Living, like any living things, is a spontaneous process. The Chinese word for nature is Zi Ran, which means that the process happens of itself, not under control of any outside force. Kaidi Mao designed and made the table following this philosophy, without using any nails, screws or glue. Poplar was used as the material, due to the wood's properties, which are lightweight, particular veins and fresh color. The table is modern, steady and durable, but also flat packable, and can be assembled by one person without using any tools and hardwares.

My works are the results of experimentation and understanding. I believe in creativity and genuine emotion above all else, and how it can be translated not only in images, space and objects, but also in the way we interact with them. Right now, my goal is to propose more and exceed more expectations, by creating authentic brands that stands out locally and globally, developing and connecting lasting relationships with us all.
