Qhov Tsim

Txog Upcycled Echo Lub Suab Nrov Av Ci

Upcycled Echo yog ib pawg lub suab nrov ntse (smart speaker) uas ua los ntawm cov duab lo av ci (ceramic decals) uas muab pov tseg lawm. Nyob rau hauv Jingdezhen, txhua xyoo muaj kwv yees li 5 feem pua ntawm cov duab lo av ci raug muab pov tseg. Cov duab lo uas rov qab khaws tau no raug muab txiav, muab rov sib xyaw thiab muab lo rau saum cov plhaub av ci (porcelain) uas ruaj khov, ces mam li muab hlawv kom raug siab heev los tiv thaiv daim npoo. Cov twj suab high-fidelity uas ntsia rau hauv pab muab suab nrov sib npaug zoo, thiab lub suab nrov no txuas tau rau xov tooj ntse (smartphone) los tso suab paj nruag thiab sib tham nrog lub suab hais lus. Qhov kev tsim no txo tau cov khib nyiab ntawm kev lag luam thiab muab kev coj noj coj ua ntawm av ci los txuas nrog thev naus laus zis suab niaj hnub no.

Yam Tshwj Xeeb: This design transforms discarded ceramic decals into handcrafted HiFi ceramic speakers through artistic collage. By upcycling industrial waste, it reduces environmental impact while creating unique surfaces and strong cultural identity. Integrating durable ceramic craftsmanship with modern acoustic technology, it delivers high-quality sound and meaningful sustainable value.
Qhov Loj & Ntim: 50 x 50 mm x 60 mm
Cov Ntsiab Lus: Ceramic Speakers, Smart Audio, HiFi Sound, Upcycled Materials, Sustainability, Jingdezhen Ceramic, Handcrafted Collage, Cultural Heritage, Interactive Design, Eco-friendly Design
Thev Naus Laus Zis Tsim Khoom: The speakers are handcrafted from reclaimed ceramic decals, which are cut, recombined, and collaged onto durable porcelain shells. High-precision ceramic firing ensures surface integrity, while integrated HiFi components provide balanced acoustic performance. The process merges traditional ceramic craftsmanship with modern audio engineering, enabling compact, ergonomic, and visually unique speakers that combine sustainability, aesthetics, and functionality.
Kev Sib Tw Tsim Qauv: The main challenge was transforming discarded ceramic decals into functional, aesthetic HiFi speakers. Internally, we balanced tradition, cultural motifs, and modern design. Externally, constraints included industrial waste quality, material durability, and integrating audio technology. Overcoming these required iterative prototyping, precise collage techniques, and collaboration with local artisans to merge craftsmanship, sustainability, and high-quality sound.
Kev Tshawb Fawb: This design research is a sustainability-driven, applied study aiming to reduce ceramic decal waste and explore cultural innovation. Using field surveys, interviews with Jingdezhen artisans, and analysis of industrial waste data, we identified that about 5% of decals are discarded annually. Experiments with collage techniques and prototype speakers demonstrated functional, artistic upcycling. The insights show that combining tradition with modern technology can create socially and environmentally responsible products, impacting design, culture, and sustainable business practices.
Kev Txhawb Siab: Inspired by Jingdezhen’s ceramic industry, where about 5% of decals are discarded annually, this project transforms waste into artistic HiFi speakers. Recombining and handcrafting motifs merges traditional ceramic heritage with modern design, promoting sustainability, cultural preservation, and playful, meaningful interaction.
Lub Sij Hawm Ua Hauj Lwm: The project started in April 2025 in Jingdezhen and finished in September 2025 in Jingdezhen.
Txheej Txheem Ua Hauj Lwm: This is a series of ceramic smart speakers that connect to smartphones, delivering high-fidelity (HiFi) music playback and voice interaction, providing users with a versatile audio experience.
