About Birdhouse Nest 牙籤盒

《雀巢》係一款專為餐桌設計嘅牙籤盒。個盒造型好似雀仔窩,牙籤圍住一隻小雀仔砌成鳥巢嘅形狀。每次抽出一支牙籤,鳥巢就少咗一部分,呢個過程令人聯想到樹木同雀鳥棲息地嘅流失。呢個設計用咁簡單嘅比喻,提醒大家關注大自然同生態保育。《雀巢》採用環保塑膠製造,經過塑膠加工同組裝而成,尺寸為78 x 78 x 86毫米。

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: Every year, because of the use of herb sticks by users, trees are destroyed and many birds living in the jungle receive a great impact.With the use of herb stickers, there are fewer and fewer herb stickers, as if the metaphor of "fewer and fewer woods", and the residence of birds is becoming more and more exposed and unstable. We hope that we can subconsciously arouse people to protect the "seedlings" of environmental awareness in their hearts.
Dimensions & Packaging: 78mm*78mm*86mm.
Production Technology: Using environmentally friendly plastic processing and assembly that can be explained.
Inspiration: Whenever the user takes the sticks from the box for use, the process of taking them out also becomes the process of "dismantling" the nest of the birds, thus gaining everyone's warning. Through this design, we hope to convey to users that we care about nature and ecology, which means we are also caring about ourselves! While paying attention to human's own desires, we can move forward hand in hand with the surrounding ecology and protect each other.
Project Duration: This project was completed in Zhuhai in March 2023.
Operation Flow: Through the metaphorical design technique, the designer metaphorically turns the herb stick around the bird into the bird's nest, thus constituting a harmonious and warm table landscape.Through this design, we hope to convey to users that we care about nature and ecology, which means we are also caring about ourselves! While focusing on human's own desires, we can move forward hand in hand with the surrounding ecology and protect each other.
