"Blue and white wares” designate white pottery and porcelain decorated under the glaze with a blue pigment, generally cobalt oxide. The decoration is commonly applied by hand, by stencilling or by transfer-printing, though other methods of application have also been used.

The famous ancient Chinese philosopher Chuang-tzu interpreted the concept of “Useless” as in “to deny allocation of an object, hence to give it greater function.” In his perception, the truthful meaning is to pursue the utmost functions/purposes of an object and not to limit itself in one single task. Therefore, to jump out the perception of “function”, and to banish the preconceived of “form”, this could have brought to a higher confines, and would transfer “Useless” becomes “Usefulness”.

Sets of ritual bronzes were produced for an individual to use in ritual offerings of food and drink to his ancestors in family temples or ceremonial halls over tombs, or rather ritual banquets in which both living and dead members of a family participated; early literary records speak of these. On the death of the owner they would be placed in his tomb, so that he could continue to pay his respects in the afterlife; other examples were cast specifically as grave goods.

The project has two goals- first, let other designers or companies know the craftsmen in this bronze village have great skill and production ability. Second, there are about 200 companies in this village doing and selling very similar objects at the moment; to avoid the ruinous competition, we can bring different type of orders to them, then create diversity of business environment. In the aspect of design, this project investigates the material of wax and copper alloy, and dig into every single process with the local craftsmen. In the end we create five objects - lamps (2 types), mirrors (3 sizes), door stops, plates, and the containers.

擷取「洋彩黃錦地八卦交泰轉心瓶」瓶身曲線為茶器外形輪廓，並將腹瓶的如意雲紋與其內鏤雕八卦紋飾，轉化成茶器濾水孔，底部則以不鏽鋼製成球狀，放置欲沖泡之茶葉，當轉動茶器的瞬間，不但能透過鏤空的紋飾濾水孔，靜靜品賞茶葉緩慢而清香的舒展，更能在古典與現代交融的設計中，享受如乾隆皇帝般優雅自得的生活情趣！
