Kwok Pan's work is an exploration of forms in various degrees. It is striving towards an equilibrium between the properties of material and structural integrity in relation to human perceptions and functions. As such, his design processes ranges widely from building and experimenting with actual materials, referencing, juxtaposing and challenging typologies, to observing human behavior. It is by treading on these boundaries with failures in between that his designs are born.
