Actual Fiction Lab

Actual Fiction Lab is a AI-Native tool for generating near future fiction grounded in real world signals. It transforms emerging trends, weak signals, and policy shifts into fully developed narrative worlds through a guided process that links hypothesis, analysis, worldbuilding, and visualization. Designed for strategists, researchers, and designers, it treats imagination as a method of inquiry, making abstract futures concrete enough to examine implications, test assumptions, and inform decisions in the present.

Actual Future OS

Actual Future OS (AF-OS) is an AI-Native creative system for future narratives and development paths. It integrates foresight signals, concept development, and decision structures into a reusable workflow that helps move from open exploration toward early, actionable direction. The system functions both as an ongoing practice and as a framework intended to be embedded within real projects and team contexts.

Atlas of Everyday Futures

Atlas of Everyday Futures is an ongoing future-oriented initiative exploring how foresight, AI, and design can converge to reimagine the rituals, systems, and aesthetics of future everyday life. The project transforms emerging signals into narrative worlds and design prototypes from future food and intimacy to data materiality, forming a living atlas of speculative futures.

Actual Brief

Actual Brief is an AI powered briefing tool for creative and strategic professionals. Through a conversational interface modeled on how an experienced Creative Director asks questions, it guides users to clarify the real problem, uncover key tensions, and define what success looks like. Instead of relying on static templates or forms, the system uses structured dialogue to transform a vague idea into a concise, actionable creative brief that provides a clear strategic foundation before execution begins.

The Way in Patterns

The Way in Patterns is an immersive digital exhibition by the Palace Museum and Tencent T-Museum that reimagines traditional Chinese cultural heritage through advanced technologies like AR, 3D rendering, and immersive projection. By animating ancient patterns from architecture and artifacts, the exhibition invites visitors to experience the beauty and wisdom of traditional Chinese design in a multi-sensory environment.

Tencent Science and Technology Museum

Tencent Science and Technology Museum is located at Tencent's new headquarter in Shenzhen, providing the public with social and educational facilities that are both innovative and inspiring, while presenting Tencent's technological strength and corporate social responsibility.

Hyper Nature

Hyper Nature is a speculative project commissioned by SPACE10 for Everyday Experiments. It reimagines how technology can connect us with the nature by proposing a MR application that simulates individuals' energy consumption into a virtual ecology that overlays on top of their daily environments. It aims to drive sustainable behavioral changes with ecological thinking, as well as form a circular interrelation between digital and physical worlds and evoke individual's social responsibility.

Crossing Borders

Celebrating its first anniversary at Shanghai TX Huaihai and showcasing brand’s spirit of exploration, Burberry Generation Exhibition brings the wilderness of wheat fields into the heart of the city with naked eye 3D images, interpreting the TB logo from multiple perspectives and creating a dreamlike illusion between reality and fiction.

Econut

Econut speculates about an alternative future in which we thrive in a more-than-human centered co-living ecosystem. It proposes an eco-balancing food and movement to suggest eating invasive species in order to reduce our current food industry's negative impact on biodiversity. From designed objects to imagined lifestyles, it inquiries how we may shift our food habits to better work with ecosystem’s resilience and opens up a novel perspective into humanity in its comprehensive context.

Skin Database

Skin Database speculates on the possibility of DNA-digital data storage on human skin, which inquiries an alternative relationship between the human body and data storage. It aims to open discussion on how fast developing DNA-editing technology such as CRISPR could make an impact on our daily routine and potentially shape new social norms.

Ikebana Chandelier

Ikebana Chandelier is an interactive installation that functions as a lighting piece to celebrate Japanese spirit of “Wabi-sabi” through ‘Ikebana’ and ‘Kumiki’ (wood joinery). The design aims to give rebirth of traditional Japanese culture by integrating technology to create novel experiences for people to learn and play with.

Design Collection

A collection of previous design works including product design, interaction design and speculative design.
