Layer 3
Emotional, Existential, and Aspirational

The work suggests “home” as a growing organism; every piece planted and nurtured becomes part of a living ecosystem of belonging.

“Home Ecology - The Philo Modular System” is an inquiry into adaptive living, emanating from a simple question: If furniture could adapt to movement and spatial change, shouldn’t its shape be defined by the user?

This collection of precision-crafted aluminium components establishes a universal furniture language, designed in response to the spatial constraints of dense urban life. The modules empower users to master their own space, freely assembling them into stools, tables, or bookshelves. In doing so, the home becomes a fluid ecosystem that evolves with the rhythm of daily life.

Grounded in a shared design principle, the system creates a common vernacular for home furnishing, paving the way for a new culture of interaction. Users can share, trade, and expand their collections—fostering community while embracing a sustainable, flexible future.

Renee Neoh, an art furniture designer and sculptor whose creative path began with photography and abstract set design. She is a graduate of Central Saint Martins, London and has developed a distinct hallmark that merges sculpture and furniture into a single language. Working with the tactile qualities of materials and intuitive hand experimentation, she transforms functional objects into pieces that move beyond conventional frameworks while retaining strong aesthetic presence. For Renee, art should not be distant or confined to institutions—it should be part of everyday life: tangible, approachable, and woven into the spaces we inhabit. Her creations explore how functionality and sculptural presence can coexist, reimagining beauty from a fleeting sight into a companion through daily living.

Samuel Choi, a Hong Kong-based art furniture designer and sculptor. His early practice spanned art props and multimedia visual production before evolving into furniture and sculpture. His work explores structure and form, seeking moments of tension and harmony through material experimentation. By reimagining the relationship between objects and space, Samuel creates designs that transcend utility, intertwining functionality with sculptural expression. Each piece invites users to sense art not as remote or untouchable, but as part of lived experience—expanding the possibilities of how furniture can embody both purpose and poetry.
