CONE是一系列适合盛放小物品的锥形容器。容器只有一半封口,遮盖起其内的物品。轻轻推动容器,使它的开口向下,即可拿出物品。松开容器后,它会因为自重而回到原位。
Conical containers for small belongings. The container is sealed only halfway, behind which the contents are normally hidden. A gentle push rolls the opening downward to enable retrieval of the contents, and releasing the cone brings it back to the original position by its internal weight.

SCENT是一系列类似太空头盔的球状玻璃器皿,可用作花瓶和碗。鲜花和水果的香气被轻柔的包裹其中,只有靠近后才能被察觉。在磨砂玻璃的版本中,其内的物品被遮挡,更加强调了气味对嗅觉的吸引。该器皿的设计灵感亦来源于此。
Vases and bowls encased in glass spheres that resemble space helmets. The aroma of flowers or fruit placed within is gently confined, for the scent to be enjoyed by drawing near. In the frosted glass version, the contents are partly obscured, intensifying awareness of the sense of smell. Vessels born by accentuating the perception of scent.

和普通桌子的桌腿在桌面下相连不同,瀑布系列桌子一端的桌腿从桌面上穿过,并和不同高度的桌面相连。这样的设计使得原本作为支撑结构的桌腿看起来反而被桌面抬起,因而产生一种独特的悬浮效果。这个系列名为“瀑布”,是因为它们能让人联想起从岩石上方跌落的水。
A leg runs across the tabletops, instead of passing under, softly joining the tabletops in different heights. As a result, the table legs that should ordinarily support the tabletops appear instead to be supported by them, giving rise to a distinctive floating impression. The collection is named “waterfall” because it recalls water falling from the rocks above.

CUT是一系列被切除长方体框架一角的边桌。设计师将一块平板玻璃安插进切除了一角的木框架凹槽中,让这一系列产品获得独特外观的同时,拥有足够的强度满足边桌的需求。
Side tables with a section of the cuboid frame cut out. Fitting a sheet glass into the grooves cut in the wooden frame not only gives the tabletop a rarefied presence, but also grants sufficient strength to fulfill its purpose as a side table.

回形针是一系列椅子。椅子的腿向外延伸,使得椅子的靠垫可在延伸处和扶手之间自由滑动,并向回形针一样固定在适当的位置。椅子的磁性坐垫是可移动的,因此使用者可随意组合坐垫及靠垫的材质和颜色。
A chair that holds the cushion in place by sliding it in between the arms and the extended legs, like a paper clip. The magnetic seat cushions are removable to enjoy easy customization by adding or removing seat/back cushions and the combination of fabrics and colours.
