Spark Ling is a wearable learning companion for children. The device weighs 106 grams and has an ABS body, a magnetic case and a neck strap with a safety buckle. A 2.83 inch paper-like screen limits visual strain, while a voice-first interface and two tactile buttons keep the interaction simple. On-device processing recognizes more than 100000 objects and analyzes voice tone locally, which supports privacy. A 1600mAh battery allows up to seven days of standby. Learning is linked to real objects and outdoor exploration.

DB Schenker Upcycling Hub

DB Schenker Upcycling Hub is a lunchroom interior of 400 square metres located in Singapore. The design turns discarded materials into functional features, including a chandelier made of tiles printed from a bespoke filament produced entirely from transparent PET bottles. More than 500 kilograms of single-use plastics were reused in the project. Polystyrene foam from packaging, cardboard from logistic boxes, discarded wooden pallets and recycled rubber flooring were also applied. The aim is to show the potential of upcycling and circular design.
