About The Studio

Zhihui Design Studio was established on September 1st, 2024 in Germany by product designer Zhihui Liu. It’s one person studio. This studio contains my previous important works and all my future design works. ZAIYE is also a part of this studio. ZAIYE is a floral lifestyle brand which is all designed and made by this studio.

One of the major works of the studio is LET MET TOUCH YOU. This is my master graduation project. I used a special kind of silicone and soft robotics technology to design a set of products that can touch people. This work received a lot of attention. I was invited by both ambiente talents and ambiente trends to participate in their exhibitions in Frankfurt in January 2024 and was also invited by German Design Graduates to the Dutch Design Week in October of the same year. At the exhibitions I realized that people were interested in the silicone material I was using and saw the potential of touch products. So one year after my graduation I started my own studio and brand zaiye with this silicone material. 

Zhihui Design Studio insists on innovative and original designs. This April I will be participating in Milan Design Week with A Small / Big Soft Place collection. In the meantime I am looking forward to more collaborative opportunities!
