We’ve written about industrial designer and researcher Cui Zhihua before. Lately Cui’s Instagram has been populated with new experiments he’s been doing with what we think is PVC and a heat gun.
Here’s what he landed on–he appears to be working out a low-tech connector for dowels. The only text description is “Industrial craft – connectors.”
Listen beautiful relax classics on our Youtube channel.
Cui was invited to present the work at this year’s Paris Design Week, but I can find no press covering these connectors (at least, searching in English I can’t).
I’m very curious to see where this could go. Cui, if you’re reading this: Please send us a description of this project and your goals!
