In the project of Vanke Joy Hill, Mdo wants to create a ceremonial community lounge that can trigger emotional resonance. This work is inspired by Dongguan's urban symbols. The hanging installation is inspired by the undulating silhouette of the roof of the Wok Ear House. Using bamboo as raw material. Based on the local intangible cultural heritage, Knitting Technique of Dongguan's Straw, the bamboo strips are rearranged, combined, and intertwined to form a rhythmic movement from the simple to the complex and manifest a uniquely artistic atmosphere in the space.
