Inspired by the iconic Russian wood doll Matryoshka, this playful lamp collection combines tradition and modernity in a unique way! A gentle, feminine aesthetic provides warmth and coziness to modern ambience. The minimalistic design can be used as a single light source or as a cluster to form a sculpturesque pendant. In oak, beech and porcelain models, there’s a finish for every style of room.

GelenK is an exploration in transformable trucks for both long-distance and urban transport. The vehicle features a “split driving mode” where the trailers are not towed, but turned into individual autonomous vehicles. The system makes it easier to navigate crowded urban areas and move through small streets and narrow corners.

What if your gadgets knew how you were feeling? The Rapport project aspires to achieve just that! It’s all about facial expression. You look at it, it looks back at you and suggests some music. It understand whether you like it or dislike the tunes, and depending on your face, it either cranks it up or changes the music! Similarly, it communicates its own “feelings” with familiar expressions. Watch it in action —>

There are several reasons why I want to introduce the Center Stapler, but the primary one is for the fact that it can staple the middle section of a book. This one of the most hard-to-get places while re-binding a book and I know the pain, cause in high school I’d have to use scotch tape to do a shoddy job of holding the pages together! Anyhow, if the next-gen is this lucky, then someone will surely take this concept forward and make it see the light of day!

The cutest way to dry your cutlery! With a fun and functional aesthetic, this sink-side elephant takes the irritation out of waiting for wet dishes to dry. It collects the runoff water and directs it back into the sink, freeing up your counter space and keeping it dry.

A winner of the 2014 Driven/Undriven Michelin Design Challenge, the AKA24 concept goes beyond the brief to design a vehicle that switches between user-control & autonomy; it reimagines the entire transportation system as we know it. Operating on a maglev-like system of tracks, the vehicle moves to the protected side walls vertically in “undriven” mode & back to the center lane for the user-controlled “driven” mode. Set your destination & kick back in the multi-position cabin or take the wheel to navigate your own way!

Metropolis is a project designed to express two opposing bedside tables- one representing day and the other night. The overall shape of the tables are the same, but the details and colors are in complete contrast. Day is portrayed as more calm, friendly and inviting… while the night has more of a extroverted, polarizing, even sinister character.
Designer: Brian Khouw
The Portable Insect Repellent is designed as a sleek charm that can be attached onto your backpack and remain unobtrusive. It quietly diffuses the repellent and keeps your environment insect-free. I love the idea of keeping this simple-designed and portable; making sure you can carry it everywhere without feeling odd.
Designers: Wang He Zhu & Wen Xuan
