Using the transformation of the form, tr ying to express my breakthrough. The work of “Ver tical and horizontal� told me that this is not only a breakthrough in the ratio of beauty, but also a breakthrough in cognitive design.

THE START OF BREAKTHROUGH
Caugth Unprepared Plus + Size / 120 . 120 . 1000 mm Material / wood . iron
The cut ax chopped is so deep that makes the tree going to fall. And I want to use this idea to convey the sitution when emergency pop up.It is just like the circumstances in our daily life.We have to beat these challenge that pop up unprepared. Plus is as the name suggests, this job challenges me is to make different materials together, how to use the material to express things, and what the material feels. The material issue is the impor tant problems that I must solve. Because of this project I understand how to combine the different materials together. Through the plus I understand more material around us can be used.

Size / 200 . 300 . 500 mm Material / orfit . iron Suppor t + structure + movement . I want to create a device which can wear on our foot just like an armor . Therefore, I make a wearable device that could move ever ywhere we want and also could sit ever ywhere we want . Suppor t structure. I always see a chair is located on the ground, so I imagine can I design a suppor t structure, which can be used by user anywhere.It was a ver y tough project for me to do, not only in the organization has many problems, the most difficult things is how can I combined the hard structure with my feet ver y obediently. After the dozens of failure, and I found the orfit. Finally I solved my difficulties. This project is challenging, but it is also my most accomplished works this year.

Looking At Myself Deeply
When the runner prepare to sprint on the star ting line , he might be both ner vous and excited , and it is my mood , too.The gradual change of the runner ’s thigh muscle is filled with energy and dynamic . This is my attitude that I want to express when doing the design work . It's always fun to looking at yourself. Knowing myself and projecting it in the project will not only make me more aware of myself, but it will also make me learn that when things are as big as people, it must have something to be solved.In my work the angle is too tilted, and it can’t stand, but for tunately, I used the weight of cement to solved my problem.

Collision Designer’s Play
To convey the conflict between new idea and old thinking , I use the soap and cement . Because the characteristic of these two material are similar with my opinion . Using the magnifying glass to obser ve its details between these entirely different stuff . Then we can clearly see the interesting relation on my work .
Between Art And Design
Designer ’s play is the most special project, through the thinking before we go, and from the trip to find the answer. This time we went to Taitung, and I hope that I can travel in this trip to find out the difference between ar t and design, using the materials presented in Taitung local aborigines. Not only the local landscape but also the ar tists we visited, Zeng Zhengyuan greatly gave me a big impact. It is a wonderful experience for me in design.

Although the final product is still no way to move, but also because of this, the har vest even more in the past.

Before The Start Of Product Design
02 THE SHAPE STUDY
Before star ting to designing the products for SONY, we obser ved the shape of their products, tr ying to find out the clues of their form.
The Sketchs Before II Start I sketch some different shape when I am studying the features of SONY.

Model Comfort
Using the round shape to convey comfor t，and the shape below round is connect with the clue “Y”.And it is link with the details behind the round shape.I also use the “Y”shape on headphone to convey comfor t，it’s the same as my design.I use “Y”shape to demonstrate the better readability inadver tently.

THE MODELING OF NEAT & COMFORT I design two different par ts of feelings. On the front side I tried to express comfor t of SONY. And on the back side I want to tell the people of its neat design. So I use the plump shape to convey its cozy feelings and the sag shape to express its clear feelings.

Sony United
I research the history of Sony and try to findout its Big ideal. Then concluded the difference between other brands like Samsung and Apple.
BIG IDEAL
Sony’s products is always related to personal experience, like movie, VAIO, PL AYSTATION, WALKMAN and so on. They are not necessities,we can live without them.The reason SONY exist is to create human being’s desire,and go in to their life. SONY provide a dream,in order to achieve this dream, they retain curiosity and sincere.Give mankind a life with carefree and without worries.SONY help us make our dream come ture.

TR-55 / TPS-L2 Two products that I studied
TR-55
NEW POSITION OF PRODUCTS
Before SONY invent TR-55,the penetration of radio is about 70 percent but listening to radio is a pleasure with family members at that time.It is just like watching TV with our family now.Thus SONY imagine that maybe we could have a personal radio for ever yone.Then SONY made their dream come ture and totally change our habit of listening to radio.
TPS-L2
NEW STYLE OF PLAYING MUSIC 33

SONY create the culture of personal radio so we could have a good time listening to music for our own.But SONY didn’t stop imagining the dreams.They eager to create a device that could listen to music but also don’t bother anyone.Therefore,SONY subver t the entire world again,they satisfy our craving.With the invention of Walkman,SONY create the headphones/earphones.It is an another popular culture which influence us until now.
Think Think the the way way that that Sony Sony invent invent TR-55 TR-55 TPSL-2 TPSL-2

Affordance & Product Semantics
?
Affordance Product Semantics
SHAPE
Affordance
Affordance is about “how to use.” We can obser ve it when using tools, doing housework or even eating meals.Affordance is ever ywhere in our daily life. It might be a shape, a color, or texture. With these clues,we may expect how to use the products. Other wise, we’ll be ver y confused.
EXPERIENCE
1
Shape Color Texture
Product Semantics
Affordance also can be more interesting as long as we think it more emotional. Sometimes affordance can be an experience of the object that we used to know. So when there’s a CD player that was combined with the experience of using the fan,we can not only get the clues of using it but also recieved a surprising experience. Therefore, it came to product semantics.

MORNING CALL
The Major Thinking Of my Product
I kept digging how to design more emotional. Therefore, I have an idea of combining alarm clock with telephone, just like the concept of “Morning Call�. Therefore, we may have another experience when we go to bed. It might be really fun while setting the time.
“Morning Call !”
“Dial The Number To Call Yourself Up”
ROTARY DIAL TELEPHONE
PRODUCT SEMANTICS
I design an alarm clock by using the clues of rotar y dial telephone. As our experience of this telephone, we will rotate the turntable unconsciously. Then, we can just set the clock by rotating the turntable.

AFFORDANCE
The hole is suitable for people to put their finger s in, and it’s shape is also reasonable for us to use. Therefore, I choose the shape of circle for my products.
