dough & mough

In 2023, dough & mough was officially registered as a small online business in Denmark in selling pastries. Founded by my French friend and myself, our designs and products aim to promote a fusion of French and Asian styles. The brand allows me to experiment all kind of digital drawing tools including Adobe Suits Photoshop, Illustrator, Procreate and Blender.

Santa’s Cocoon

A Project Dedicated to Our Mother-Earth

/Story/

We hereby introduce the new toys producing system at Santa’s toy workshop. Kids visiting him could collect natural resources and put them into the machines to produce Christmas gifts. these toys would contain the smells and textures of nature. I hope that this could encourage children to enjoy being in nature.

/Design/

To fight against climate change, we introduce the terrace system found in Igloo in Santa’s house. The warm air from the fire place would rise to the middle and upper level to create a warm space.

Also, we connect the space to facilitate linkage between programmes. The main activity space is linked with other functional space so that a clear pathway is created. the domeshaped rooms form a cozy space.

The prjoject aims to provide a playful and sustainable library for busy city context. We interpret library as a mobile and reachable facility where people can escape from busy life to enjoy some reading moments alone or with other people.

#FamilyRoot #DNAncestry #DigitalUrn #RememberMe #WeLove

This project proposes an alternative of reconstructing the genealogical topography of the city, by decoding DNA sequencing of a deceased person remains. Death isn’t an end, but a continuation of spirit in a family.

After cremation, ashes are analysed for its sequencing. The nucleobase codes get decoded into binary code that can be translated into a digital signal. Our portable digital urn allows an individual to trace his/her family history across the world, e.g. cross-national for people of mixed ethnicity or complex immigration background.

Families can worship the deceased members not only in their homes, but also in inflatable ceremony space installed in leftover areas (e.g. under bridges and flyovers), as a holistic, operational gathering space, softly lighting up for their deceased loved ones. Once it is occupied, an overview genealogical topography of the world is displayed, and a family-specific signal will be emitted within the neighbourhood searching for counterparts, passing on the memorial of their related ancestors.

Li

里弄 Li-Long is the most Traditional Chinese and Shanghaiese

Housing Community found in Old Shanghai District. Houses are alligned on the two sides of the allyways and form lines of regular patterned communual space. As the city develops, high-rises are built on the surrouondings of these communities or simply replace some communities.

Hoping to sustain the communual spirit found in Li, shared spaces are designed as plug-ins to high-rises. It is a sanguine concepts and experimental project that applicable to residential towers.
