Plastic Recurrence Public Bench

HIR Studio Public Bench Furniture Monday, 6 April 2026

Plastic Recurrence

Plastic Recurrence is a series of public benches made from recycled household plastic waste. The twelve benches were designed for a district town hall in Hong Kong, using plastic collected from the same district. Each bench is assembled from only two module types, repeated in varied lengths and rotations. The rotated modules form curved shapes that recall ripples on a river. Tactile textures and uneven colour make every bench distinct. The curved form gently separates users and lets children sit in free postures.

Bumpy

Bumpy is a glass vase designed to hold flowers and to serve as an interior object. The vase is mouth blown and shaped by hand by glass studio craftsmen in Poland. Rough glass shards are placed on the rim, where they act as ornaments and recall the texture of melting ice. A calm Scandinavian color palette gives the vessel a harmonious character. The simple shape suits a windowsill, a side table or a dining table. Bumpy holds a single flower branch and also looks complete when left empty.

Mob-Clock

Mob is a desk clock formed by a graded Mobius strip mounted on a stand, with a small ball serving as the pointer. Time is a linear concept, yet common clocks repeat two cycles each day, AM and PM. On Mob, the ball moves in one direction along the single boundary of the Mobius strip and passes 24 hours without repetition. The main body is injection molded from PC and ABS, and the legs are made of metal bars. The clock marks time in steps of 15 minutes, without seconds, to support a calm and natural sense of time.
