design. From the appearance, I think this work has more strong impact.
I like carving and Avator-like light of this work. The pearl there embellishs this work and makes it more diverse. It is definitely hard to join clay pieces with such thin thickness. It has more possibility of bigger things like stool, public light and etc.
