Living Reef

Living Reef Exhibition is an exhibition design project that transforms sustainable research into an engaging public spatial narrative. Through the sequencing of digital modeling, material testing, fabrication processes, and final coral inspired prototypes, the exhibition guides visitors through both process and outcome. Coral inspired DIW 3D printed forms made from circular and low carbon materials shape the spatial identity, demonstrating how exhibition design can communicate ecological restoration, material responsibility, and innovation.

Refill Pod Jar

Trimas

The growing demand for sustainability is driving growth in the refill market, yet many jars lack premium appeal and ease of use. Conventional designs rely on films or liners that are discarded after opening, reducing branding value and requiring two handed operation. A refill pod jar with a flip top lid enables effortless one handed access. The product can be dispensed directly from the top without removing the main cap, and the empty pod can be easily replaced. Tethered caps and fewer components support convenience, branding, compliance, and sustainability.
