The Niall

The Niall is a cognac glass designed to improve nosing and tasting. The glass is made of soda-lime glass, a material that absorbs ethanol vapour from the liquid. A conical depression at the base, named the Vortex Point, controls the flow of the poured spirit and creates a swirl. The bulb curves in and out to slow the rising vapour, giving the glass walls more time to absorb it. A thick base and an elevated stem allow a comfortable grip without warming the drink. Reduced ethanol vapour lets the drinker sense more of the aroma and flavour.

Shanyue Outdoor

Shanyue Outdoor is a pair of trail running shoes designed for children aged seven to fourteen. The upper uses a water-resistant fabric that blocks rain and mud and allows a wading depth of up to 8.5 centimeters. The lining is a waterproof membrane with a microporous structure, so air passes through and feet stay dry. The midsole uses lightweight foam for cushioning. A heel stabilizer and an anti-slip rubber outsole support stable movement on rough ground. A lace-control knob makes the shoes easy to put on and take off.

Silver Wings

Silver Wings is a desk lamp designed to protect the eyes of children. A curved light source 63 centimetres long illuminates a desk width of 1.6 metres, reducing differences in brightness across the surface. Two light wings can be folded downwards so that the light beams overlap, which reduces hand shadows during writing. A micro-surface diffusion panel spreads the light in several directions for even illumination. A knob and a screen control the brightness, the colour temperature and the timer functions.

Feiyu Technology 3Plus

Feiyu Technology 3Plus is a school backpack designed to support the spinal health of children. The backpack combines a patented dual helical spring structure with a three-dimensional load distribution system across nine points. The springs convert gravitational energy into elastic energy during movement, which reduces the felt weight and eases strain on the shoulders and spine. A wraparound system inspired by the fins of flying fish improves comfort. A reflective strip aids visibility at night, and a window at the spring structure allows the load to be checked.
