Here’s why.
country. For Zhoujie, Kickstarter and the design-supportive community of the United States is the perfect launch point. He believes that Kickstarter is the right platform to find the support needed to launch an entire digital revolution, a generation of backers that understand and identify with his vision.
Our Kickstarter campaign begins in September and lasts through October. With your collaboration, we will make history by launching China’s first industrial design project, and the world’s first digitally-generated steel vessel collection.

Fundamentally, the core of Zhoujie’s design process is creating a collaborative environment between the designer and the computer . Utilizing custom designed software, Zhoujie codes a series of rules for each pattern. Every rule that Zhoujie adds is a limitation which determines the shape, size, and style of each design. After carefully selecting the limitations, the computer generates the most logical pattern that can fit within these specifications. However, each computer generated pattern is constrained to the screen, and can only be represented two-dimensionally. This leaves it up to Zhoujie to discover their potential three-dimensional form, and their practicallity as a functional object.

digital models are transposed for printing
each pattern is laser cut out of a single sheet of paper
After Zhoujie is satisifed with the computer’s generated patterns, he selects the few which he considers to have 3D potential. Using laser cut paper, he folds, shapes and reshapes the patterns to discover the best possible outcome for each computer generated pattern.
c
finally Zhoujie‘s team hand-folds each pattern and begins to develop the vessel’s 3D shape

L a ser - c u t m e ta l Once it can be established that the computer generated pattern can be shaped three-dimensionally, it is scaled to final size and laser-cut onto a solid piece of stainless-steel.
Finally, after each steel pattern has been laser-cut, it is polished and hand-folded by Zhoujie and his team. Because each vessel is carefully hand-folded, its exact shape cannot be perfectly replicated. Given this human touch, every vessel is unique.

Zhoujie Zhang’s fantastical design brings to mind digitization and galactic travels. It’s near impossible to imagine that these futuristic designs came from a boy trained in classical arts in the rural village of Ningbo, China. Zhoujie Zhang has come a long way from Ningbo. After earning his MA in industrial design at Central Saint Martins College, he returned to Shanghai. Inspired by techniques learned in London, Zhoujie set out to produce his innovative steel designs. However, one by one every factory and workshop refused him, claiming that what he wanted to create was impossible. This didn’t stop him. He then spent 18 months learning welding, cutting, polishing and manufacturing. With this step-by-step knowledge of the production process, he gained an intimate understanding of the manufacturing process and created an in-house workshop. At the age of 28, he has already shown at over 30 exhibitions, including in London and Milan. During Zhoujie’s first showing at 100% Design London, his digital furniture sold out in less than half an hour to collectors and gallery owners. In the last three years, he’s acquired prestigious awards including the ELLE Deco Young Designer of the Year, the IF Design Award China and the SHDC 50/100 Young Talent of the year.
