Ti lamp is designed to create a seamless user experience between people and the furniture piece they interact with. Regardless of whether it is in the living room, as a side/tea table or as a lighting object, Ti lamp represents more than simple ambient illumination or a piece of fictional furniture. It gives the space character and personality from its hand-knitted iconic shape sculptured by given light and proud craftsmanship passed from our grandma’s generation.

Symbolizing the eternal commitment of love, trust and hope, HEART OF LOVE is a unique collection by D.K. & Wei to make it every day a big day for one’s commitment. Inspired by classic photographing of a wedding ring on the bible with casted “love” shadow, the designers re-think the way conventional jewelries were made and creatively craft our iconic design with light and shadow.

Delicately crafted from sterling silver with rhodium plating for lasting beauty, this collection appears to be contemporary and minimum-looking with touching wear experience for ones to explore and celebrate the “heart” of true love and commitment.

HEART OF LOVE (心心相影) 的靈感來自很多攝影師捕捉到的一個有趣的現象，就是戒指在打開的聖經上留下心形的陰影，這一類戒指+聖經+心形陰影的照片成爲十分經典的攝影作品，廣泛流傳，很多人把他譽爲真愛的見證。設計師借此打破傳統首飾的造型方式，希望重現這一經典時刻，“心心相影”是一件有形，有意，有情景，見證真愛承诺的溫馨設計作品。

FRESH - Open smoking booth for air travelers

In this project, we offered a creative solution which is beneficial for both the non-smokers and smokers. This is a winning project for I.D. Magazine's Annual Design Review 2009.

People pick up smoking because of many reasons like liberating their tension and relaxing their mind. It is a habit, and knowing that it is bad for their health, they chose to have this habit. Meanwhile, non-smokers take seriously the negative effects of the second-hand smoke and insist that smoking should be banned in the public places. In Hong Kong, complete smoking ban was implemented from 1 July 2009 onward.

However, when smokers wait or transfer at the airport terminal, this habit often causes them inconvenience and troubles. Carrying with their luggage, smokers have to stay in the bleak and depressing airport smoking lounges or booths smelled like stale ashtrays due to the poor air ventilation. Moreover, they feel a lack of dignity staying in these smoking chambers, fish tanks and wire cages when everyone passes looking “sad” to them.

Staying comfortable away from second-hand smoke, non-smokers claim the right to keep their health, just as smokers claim their right to smoke and feel good. Smokers should have a fresh and comfortable space to smoke. They have as much as freedom as non-smokers do.

FRESH is an open smoking booth placed at the airport terminals. It offers a space for air travellers to break and vacuums away old smoke while emits fresh air. The booth appears to be a modern and sleek design with a circular arm stands on the base embedded into the floor. A cylindrical glass ash bin with metal top is placed on the center of the booth floor.

360°Spherical Air Wall

When this system starts, the old smoke is vacuumed by the arm top and base groove area where the low-pressure air is generated . The "air wall", a transition between the low pressure air generated and relatively high pressure air surrounded, keeps the smoke within it and to be purified. Then, the purified fresh air is sent out to the center of the booth from the lower part of the arm. The smoking space is therefore created by this invisible spherical “air wall” through which the travelers can walk conveniently.

Experience with sense and dignity

Firstly, it creates a nice open space for smokers with luggage to walk through conveniently without even notice by themselves.

Secondly, it makes people feel that they are smoking in the open public area filled with fresh air. This offers them comfortable and relaxing experience compared with traditional smoking lounges or booths which are rather smelly, depressing and bleak.

Thirdly, it breaks the traditional rules of constructing the smoking lounge or booth. Smokers benefit psychologically from this open and sculptural booth design without any feelings of being caged. It offers a dignified solution for the smokers.
