The “TAIWAN DESIGN POWER” Taiwan Pavilion, showcased at the Busan Design Festival
in South Korea, brings together 25 design projects and 20 industry representatives,
demonstrating Taiwan’s diverse design capabilities—from public service innovation
and everyday-life solutions to brand development and market-driven design.

**From Places to Experiences: Design Driving Public Service Innovation**

The exhibition features public design initiatives including the **Taipei Main Station
MRT Redesign**, the **Taiwan Public Pictogram System**, and the **Design Movement
on Campus**. These projects reflect TDRI’s long-term efforts to integrate design
into public governance through cross-sector collaboration, creating more user-friendly,
inclusive, and efficient public service environments.

**From Needs to Solutions: Innovative Designs Inspired by Everyday Needs**

Highlights include **minica e-cargo bike**, developed by GWA Energy, INC., a smart
mobility solution designed for family transportation with enhanced safety, convenience,
and cargo capacity; the **Momax PinBuzz Rechargeable Anti-Theft Personal Alarm With
Find My Locator**, an Apple-certified device featuring a 100dB alarm, anti-theft
vibration alerts, waterproof functionality, and built-in lighting; and the **H h
L Master Bowl** **| Dual-Layer Ant-Proof Pet Bowl**, showcasing how design can transform
everyday observations into practical solutions.

**From Design to Market: From Cultural Creativity to Global Markets**

The exhibition also showcases Taiwan brands successfully expanding internationally
through cultural creativity, sustainability, and cross-disciplinary collaboration.
Featured works include **FILTER017®**, which has entered overseas markets such as
Japan and Hong Kong through international collaborations, cultural projects, and
brand curation; and **OR｜Persimmon Story – Persimmon-Shaped Lotos Silt & Areca 
Charcoal Aroma Stone** by Grand Vision Co., Ltd., which combines reservoir sediment
recycling technology, agricultural waste reutilization, and traditional Taiwanese
persimmon dyeing techniques, highlighting Taiwan’s innovative approach to sustainable
and culturally driven design.

In addition, the pavilion itself embodies circular design principles, utilizing 
a honeycomb paper system developed by Taiwanese brand **The Young Square**. The 
reusable and recyclable structure demonstrates Taiwan’s innovation in sustainable
materials and exhibition design.

**Student Design Showcase: Emerging Taiwanese Talent Takes the International Stage**

In addition to professional design projects and industry collaborations, the Taiwan
Pavilion also featured a dedicated Student Design Showcase. Curated by TDRI, the
section presented nine outstanding works created by six Young Pin Design Award teams
from four leading Taiwanese universities, including Ming Chi University of Technology,
National Cheng Kung University, Fu Jen Catholic University, and National Taiwan 
University of Arts.

A total of 13 students traveled to Busan to participate in the exhibition, opening
ceremony, and Taiwan–Korea student networking events. The showcase highlighted the
creativity, innovation, and international potential of Taiwan’s next generation 
of designers. The student works attracted considerable attention from local media
and visitors, while the enthusiastic participation and vibrant atmosphere throughout
the exchange activities injected new momentum into Taiwan–Korea design collaboration.

**TDRI President Highlights Taiwan’s Design-Driven Innovation at BUSAN GLOBAL DESIGN
SEMINAR 2026**

Among the highlights, Busan Global Design Seminar 2026, the international forum 
of the **2026 Busan Design Festival**, was held on June 11, bringing together leading
representatives from Taiwan, Korea, and the global design community to discuss how
design can respond to contemporary social and everyday-life challenges. **Chi-Yi
Chang**, President of the **Taiwan Design Research Institute (TDRI)**, was invited

titled **"Design to Everyday Life."** In his talk, he shared how Taiwan leverages
design in public services, urban governance, and daily life to create social value
