We had the distinct pleasure to interview award winning designer Oi Lin Irene Yeung about their original and creative Flask design work. Oi Lin Irene Yeung is an award-winning industrial designer, that makes our world a better place with their original flask works.
Oi Lin Irene Yeung ("OLIY") answered Design Interview ("DI") questions about their award-winning work Fragment Flask. Interview questions prepared by Frank Scott.
OLIY : Fragment is the main idea of flask design. Life is full of many different kind of feelings, especially when we travel and have alcohols.
OLIY : I designed this flask set for our company, Derangedsign Co.
OLIY : This flask set is produced by our partner, TK, which is an experienced metalworking manufacturer based in Hong Kong and have a factory in Guangdong, China. TK is our sole and appointed supplier of metalware.
OLIY : Life is full of many elements like feelings, memories, families & friends, etc. All these are the fragments of our lives.
OLIY : Laser welding is crucial for this design. It's always hard to turn crazy ideas to be the real metalware. Upon the advanced technology in metalworking, I can think out of the box and my supplier can help to realize my dreams always.
OLIY : The creativity is totally beyond the production possibilities. Abnormal and polygonal design of flasks requires special metalworking techniques that the defective rate is high.
OLIY : During my first attendance to the Ambiente Frankfurt 2020, I was totally impressed by everything at the show. I was interested to be one of the role-player in the international fair and design competition. Also, great encouragement from Hong Kong Trade Development Council really made me to step forward and joined A'design Award.
