Description(English)	Benboo is an exquisite collection of lamps that blends elegance and resilience, inspired by the beauty of bamboo. Each lamp is meticulously crafted from copper tubing, showcasing its innate qualities and fine craftsmanship. Advanced laser cutting shapes the tubes into dynamic forms, celebrating their flexibility and strength. The handcrafted patina resembles the bamboo cortex, allowing soft light to filter through translucent beads, evoking sunlight through bamboo fibers. The name "Benboo," a fusion of "bend" and "bamboo," encapsulates the perfect harmony of function and artistic design in this captivating series.
Description(Native)	在中華文化中，竹象征著優雅、堅韌、純潔，以及力量與優雅之間的和諧平衡。 柔竹燈 Benboo是一系列由切割和彎曲銅管製成的三盞燈具。每件作品均由單根銅管精製，展現了材質本身的特性以及精湛的工藝。管狀雷射切割技術允許精確切割，保留細小的連接點，在維持管狀結構完整性的同時，又能實現複雜的造型。這種金屬延展性的運用，將筆直的銅管彎曲成為充滿活力的形態，如同竹子般自然優雅，兼具柔韌與堅固。燈具外層的手工氧化處理，模仿了竹子的表皮，而柔和的光線則透過半透明的珠子散發出來，彷彿陽光穿透竹纖維般溫暖。 此系列呈現了多種造型，皆源自同一種銅管，探索了切割彎折技法在設計上的可能性。「Benboo」這個名稱，融合了「彎曲 (bend)」和「竹子 (bamboo)」，體現了功能與形式的和諧統一。
