Beehive Fireworks

By day, the form evokes a Qing Dynasty merchant vessel surging through the waves, a frozen moment of splashing spray that crystallizes the harbor's former glory. As night falls, the artwork transforms into soaring Beehive Fireworks, using the interplay of light and shadow to whisper a serene prayer. The piece utilizes reflections on the water to create a symmetrical top down view of the fireworks, while the natural ripples of the water authentically recreate the erratic, crisscrossing dynamism of the pyrotechnics.

Dance With The Wind

The Luo Shan Feng is not only the wind but also the driving force of life for the local people. After learning to live with the wind, they also develop a lifestyle that suits local conditions. Under the strong wind, to create a soothing atmosphere, the shape is considered to be arc-shaped. Through works of art, the wind can blow away the fatigue in life and let people dance with the wind. The work uses bamboo and steel bars as the primary materials, and LED light strips are placed around them. The swirl-like shape attracts people into the space and becomes a space for tourist interaction.

Constellation

Constellation is a lighting project for a creative retail store in Singapore. Classic filament bulbs with a diameter of 95 millimetres are arranged at the entrance to add depth and visual interest. Within the main atrium, warm gradient illumination is combined with accent light to highlight architectural features and handcrafted items. LED strips and LED bulbs keep the power demand low. The layout is symmetrical and aligned with the floor, walls, ceiling and glass facade. The light is visible from the pedestrian walk, showing that the store is open.

Tubedex

Tubedex is a bus stop designed for post-industrial cities. The form is inspired by industrial pipes and is expressed through deconstructed circular tube elements. Brushed stainless steel is the main material, joined by cast connectors and screws. Solar panels above the roof supply energy, while LED lights behind frosted glass illuminate the waiting area. An interactive screen in bold red shows real-time information such as time, weather and the expected bus load rate. The aim is to make bus service information clearer and easier to read.

Infinite Wave

Infinite Wave is a design that materializes the flows of water and the variation of time in the Yuejin Port of Tainan, Taiwan. The installation takes on varied appearances as day transitions into night, where artificial and natural light cross paths, guiding viewers to perceive changes in both space and time. As moonlight slowly emerges, crimson rays reminiscent of blood permeate the artwork, allowing the contours to come into clarity. By the dead of night, as artificial light spreads across the installation, multidimensional light waves intertwine once again in space.

Skystation

Skystation is an interactive sculpture that also provides some public seating. The contours of the work are designed to fit the reclining human form and encourage contemplation of the sky. The seating it provides is similar to what NASA calls Neutral Body Posture, which is the shape the body returns to when free from the influence of gravity. Skystation creates an opportunity for pause, reflection and interaction within the public realm. It is inspired by the modernist idea of form follows function. It has the incidental effect of making conversations between strangers almost inevitable.
