Description(English)	Butterfly-GO, the designer’s inspiration from the butterfly’s wings, integrates the Go pieces and the Go board. Each Go piece is like a butterfly’s wings. The front side of the “wings” is gray, and its color is the same as the Go board. The insides of the two “wings” are white and black, respectively. The Go player turns the piece into a white piece or a black piece by folding the “wings” on one side, thereby began the Go game. The exterior is wrapped and connected by PU material. The board can be folded through the built-in creases to reduce the volume to the original 1/4， The folded board is similar to a magazine in size。
Description(Native)	围棋，流行与东亚的一种策略性两人棋类游戏。传统的围棋由棋子和棋盘组成，棋子分为黑白两色，总共361枚。棋盘尺寸为49cm*46cm。由此可见，传统棋子基数大，总质量重，而且存在丢失的风险。 Butterfly-GO，是设计师从蝴蝶的翅膀上找到的灵感，将棋子和棋盘整合在一起，每个棋子犹如蝴蝶的翅膀，“翅膀”朝上的正面为灰色，颜色和棋盘一样。两个“翅膀”的内侧分别为白色和黑色。下棋者通过翻折一侧的“翅膀”，将棋子变成白子或者黑子，从而形成围棋的对弈。“翅膀”内置磁铁，可以稳固吸附。棋盘采用折叠设计，内置四块相互独立的骨架面板，外部由PU材料包裹连接，可以通过内置的折痕，折叠后将体积变成1/4，尺寸大小与一本杂志相近。这样的设计，大大减少了整套棋具的体积和质量，也不会出现棋子丢失的情况，更方便收纳和携带。这样的设计使得围棋盘减小的同时，1/4的尺寸还可以作为五子棋棋盘，满足不同人群的棋类游戏需求。
