Check-in Hsinchu

The Design Expo is an annual design event promoted by the Central government of Taiwan. It aims to bring new energy to the local design sector. In 2020, Hsinchu hosted it, i.e., a city that holds a vibrant Science Park and more than 300 years of history. In this context, BIAS transformed the Expo into an urban event. Instead of triggering a single exhibition, this choice brought to temporarily re-imagine a line of places across the city.

Daxi Daxi

Since 2018, BIAS has developed and implemented an urban festival to help Daxi township preparing for the key religious ceremony of the place.

To share the charm of folk beliefs with the urban public, BIAS mediated the traditions by a strategic set of design interventions and activities that provide a pop-culture vibe to the event. In particular, BIAS acted as curator and invited various young artists and designers to cooperate with those that preserve old traditions.

Inside the hall, a 300 square metre multifunctional space hosts fashion shows, seminars and informal meetings. Metal frames with die cut patterns, backlit coloured panels and neon style signs shape the vibrant look.

Cultural Wars Against Poland

Cultural Wars Against Poland is a popular science historical book series published by the National Centre for Culture in Poland. The series covers the period from the end of the 17th century to the first half of the 20th century. A very rough cover paper strengthens the message of war, roughness and destruction. A torn page motif on the covers is formed by blind stamping. The interior is printed in two colours, black and intense red, with the red accents referring to the colours of the Polish flag. Otabind binding lets each volume open flat for easier reading.
