IScreen
Design by Li-Rong Liao Nov., 2008
IScreen is a modular screen unit with laser cut patterns from the arrangement of characters- ‘LISA’ and enables users to assemble and arrange.
Laser cut plywood and Masonite adds more color and interest to the character of the screen.
As a modular unit, the screen can be disassembled and packed in smaller spaces.
In the future, users can go on line and order customized screen with unique graphics made from their desired characters.
