Spindle is a floor lamp that can be shifted by moving the slider to create a variety of light forms. The 3D twist of the strip creates a graceful curve, allowing the light to wrap around the stem like a spinning yarn, with a strong sense of freedom and tension in its natural shape.
As a derivative of Spindle, Circ-spindle changes the light effect by moving the slider to rotate the light plate.

Sound from Earth is an installation that amplifies low frequency sounds in the environment. The whole device contains no electronic components, but only affects the transmission of sound through the combination of geometric shapes. Thus filtering out high frequency sounds and amplifying low frequency sounds.
Through it, you can feel the vibration of the sky before thunder, or hear the very low part of natural sounds such as wind or waves. It allows everyone to connect with the 'invisible nature' of the present moment.
