View Larger Image and Additional Photos of UntoAbout Unto : “Unto” is a designer duo of Ching Yi Chang and Ming Hsi Chou, collaborating since 2014, and have developed a coherent body of work characterized by drawing a close lens on nature, using the significance of objects as cultural conduits, and reintroducing things in a way that we often would otherwise oversee. Perceiving their role as a bridge between craft, industry, object, and user, Unto aims to rebuild our relationship with the everyday objects with a fresh mind and intentions to bring new dialogues and perspectives unto this rapidly changing world.
We perceive our role as bridges that connects different fields and perspectives, linking between crafts, industry, objects, users, between people and the nature we live in including the historical, political and social forces that have shaped our environment. Therefore, design is finding what seems to one as an appropriate relationship and realizing that in a beautiful manner.
