2012 KIMU Line Project

KIMU Line Project

Tell the hidden stories, create the hidden possibilities.

LINEs hide in the detail of our daily lives. Secretly, they have linked up every single thing.

2012 LINE x KIMU arouses your imagination and observation to those LINEs you have ignored or took for

granted. Join us to be a detective of your own life. Trace the LINEs to their ends, tell the hidden stories and

create the hidden possibilities.

At the moment of observing and taking note, an invisible LINE has linked our eyes, our hands, to the pens

and ended up at the notes written. The LINE has created the new value of existence for notebook and the

new element for observation in life.

Being the cross of eastern and western world, geographically and culturally, Taiwan is the invisible LINE

connecting the whole world. We inherit the beauty of Chinese tradition and also embrace the innovation of

western evolution. It is the chemistry between the east and the west lights up the path in design.

In the early autumn 2012, at the moment when the flight took off, Taiwan and Helsinki are linked through the

LINE in the sky.

Detective Survival Guide Notebook
偵探守則筆記本 |

We are social creatures who like to observe, we observe others surreptitiously, quietly. Let our

survival books guide you through these peeping memories.

2012 Line Project x KIMU

Tell the hidden stories, create the hidden possibilities.

線段藏在生活細節之中，如同人與人的連結般，物品也與物品之中有著看不見的連結。我們生活在眾多物件中，藉由使用這些生活道具找尋到自我的價值以及對生活的證明。

2012年的柒木設計，試圖找尋這些在物件中的故事，並創造以及連結物品的新價值。

即使我們有了最新的科技，但我們還是保留了傳統筆記。在觀察的瞬間記錄下來，這種從視線到手的動線的連結。或許還會繼續的持續下去吧！偵探守則，我們創造生活中的觀察術。

傳統物件之於燈籠，已經是我們連結文化的一種象徵。台灣屬於一種文化的交集之處，我們承接了傳統中華，也擁抱了西方思維。這種精采的銜接，宛如截斷般的直覺，在東西方交會的瞬間，我們點亮了燈。

線x柒木 在2012裡糾結了很多故事，初秋的航’線’，畫出了台灣與赫爾辛基的連結…
