Something Concrete: Clock
(2020-2021)
clock concrete material product design
Recommend the theory - material agency; I build up a theoretical framework that connects the physical environment and my mindset as a designer. I created a clock that aesthetically mirrors Taipei City and contains synthetically emotional concrete, which I collected locally in where I am now - Den Haag.

What's the Relationship?

This diagram shows the active connection from the physical elements to the designer’s ability and creation. On the one way, the material collective becomes the landscape, which influences the designer who lives in that area. In my assumption, apparently, material drives the designer to use them in a certain way. Whether it is choosing the material in the first place or imitating the impression they have in their mind, all these reactions are likely the material’s agency’s results.

Meanwhile, from the other way around, the environment passively does something to display its existence. The outputs of their “act” come out through the designers, partially included back to the environment. It is an endless cycle that shows an invisible contact beyond the physical world and an individual’s contribution.
