RiutBag R15

RiutBag is the backwards backpack for secure urban travel. RiutBag, pronounced "riot bag", revolves 180 degrees to place all openings safely against your back. Why? With a conventional backpack, the person behind you can access your belongings better than you can. That’s an unnerving design fault in today's densely packed cities, bags full of tech. Now city travellers can go anywhere with peace of mind allowing them to truly adapt to urban life. RiutBag users build the RiutBag of the future because RiutBag design is powered by user thinking, experience and feedback.

Spiral

Spiral Stool is a DIY stool made entirely of CNC-manufactured cardboard that can support approximately 100 kg in weight. Assembly can be finished within 15 minutes without the use of hardware or glue. The high-quality recyclable cardboard creates a beautiful, compact surface for consumers to sit on or, when multiple stools are used as modular units, configure as a low table. When not in use, Spiral Stool can be unfolded, stored, and reused at a later time.

Intelligent Care

Intelligent Care addresses infection control concerns in healthcare water supplies by taking a revolutionary approach to tap and shower design. The range directly addresses many of the challenges of water control in healthcare environments such as waterborne pathogens, cross infection, scalding risk, outlet contamination and rising water costs. Combining leading clinical aesthetics with highly precise control and digital intelligence, the product range fulfills the needs of both professional and patient users and is not only reassuring, friendly and comfortable to use but will also save lives.

Topology

Topology is a series of black & white hand sketches by Huang Zi (the artist) that explores the imaginative topography of various landscapes and people's relationships with them. Because on every inch of every terrain, there is life. It is a diary of sorts to capture the stories of his various travels to faraway places. Documenting journeys through an artistic rendition is a historical way to celebrate the places that others call home. Huang Zi is bringing this art form to the digital age via an online gallery and social media.

The Future of Us

The Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) Advanced Architecture Laboratory (AAL) was commissioned to design this large-scale building envelope for The Future of Us exhibition in late 2014. The visitors of the exhibition experience a stunning play of light and shade cast by an intricate metal lattice, like a ‘walk in an imaginary forest’. It is the capstone event to round up Singapore’s Golden Jubilee (SG50) year of celebrations.
