. 《鳥聚》
在設計界，傳統工藝的影響無遠弗屆，其中雀籠工藝以其巧妙的結構和美學，為許多設計師提供了靈感。基於這一獨特的工藝，我們創作了一款帶有開放式櫃桶的竹材桌子，配合由雀籠底盤三腳形態而成的三腳凳，旨在融合實用性與藝術價值。
《鳥聚》是一個桌凳套裝，它的設計靈感源於雀籠的形態，採用了優雅的曲線和通透的結構，表現出自然的美感。面板由竹板經過精細加工而成，展現了自然紋理的獨特魅力。開放式櫃桶設計不僅增強了桌子的功能性，還提供了額外的儲物空間，方便用戶隨時存放書籍、雜誌或其他日常用品。
In the design world, the influence of traditional crafts is far-reaching. Among them, the bird cage craft has provided inspiration for many designers with its ingenious structure and aesthetics. Based on this unique craftsmanship, we created a bamboo table with an open cabinet and a three-legged stool made of the three-legged shape of the bird cage chassis, aiming to blend practicality and artistic value.
《鳥聚》is a table stool set. Its design is inspired by the shape of a bird cage, using elegant curves and a transparent structure to express natural beauty. The panel is made of carefully processed bamboo boards, showing the unique charm of natural texture. The open cabinet design not only enhances the functionality of the table, but also provides additional storage space, making it convenient for users to store books, magazines or other daily necessities at any time.

. Circo
The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Campus Development Office formed a collaboration with School of Design students to give new life to the aged Block Z Lounge by creating a multi-functional environment where networking, socialising and solitary working can coexist harmoniously.
Circo addresses the brief by creating a visually unobstructed meeting area that combines comfort and productivity, accommodating anywhere from one to a group of people. With the high backing of the sofa, the inner circle has good acoustic performance for small to large group discussions. Around the perimeter are high table for individuals to work.

. Embrace
Among people with visual impairment in the world, lots of them are not totally blind.
As most low vision or partially sight impaired parents can see distances of less than 3 meters, they do not feel comfortable using existing baby trolleys as it limits their ability to navigate. Insecurity hinders the mobility of the parent when they are with their child.
Embrace repositioned the baby seat closer to the user so that visually impaired parents can see more clearly in the front. Also, the slightly lifted up baby seat allows visually impaired parents to reach their child easily to enhance their sense of security. Last but not the least, a built-in reverse brake helps to stop the trolley in case of emergency.
Embrace increases the visually impaired user’s mobility and their young kid, thus improving their quality of life.
