Cann Lah Nando's x Noise Singapore: Street Art (2014)

This page: I would like to communicate a familiar object to people in a different way of global thinking and local acting. This artwork called "Cann Lah" which contains Singapore signature food in the timeless design packaging of a famous canned soup. Singaporean always use Singlish "Can" as Yes or Agree which express positive response, therefore, I adapted this word and named a brand to reflect local culture. In my personal opinion of Alive art, an art piece should be developed and created from the master art piece in order to make it more lively, yet locally.

Star Wars (2014)

This page: The lightsaber is the signature weapon of the Jedi order and their Sith counterparts, both of whom can use them for close combat, or to deflect blaster bolts. It to be the most popular weapon in film history. Design concept inspired from The Empire Strikes Back, had blades that were colored either blue (for the Jedi) or red (for the Sith). The swordfighting created a phenomenon lighting movement. It’s a part of Star Wars signatures that people always remember and recognize in this movie.

Textile and color design for furniture (2014)

This page: Indesign 2014 : "Create Your Very Own Chassis" Competition by Wilkhahn Asia Pacific

‘The Eisberg Chassis’ The Saturday Indesign’s theme: Future.

From my perspective - The future is uncertain. Nowadays we are over consuming energy unconsciously till our earth is changing so called “Global warming”.

Scientists have discovered that changes have had major impacts on regional climate and the melting of floating ice should be considered in future assessments of sea level rise.‘

So I would like to design something to hint a user , Eisberge design seat rest and backrest represented melting iceberg and frame represented ocean and sky. It like you sit on this serious crisis . We are unable to wait until no place to sit.

If you care about environment, start looking at your own patterns of consumption and waste. The earth is in your hands, we can achieve a new generation of future environmental protection.

This page : Actual design the used paint and fabric are all made out of 100% recycled and environmentally friendly materials. This makes it in combination with the Green production process of the Chassis chair intoIt sets a new standard towards sustainable furniture without losing the looks of pure and raw materials.
