URBAN CAGE |
As modern life distances itself from the natural environment and gradually merges closer with technology, electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets find ways to accompany us for up-to 24 hours – like a form of an intimate partner or a family pet. As a response to this social phenomenon, taiwanese industrial designer Yi-Ting Chen created a series of smartphone and tablet docks that take form as a minimal bird cage. Built using steel and a selection of hardwood, ‘ URBANCAGE’ also serves as portable speaker that according to chen, ‘mimics the elegant movements and the sound of birds, a symbol that highlights the status of fine cage breeders.’ The delicate docks also feature bluetooth connectivity, allowing users to connect to the speaker system when not in use. Designed by Yi-Ting Chen, the awesome ideas coming with photographer Chang Chieh developing modern twist and bringing bird cage live in a stylish structure by recreating as the innovation and creativity. The ultimate 'urban' term is also pointing to the end use products - Apple's iPad and iPhone, which there's no other such cages on the market before. |
