There has been a sizable market for household designer products as many are seeking to personalize their home, with reference to contemporary aesthetics. As a result, the appearance, as well as the techniques through which homeware is developed is of importance.
Liang-Jung Chen and Shuei-Yuan Yang are two designers whose work effortlessly fits consumer demand in this category. That is, of course, if the individual is looking for a raw and industrial vibe. The duo debuted a collection of household designer goods through a pop-up activation during the 2019 Dutch Design Week. The products presented hardware components that were turned into functional homeware. For example, the collection highlighted a dish rack that was made with bird spikes and a concrete base. Elsewhere, various plugs from bathtubs, sinks, and the like, are repurposed as bottle tops.
