yung ho chang of atelier FCJZ: hulu serveware
'hulu serveware' by yung ho chang of atelier FCJZ

beijing- based architect yung ho chang of atelier FCJZ has created 'HULU serveware', a porcelain tableware and utensil
collection derived from the past use of dried 'hulu' gourds to scoop water and wash rice in northern china. traditionally viewed
as an essential family belonging, the set intends to maintain the sense of connection created by dried gourds between everyone
at the dinner table while symbolizing harmony. the formally organic set breaks the established '6 plate' rule offering a creative
arrangement to display food in diverse ways.

for the first annual beijing design week and beijing international design triennial. exhibitions, conferences, workshops
and lectures across the city address the theme of 'design beijing - good design' for the nine-day event,

education, the china federation of literary and art circles,
and the municipal government of beijing, in collaboration this year with tsinghua university.
