Design as Gateway to Material Understanding
Wood, metal, water, chitin; Bits, codes, fonts, and color, all are materials. While materials have their secret way of organization, Design is to transform knowledge obtained from biologists, physicians, and artists. The designer interprets them, and provide guidelines for their adaptations.
Functional morphology project produces a parametric design system established based on observations on micro and macro scales of insect wings. We develop a strategy that can be applied to 3d-printed macrostructures and achieve a similar water-repelling effect.

The Reflectionon of the Body
Designers are reflectors. Design is about identifying conflicts from within, reorganizing them, and resolving them. We sometimes deal with a single existing body, sometimes a cluster of them, or not at all.
Talk to the computer and the root of human poetic intention may just be revealed. Reread is an Algristehm inspired by David Jhave Johnston’s works, designed to generate graphics based on the training model of emotional scores of poems.

Products, Arts, Tools
In most cases, Ideas condense down into the form of an object. Sometimes pieces of arts, sometimes these rules and protocols known as products. Any specified relationship between two or more participants can be materialized into an object, regardless of being categorized as art, product, or tool, just like every existing object has a specific mission in the world.
