furniture design
rodowel stool // 2014
Rodowel stool collection is inspired by geometric design structures of steel rods, wood and dowels. The wooden dowel legs are round on either side and connected to a steel rod frame that gives a soft feel yet solid structure. By combining precise machinery tube-bending processes with reclaimed wood, the chair celebrates no only beauty but character as well. Rodowel is very flexible- it can be used in a range of different settings and the contrast of materials used make it a very versatile choice.
Dimension High stool : 320mm W X 320mm D X 680mm - Seat Height: 700mm Low stool : 320mm W X 480mm D X 420mm - Seat Height: 440mm

Future motor
air-infinite AUTOMOTIVE DESIGN 2013
Climate change and peak oil are driving the fuel costs beyond the ability of most communities to maintain their living standards when mobility is required. The majority of motorcycles in the world use engines smaller than 200cc and are small, agile and simple to maintain. The design challenge is to take one such motorcycle and make its eco-footprint very small and potential to go fast and far, very large. Air-infinite represents how it will influence the world in many different fields including various environmental problems, creating infinite resources and introducing money saving. It’s also a design for many variety types of people including active, artistic and those who love travel.
The bike concept focuses on five main points resplendent, versatility, accessibility, acceleration and innovation. First of all, the naked bike from my point of view is eyecatching- which can show off your style to people. They can see the main engine obviously which is connected to the main frame. Secondly, Airinfinite is designed for functionality and convenience. Everything is easy to use from the touch screen, dashboard, compressed-air display, security and safe controls. Although running by air engine, Air-infinite can reach the high speed that you can reach by driving on the highway. On the other hand, dealing with running out of fuel and increasing price, it is very useful for the future.
