Production Technology: CNC routed out of sustainable Jarah.

Design Challenge: Attempt to combine traditional Chinese design methodologies with contemporary design practices.
Research: Neo-Sino believes that modern high design is derived almost exclusively from western design influences such as the neo-classism and Bauhaus movements. In addition to this, western influence has instigated much of the socioeconomic development of Asia in the last few centuries, resulting in many Asian designs falling short as poor western imitations.
Inspiration: Emperor is born of the novel Neo-Sino design methodology, coined by the designer Tiger ChongSheng Guo. Neo-Sino aims to reintegrate true Chinese design influence into the societies of high design, whilst remaining respectful of contemporary design methodologies and values.
