Pop Star

Pop Star is based on the geometric shape of the icosahedron. Through the deconstruction of space and the reconstruction of form, the artist finally constructed this 'monster' with a huge volume that exceeds the human visual reading scale, like an alien object flying in from another dimension of time and space. Viewers could feel the association between the Pop Star and transcendental theory that Ralph Waldo Emerson said: The world globes itself in a drop of dew, while the artist enlarges a tiny compound eye into a behemoth.

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.

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.

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.

Aqua Scape the Orangery Version

This is the second version of Aqua scape. The first-version had completed as the first prototype of Whole Plastic Architecture. Aqua scape was a soft and boneless architecture.

Wind Crystals

At the invitation of government, doTa designed this installation artwork using salt crystals presenting the culture of Budai County, Taiwan. The mahogany wood is used to create a tapered frame that connects the crystallized salt to form a truss structure that can be extended freely. When the sea breeze blows, it rotates according to the wind direction and strength of the wind, chasing the light and the shadow, and the sound of BuDai County.
