Project/ Handy Cooking
Concept
Whenever you cook, what' s annoying you the most? Trashcan far away, water flowing everywhere, lots of plates occupying the working place? Handy Cooking may help you out! With elegant wooden cutting boards sliding on countertop, you can make dishes on the enlarged working place; a hidden trashcan standing by just under the right side of the sink makes disposing of garbage no longer a thing that bothers; it even drains your leftover! Handy Cooking really makes cooking handy!
10
Throw out garbage without leaking. The side door of the sink is the most important part of HandyCooking because we often make a lot of kitchen waste while cooking. In addition, kitchen waste often contains water. It is annoying to clean the wet trash. This door solves the problem by a declined plane and long drainage holes To clean the garbage on
Open the side door of the sink. Push kitchen waste through the inclined plane of the cutting board onto the door.
the countertop, we just move the cutting board to the place above the side door and then open the side door and put it down. When the waste falls to the plane, water around it will slide down the plane. Finally, you can dump the waste into the trash can by closing the side door.
Water around vegetables will flow down through the slope to the long drainage holes.
Kitchen waste will fall into the trash can beside the door when we close the side door.

Project/ Handy Cooking
These are dual-use cutting boards. Both sides have their own function. These are dual-use cutting boards! You can use the back of it to wash vegetables or fruit above the sink. M oreover, the flowing down of water along the groove protects the countertop from getting wet. If you pull both cutting boards
12
above the sink, you will find that they can cover it. Handy Cooking is not only e legant but also useful for people who are scared of cockroaches!
Easily to clean up
and drain. It is essential to keep the wooden cutting board dry. So I design a concave plane to reduce the weight of it, making it easy to lift the board up. In addition, the cutting board can stand by the track on the countertop when you want to dry it.
13
Project/ Handy Cooking
Slide to stovestop. Generally, there is a long distance between a sink and a stovestop. W h i l e w e a re t r y i n g to move the food from the sink to the s t o v e s t o p, w e o ft e n get the countertop wet. It is a big trouble to clean it all the time.
14
Therefore, I take use of the cutting boards. Let it slide between the sink and the stovestop. By slinding the boards, moving ingredients is no loger a trouble. And the sliding boards even enlarge the workplace!
Detail
I make the cutting boards and the sink all by myself. Every part of it has its own function. Here are the notch, the arc slope, the drainage holes, and the handle.
15
Project/ Handy Cooking
Research
I interviewed some young housewife and obsevated them while they are cooking.Then, I made the conclusin below : 1. Countertop is far away from trashcan. 2. Workplace on the countertop is not enough. 3. Washing vegetables makes the countertop wet easily. 4. Cutting boards have to wash over and over again. 5. Incovenient to move the food between the sink and countertop.

1. Simplfy the process of cooking. 2. Take use of the place above the sink. 3. Solve the problem of throwing the wet waste. 4. Enlarge the workplace of countertop. 5. Move the food easily.
Project/ Handy Cooking
Sketch
The idea originates from the problems of cooking I encountered. Improving the system of countertop is the first step. I think if the cutting board is movable upon the sink and there is a trash can below the countertop, it will simplify the process of cooking!
18
Prototype
I simulate the size of the countertop and make full - scale model by cardboard. And then choose the material for the countertop which is called Melamine Plywood.

I simulate the size of the countertop and make the sink by ABS and PVC pipes.
20
Making the back of the cutting boards. Cutting board is the key part of Handy Cooking. If the size goes wrong, the system will be unable to run. Besides, when processing this wooden board, we must be really careful. I think this step is the most difficult part. To reduce the weight of it, we had to cut of half of
21
it. Afterwards, I made round angles to prevent f o o d f ro m g o i n g t o the corner and I also used sandpaper to grind it. At last, I coated the cutting board with boiling oilto make it waterproof. These steps took one week. It is a real cutting board rather than a model.
Medicine Box With a transparent lid and a spout, the portable medicine box makes taking medicine more convenient and easy. And one will never forget whether he has taken medicine or not. 2013 Product Design
22
Research & Interview Medicine boxes nowadays sometimes are not convenient for some patients. Therefore, I consulted the doctors and nurses from the hospital of NCKU about how patients use medicine boxes and what the inconvience is. After I collected and analysed
the datas, I classified the incovenience into three aspects: 1.The medicine boxes are diffcult to open for some people. 2.It's not easy to take the medicine out of the boxes. 3.The medicine boxes are incovenient to carry.
23
Project/ Medicine Box
Concept
Portable medicine box makes taking medicine more convenient and easier with the transparent lid and the spout. It helps you to remember whether you have taken the medicines or not! And with a set of seven boxes, you can take your medicine orderly for a week!
24
New idea for a medicine box. The medicine box is diffirerent form those in the pharmacy. The only one lid, instead of four we often see on market, is bigger and easier to open. And it also simplfies the process of putting the medicine
Open the transparent box lid to the left and put the medicine for a day into it, in the order of left to right.
Push the button to the right compartment to get the right medicine.
in the box. The spout on the left side makes the pills drop out easily. As for the blue button, it controls which compartment of medicine you are going to get.
Tilt the box and the pills will drop out frrom the spout. We don't have to take them one by one.

Escape Cup A cup coaster which will run away!
2013 Product Design 30
Three kinds of usage
When you try to put the cup on to the coaster, it run away! As you turn the coaster on other side, it stick to the cup! It is a humous design. By using the magnet inside the cup, Escape Cup is not only interesting but also useful! It can also be a lid !
31
Project/ Escape Cup
Sketch Initially, I want to make the cup float. But it is hard to floating stably without any electronic device. Therefore, I came up with the idea using magnets! By using the physical characteristics of magnets, the cup becomes Multifunctional . Moreover, it is very fun just like a toy!
32
Prototype
In order to hide magnets inside the cup and the coaster, I made the cup by PU. First, I milled PU into cup shape, and then put magnets into the bottom of the cup and the coaster. Second, I filled the cup with putty to cover up the magnet. Finally , I spray white and blue painting on it.

Perfumed Cement
Using water-absorbing feature of cement, we drop some perfume into cement and make it into personal fragrant accessories. We name it "perfumed cement." Chaging the huge a n d ro u g h i m a g e o f cement, we make it
light and delicate. Perfumed cement is not only fragrant but also extremely firm! There is no need to worry it may be fragile because it becomes harder with time.
35
Project/ Perfumed Cement
ProductsNecklace, bracelet, earrings Our products include necklaces, bracelets and earrings. The accessories we made are worn at the position like the neck, earback or wrists, the same position we put on perfume. The body heat there helps the fragrance spread in the
36
air. In order to combine the cement with the frangance completely , we make the product smaller and in the floral or geometrical shapes. And most important of all, each product is infused with natural and unique scent.
Accessories with fragance.

Project/ Perfumed Cement
Experiment on delicacy, hardness, tone. In the beginning, we made a series of experiments on cement to understand its characteristics. The first experiment was about the delicacy. It was the key step of our project. Only when we know the delicacy of cement,
40
will we make it into accessories successfully. In second test,we blended water and c e m e n t i n d i ff i r e n t proportion to find the hardest one. In the final test, we added different kind of pigment to see the the color change.
Delicacy experiment
Hardness test We mix water, cement and pigment together in plastic box, and o bserve t h e c h a g e i n d i ff i re n t proportions.
Tone experiment 41
Project/ Perfumed Cement
Style design
After a series of experiments, we started to design the accessories. In fact, it was difficult to design ornaments because we had many technical difficulties with making molds. In the end, we selected some ideas which were more likely to achieve.
42
Production
To create a new shape of cement, we needed to have molds. So we drew drafts on the computers at first. Then we used acrylic laser cutting to make a scale model. After making a successful model, we took it to a silicone mold factory to fill the mold. Next , we infused cement and water into the mold. After waiting for a day, we took it out of the mold and put perfume on it. Finally, we completed "perfumed cement! "

Concept/ Perfumed pot
Cement pot This is a work I made for myself. I like the texture of cement so much that I tried to do it on my own. It was difficult to control the proportion of water and cement.I tried so many times. I also used many kinds of molds
46
t o c r e a t e d i ff e r e n t shapes of pots. F i n a l l y, I m a d e t w o s u c c e s s f u l l y. Th e n I visited several floweshops to find the appropriate plants for my little pots. With the plants, the pots look more beautiful.
This pot has rough texture. It is relly beautiful when it is next to a lamp.
47
Concept/ Blooming
Blooming The Blooming is made on top of a 30*60*60cm box. I used white newsprint and iron wire to create the flower. Newsprint fits the flower a lot because it is thin and it has folds. When the sun shines on it, it looks
48
just like a real flower! Moreover, when the wind comes it will sway and dance beautifully on the green grass. What's more special, it's petals seem to stretch out just like it is blooming. That's why I named it "Blooning."
Blooming on the box.
I placed it at grassland of National Cheng Kung University.

Concept/ Chalk Carving
Chalk Carving It is homework from basic design class. To create sculptures out of four pieces of chalk. The picture on the left side is a theme of vase. Due to the white chalk, dried flowers stand out vividly whithin it. I choosed four objects
- candle, trophy ,spiral hand and make them corresponding to the four colors of dried flowers. Then, t h e p i c t u re s o n t h e right side is another creation. It is about a family. There are a father, a daughter, a pet ,and a mother.
