T-7 is one of the school design project that cooperated with the company, Methven. " The longest established, largest supplier and leading designer of showerheads, faucets and hot water valves to home renovators, plumbers and the building industry in New Zealand." 

"At least one experience in the day"      Methven.

T-7 was beginning from this. Since Methven gained a great success in the shower design field, it is time to ask, 

What will be the next experience?

T-7 is a multi-function faucet, which combining normal tap water and optional temperature control boiling water functions. Unlike normal modern kitchen faucet, T-7 is using Ceramic as the material of  the whole body. T-7 is showing warm and soft feeling to every user and creating the best hot drink experience to everyone in the world who enjoy it.

 In many countries and cities, tap water is non-drinkable, T-7 provides two individual two system for daily dish washing and making hot drink. 3 options of different temperature control provide the best water temperature for the specific hot drink  type. 60º c for baby milk, 80º c for tea and 90º c for coffee. (base on research.)

"n" is designed base on the "More is less" idea. 

"Less is more",  Ludwig Mies van der Rohe.

Many designers and architect follow this rule, understanding the essence of the objects, materials, forms. Afterwards, "Reduction" that reduce unnecessary parts. Clean, Simple and Good design. 

"Why such a simple minimal object  makes it a good design?"

I think it is all about "detail". More is less, more?  more details. I believe combination of lots of tiny details, understanding essence of materials, forms, question, solution, the relationship between object and human (or animal, or environment), they form good design with minimal style.

Material         :   Ash wood, steel rod
Method          :   Milling, Banding
Connection   :   Friction

In this mechanical experiment, moving a pin from point A to point B which require 100mm on x axis, 40mm on y axis and 20mm on z axis.Lazy tongs provides a huge range of motion and it is simply driven by gears and motor with slow speed.  Lazy tongs have been applied in different aspect since ancient times. Therefore the design tend to be vintage. Painted MDF laser cut wood box with dark color and scratch. Wooden arm jointed bronze ring nails.

Movement

There are two main gears driving the tongs. Simply connect two ends of the tongs in the asymmetric position on the gears, it creates tilt line movement.

This chaise longue entitled ‘Horn’  is an adaptation of the traditional rocking chair- challenging its comfort and the way it can be used.

The horn enables the user to rock the chair with the lower half of the body. This main feature has been designed to engage the user in multiple ways where they are able to use the horn as a footrest or as a rocking device. The consumer is able to position themselves at either end of the chaise whether it is for relaxation or recreation.

“Voice” is designed to be a cheap and simple one to one voice mail communication device. Family’s members, lover, and friends are separated overseas, Voice provide a straight contact way through the Wi-Fi connection. You do not need to afford the expensive and time limited overseas phone call. 

People may ask that smart phone and computer does the same thing. “Voice” celebrates that everyone deserves long-distance communication without expensive high tech products, for example, child and seniors. Voice mail rather than phone call, users can reply anytime they want to, without the time limitation. 


How does it work? Simply slide to play the message when the message signal light is on. Then slide back to recording mode to do the 3 step recording actions, record, stop and send to reply the message.


Communication is just that simple.

The Loss Table combines principles of scarcity and potential loss to persuade the user to be more organized in their study habits at home. The Loss Table has been arranged specifically to only allow space for what is afforded, while the negative space reminds the user that they could lose their items if they aren’t placed in the right positions, thereby persuading them to keep their desk organized for optimal study time. The use of positive and negative space dictates where specific items required for effective study may or may not be placed, with the risk of losing any items that do not fit.

Loss table: for optimal study time

The loss table is a desk designed to persuade its users to be more organized while studying. Made from sleek ash wood and a handcrafted steel frame, it combines affordance principles with clean aesthetics to produce a visually appealing design. The loss table utilizes study time more effectively, ideal for the user who is semi-organised but needs help differentiating between storage space and workspace. 

Original observations found that students kept their study space more organised at university than at home. This was because the students had a perceived risk of losing their personal items if they were not organised within the busy university environment. Numerous studies have also proven that humans are more motivated by the idea of potential loss than potential gain. Linked closely with scarcity principles, loss language can be used to persuade others in preventing loss, as opposed to securing a reward. The “loss table” combines these principles of scarcity and potential loss to persuade the user to be more organized in their study habits at home. The use of positive and negative space dictates where the objects may or may not be placed, with the risk of losing items that do not fit.

The loss table has been arranged specifically to only allow space for what is afforded, while the negative space reminds the user that they could lose their items if they aren’t placed in the right positions, thereby persuading them to keep their desk organized for optimal study time. Affordance is a type of ‘behaviour steering design’ that lets the user know exactly how to interact with a product. One of the first theorists on affordance was james j. Gibson, who claimed that we observe at the level of mediums, surfaces and substances as opposed to the level of particles and atom. 

The affordances of the table include finger tabs for grip in the laptop space, a sliding piece in the writing space for open books, and elastic to hold loose paper. The assembly of each space has been carefully considered, offering room for a 15” apple macbook pro, a medium sized table lamp, loose sheets of paper, an open textbook and a pen. These are items crucial for optimum organized study and have been decided based on scarcity principles so there is no option for distraction. Each area only allows positive space for the item it is intended to hold, nothing else, so that the opportunity for using unnecessary extra or distracting items is reduced. The negative space of the laptop and lamp pieces and the gradient of the writing space results in the loss of objects that do not belong, again persuading the user to place only the crucial items for studying on the desk.
