Zense is a transformative table that merges traditional Chinese craftsmanship with contemporary functionality. Its design takes the process of transformation into a ritualistic act, engaging the user's all 5 senses to seamlessly shift between calligraphy surface and tea ceremony platform. The piece is hand-crafted, pursuing unprecedented wood thinness through masterful artisan techniques, relying on traditional wooden joinery techniques alone, without any metal components.

Iterative Studio
Founded by architect and educator Louis Hung Wai Yin, Iterative Studio is a design practice that constructs spatial dialogues where cultural narratives unfold across all scales—from architectural design, interior interventions, installations, furniture, to product design. The research-driven approach of the studio’s award-winning work bridges academia and practice, engaging the spirit, the mind, and the body. At the same time, it serves as a discourse to interrogate how socio-cultural narratives can be reimagined and spatially experienced through material form, with three principles: buildings as cultural palimpsests, objects as memory, and spaces as communal narratives.
