KTK Design Award is a design competition for Chinese youth around the world founded by Mr. Kan Tai-keung, a famous Chinese designer, in 1999. The theme of 2024 competition is TOOL, which discusses the impact of current tools on designers.

"The Crow and the Pitcher" is a well-known fable that tells the story of a crow who is good at thinking, brave to try, and innovatively uses tools when encountering problems, and finally achieves his goal, which is very consistent with the theme of TOOL. I reproduce this thought-provoking fable through physical construction, and transform it into a unique visual language through photography, which should be in terms of materials, gifts, space, installations, etc.

The competition visuals show a strong philosophical, interesting and interactive nature, which has aroused heated discussions in the Chinese design circle and attracted more designers to participate than in previous years.

From another perspective, I used the most primitive tools to complete this design commission, hoping that through this clumsy behavior, everyone will reflect on the current design status.

What kind of contemplation will you have when facing an empty bottle?

The entire design project presents a modern oriental temperament and is also interesting.
