Sound Wave

This collection turns sound into an object. Now people can not only hear the melody, but also see and touch it.

After that, the music was turned into an image of a sound wave using a special program. It became the basis for the silhouette of the lamp.

Hone

Hone shelf is a timeless and magnetic design inspired by natural forms, and arises as a reinterpretation of a traditional shelf through a conceptual alteration of the physical properties of the material.
