PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Ziinlife, Founded 2013; Shanghai and five other outlets in China

Handy Capsule, 2020

Trained in Milan as a master furniture designer, Kiran Zhu, founder of the furniture/design/lifestyle enterprise Ziinlife, designed Handy Capsule to encourage good personal health practices. The kit includes a non-reusable mask, hand sanitizer, temperature level sticker labels, and alcohol wipes. The embossed imprints in the soft aluminum case indicate the contents within. Such a kit has become, and will probably continue to be, part of everyone’s pocket and pocketbook contents, as our previous nonchalant attitudes toward public places and spaces has been forever altered.
