A bamboo art installation “THE POT: A SIP-ability Design for HK Household” by a group of Product Design graduates is now on show at “Embracing the Bamboo” Outdoor Art Exhibition held by Construction Industry Council Zero Carbon Park (8 Sheung Yuet Road, Kowloon Bay) until 30 June 2023.
Designed by Lee Wing Ki Angel, Chong Nga Ching, Lui Mei Yee, See Jun Hong Bob, “THE POT: A SIP-ability Design for HK Household” is a set of household furniture that caters for the habit of Hong Kong residents living in small space. The case study informs us of two design insights- appreciating the creative use of vertical space and gap in the high-density living environment and maintaining quality life in chaos and order. “Sip-la” (placing objects into the gaps) is a practice of home stuff’s management commonly shared by Hong Kong households living under limited space. Endowing non-frequently used items a temporary identity brings visual and mental comfort yet not feasible in the long run. “THE POT: A SIP-ability Design for HK Household” explores the issues roused by space-sharing inside “home” from a human-centred perspective.
Welcome to see the work and other amazing bamboo projects at the Exhibition.
