Living Laboratory
finished date: 2018 January
material: bamboo, cement
collaborate with: Shiue-Yi, Su
We use the Taiwan native bamboo ''Phyllostachys edulis''(or tortoise-shell bamboo). After being light polished, bamboos are ready for the cement filling. The most crazy and innovative part of the project is the balloon. People take advantage of creative balloon to shape form out of their ideas. Therefore, we use balloon to fill the cement, with the diversity of its possibilities, we are looking forward to achieve the unexpected form. We put bamboo and cement together, which is the same as the LEGO's combination work. With the help of drilling machine, we cut off the edge from the bamboo. And we curve it into round-smooth shape afterwards. Form follows function. Plus, we aim to make the product useful and handy. From candlestick to newspaper rack the variety of the living-space products we create are just to name a few.
