Shell

A memory capsulating collection inspired by a seaside fishing trip. Each piece merges a recycled natural seashell with 18ct gold. The gold is carved and wrapped around the shell in a design reminiscent of a broken fishing net, in which the shell can be seen to break through the molten gold netting, breaking boundaries between man and nature. The structure of the earrings is formed from shapes of different deep-sea creatures, reflecting the relationship between humans and sea life. Each piece is embellished with ocean-evoking aquamarines and natural diamonds.

Lunar

Lunar is Robert's project for timepiece company ZIIIRO. This watch creates a tie between the design and the nature of the object. If it wasn't a watch that naturally moves sunwise, it wouldn't be possible to read it. The edges of two semi-circles moving in clockwise direction show hours and minutes, they are both leveled at the same height which creates a flat surface. By the interlocking shapes, hands and watch face become one to create a constantly changing graphic.

Jupiter

Inside the Jupiter watch, steel spheres are rolling in hydraulically pressed channels, held in place by magnetic force. The wavelike dial is inset into the convex shaped crystal glass, which prevents the spheres from leaving their paths. A glass dome covering the top watch area transitions into the stainless steel casing seamlessly. With omission of a visible stem, watch hands or markings, there are no elements to distract from the time-telling spheres. Despite the absence of visible watch hands, a conventional quartz movement is being used to drive the planetary time indicator.

Fairies

These earrings are asymmetric, which was inspired by the duality of Day and Night. One earring is depicted in white gold as Fairy of the Day, with diamond flowers and an emerald heart. The other earring, Fairy of the Night, is depicted in black gold, with a ruby heart and diamond stars. The design of the piece was combined with its technical side while maintaining it lightweight. First, a 3D model was created and grown by prototyping on a 3D printer. The cast was made in gold and polished. Then, 403 precious stones were fixed into the base product and the parts were connected.

The Power of Pastry

Designer believe that jewelry should not be limited by precious materials. Finding a way to communicate audience is also a way to represent jewelry. The interactive paper jewelry kits invite audiences to participate in the jewelry making process following the recorded guide video. The kits have different levels from simple paper rings to complex paper brooches. Audiences can try to challenge themselves step to step to feel the magic change from a flat paper to a 3D paper jewelry without glue. It will be a silent but amazing communication between designer and audience.

Desert Desire

There are some characteristics that distinguish these pieces and highlight the influence of graphic design. One is the iconicity of the shapes and the visual effect of three-dimensionality that is achieved, only, through textures and thread patterns. The second is the imperfection of each handmade piece. These geometric shapes assume accuracy but don't have it. Each curve and texture are different. They are imperfect but unique, as in nature, and explore the peculiarity of two worlds – cacti and snakes –making them harmoniously coexist in a system.
