CIRCLE
CIRCLE is a device that aims to help users who work from home find a good work-life balance, especially when they’re living with others. It’s a “vibe” clock with a separate signal light, which provides a better atmosphere for work as well as communicates about your working status with your living partners so they will know when you need some time to focus.

Back and From furniture set
This design project is a furniture set inspired by Chinese product memory of the 1990s. By translating the old fashion into a current context, familiarity, and psychological or emotional resonance can be brought by new products to face the new challenge of localization in the new period of globalization.
Extrapolate
Object and context are inseparable. Meaning, interpretation and function are derived from the relation between them. Extrapolate is a luminaire which refers to and extends the object and context using existing points, becoming a versatile object. It became the start of a series of objects, which integrate with the context. Intersect is a hanger based on using a corner for stability. Offset uses a flat surface of a table, desk or shelf to extend its use and functionality for storage.
On Disparity
A study at the intersection of user and object, and how the word disparity became a concept that enables designers to create very different experiences.
Standing Out to Fit In
This project is aimed at re-imagining the aesthetics of lower-leg prostheses, striving to eliminate the shame associated with cosmesis. Guided by conversations with lower-leg amputees, the resulting 3D-printed titanium prosthetic combines the technical desires for energy-return and adjustable heel heights with a 3D-knitted sleeve to satisfy immaterial and emotional preferences to fill out pants. The final product affords natural movement and a prosthetic to be proud of.
