Out Of Sight

The aim of this project is geared towards the local residents of Friars Island, in Brazil, paying attention to their needs and considering the bucolic environment and lack of public resources, in order to ensure basic services to the citizens. With the support of local political movements, it is proposed the insertion of forty two containers to attend two local necessities: a dance school, which used to operate in adjacent spaces to the neighboring church, and three emergency social housings, keeping in mind the need for a quick and accessible construction inserted on the location.

Rebloom

Taiwan's power distribution components are expensive and require frequent replacement due to environmental factors. reBloom offers a solution by repurposing decommissioned crossarms into durable outdoor frames with minimal processing. The modular design allows for easy adaptation, extension, and part replacement, resulting in maximum component lifespan before recycling. With reBloom, you can reduce waste and save on costs while ensuring reliable and weather-resistant infrastructure.

Photosynthetic City

Photosynthetic City is a project designed to alleviate the burden of fossil energy on the environment. The photosynthetic city consists of two parts. The first part is the solar utility installed on the roof part. The second part is the biomass power generation device, which uses the plant waste planted on the side of the building to provide fuel for the CHP steam turbine power generation device to generate electricity. In this way, the impact on the environment is reduced, and a large number of plantings are also beneficial to the environment.

Moss

The project Moss aims to restore forests that have been ravaged by forest fires through the use of a Moss Stamp and a Moss Incubation Room for cultivating moss. This innovative solution allows individuals, such as volunteers and hikers, to actively engage in environmental conservation efforts by directly participating in the process of planting moss. By simply stamping the moss, participants can contribute to the creation of a sustainable world and help restore the natural ecosystem.

Kuss

Kuss are sound absorption panels designed to bring calmness into homes, open offices and any other public spaces by absorbing the excessive noise. Panels are made out of ecological and non-toxic composite by using organic rich lake sediments, sapropel as a binder, mixed with natural fibres. The extraction of sapropel helps to improve the quality of freshwater resources and lake ecosystems. By using the extracted sapropel in design production, both the noisy city environment and the ecosystem of a lake are improved.

Luf

In order to actively respond to the rural revitalization strategy, on the basis of considering regional and functionality, relevant strategies for the use of loofah materials in the design of seedling trays were proposed. The development model of converting plastic seedling trays from cradle to grave to loofah biodegradable trays from cradle to cradle. Break the loofah and hot-press glutinous rice glue to synthesize new materials. A single person can carry more than five trays. Transplanted into the soil and degraded into nutrients.
