Hibu

Hibu is paired to a mobile phone via Bluetooth and connects with an app, the phone provides a communication link to dedicated services when Hibu is triggered. Hibu allows a button to be greatly reduced in size, increased in reliability and longevity, and placed in more relevant locations as a wearable. Its minimal size and simple shape is visually acceptable to domestic and professional uses allowing for easy expansion and growth into various markets by simply modifying the dynamics of the app.

Pin

It all started with a simple game in a creativity class and the topic which was "clock", emerged haphazardly. Thus, various wall clocks as well as a number of researches based on digital and analogue clocks have been reviewed. The initial idea has been started by the least significant area of clocks which is the pin on which the clocks are usually hanging. This type of clock includes a cylindrical pole on which three projectors are installed. These projectors render the three existing handles identical to those of the ordinary analogue clocks. However, they also project numbers.

CORAL

Coral flower vase is a 3d printed test tube flower vase which hosts dynamic and spatial floral arrangements. The vase has a minimal structural setting to provide a platform for various designs for floral designers to create their artwork and displays. Coral consists of 8 individual branches which each holds a glass tube housing water which can be easily removed and refilled without having to move the vase itself. The sculptural form, along with diverse floral arrangement schemes, changes the atmosphere with unique styles and fills the space up with life and refreshment.

Blade

What is Blade? From a pure solution view point it’s a MHL-powered dongle with an embedded user interface that creates a streaming video/audio experience on a big screen TV. Blade combines user experience with low cost and high aesthetics. Visually Blade keys off these elements: a solid base that is weighted and provides a heft that gives comfort that the device won’t tip, a historical reference to English bone china that creates a visually appealing and translucence in the white plastic of the device body.
