UNION / urban folding bike

在全球暖化日趨嚴重的情況下,在都市使用腳踏車通勤的狀況將普及化,”UNION”是一台全新設計的八吋摺疊腳踏車,將折疊車的機構都藏進車殼當中,在通勤的時候便可將車折起拖行轉搭大眾交通工具,另外我們將車燈結合龍頭一併設計,以及將警示燈結合進椅座當中,增加了夜間時的行車安全。Nowadays, the issue of global warming becomes more serious, the urban commuter will go work by bike with MRT or bus more often. "UNION" is a brand-new design of an 8-inch folding bicycle. We hide all the engineering constructions inside, that will be useful when you folding up and dragging “UNION” to enter the MRT or bus. In addition, our design to combine the stem with the headlight and the saddle with taillight that will let nighttime cycling become safer.


Design Issue1. 大多數折疊車在騎乘時會有車身扭曲的問題,因此在車體上必須一體成形。2. 收納之後以比較省力的方式「推」或「拉」腳踏車,而非用手提的費力方式作移動。3. 摺疊之後方便攜帶上大眾交通工具。4. 為了要配合其它大眾運出系統,因此必須折疊容易且快速。5. 晚上下班時通勤族需要車燈或反光板的裝置已達到騎乘時的安全1. Most folding bicycles has distorting problems while riding, so the framework of the bike must be integrated.2. After folding the bike, we “pull” or “drag” the bike instead of hand-carry it.3. Easy to carry on to the public transportation after folding.4. The process of folding should be easy and quick.The brake light and reflect light have reached the standard of safety.


目前台北市等大城市的捷運系統規定,乘客搭乘捷運時若攜帶摺疊腳踏車,必須要以「車袋」將腳踏車收起,若無使用車袋包覆,則不能搭乘捷運系統,因為腳踏車的複雜結構或是齒盤等尖銳的零件,可能會危害其他乘客的安全,若是人潮擁擠時更容易發生危險,為了解決這個問題,在UNION的設計中,在左右加上了兩片側板,不只讓腳踏車收納或騎乘時更美觀,再轉乘捷運系統時也不需要收納至車袋當中就能乘坐捷運,省去攜帶車袋的麻煩,也更能增加乘客的安全。At present, MRT regulate that passengers who want to take bike with them should put their bike into the “bike bag”, because the sharpness of component of bike might hurt people. Owing to solve the problem, UNION puts on two side boards, not only to make the bike look good but also save the strength to put the bike into the bag while protect other passers.

ONE SIDE / backpack design for elder






There is no such net-collecting bag outside that people don’t have to keep worrying about things being stolen when they are carrying the back-bag, but there is a cell-phone bag and another bag on suspenders embedded for them to handle things like cameras, purses, or keys easily.

This backpack only has one side strap, but it still carry by two side straps. Right strap use Velcro to change tide or loose, and another side use automatic retrieved belt and buckle just like seat belt. When you get right side to your shoulder, you don’t need to find another side on your back that might cause some injury on our arm, just pull the retrieved belt to buckle up. There is a flexible mechanism inside this buckle-design in which when we want to take off the back-bag, we only have to release the buckle, the upper part of the belt will setback automatically.

There are many big and small mesh bags inside, each bag stitched with Velcro rug can stuck to the short velvet-like lining in back of it, which is again as well-designed as to locate and categorize your things.

Design with Margaret.

STANDER / redesign umbrella

是否曾經因為下雨天放在室外怕傘被偷,拿進去屋內會造成室內瀰漫著雨天霉氣的味道,也找不到地方放置並且不弄濕地板?STANDER能夠輕鬆的自行站立於地板,並且傘面的雨水順著傘面滑下後,在傘頭裡裝著的是水溶性的芳香劑,讓下雨天屋內不再瀰漫難受的霉味,裡頭的芳香劑可用硬幣輕鬆的將傘頭蓋打開隨時更換.

Have you ever been afraid of your umbrella would be stolen outside of the room but just can’t find place to hang it? Have you ever smelt bad after raining day? “STANDER” is a revolutionary umbrella that it can stand without other brace and there is water-soluble aromatic inside of the top.

So long as find a wall that may hang up clothes which must air-dry at will in the moist environment.
Do not worry about any space for clothes hangers indoors.
As long as link each hanger, it will take effect in every nook and corner in the house....
