English: A Harmonious Family Cultivates Prosperity.
Chinese: 家和萬事興
In Chinese culture, family holds immense significance. Influenced by my Chaoshan family background and the clash between traditional views and modern education, I grapple with contradictions in family roles and societal expectations of men and women.
To address familial conflicts, I conceived an interactive chair design project. Participants manipulate six boards representing family responsibilities to create the seat surface, expressing the comfort of a balanced family. Adjustments symbolize ongoing family consultation.
Gender issues stem from societal expectations, leading to a loss of inner freedom. Advocating for alignment with inner convictions, open communication, and authenticity, we designed a chair to facilitate family dialogue, encourage members to confront their true thoughts and ideas, and promote equality, active listening and negotiation.
