Zi Studio
Zi Studio is an archive of multi-disciplinary exploration and experimentation by Zijun Zhao(赵梓俊).
Zi Studio explores the shifting relationships between space, objects, and people, tracing how they are formed, disrupted, and reimagined through everyday practices.
Zi Studio understands making as thinking, and design as questioning. Working across furniture, zines, photography, and installations, projects unfold through making, placing, using, and revisiting objects within everyday spaces.

Year: 2023This work emerged during my study of traditional Ming-style furniture making. Through joinery, proportion, and the careful arrangement of wood grain, these objects revealed a distinct rhythm, as if each piece had grown from a single block of wood rather than being assembled. The work reflects a sense of furniture as a unified body, shaped through craft and time. It explores whether wood and furniture can be understood not as static objects, but as forms that carry the logic and imagination of growth.
