concept
Inspired by Asian joinery which was used in timber architecture. By refining Asian elements and combining them with different materials, to emphasise Yin and Yang philosophy. Combined with urgency to state that human beings and the environment cannot be in conflict anymore. Through the development of a smart construction process, each jewellery piece is composed of interchangeable parts which can be repaired or exchanged to follow the latest trends in colour or material, extending the lifespan of each piece.
