Lufdesign (Tsunho Wang, President) is pleased to announce that the 'Leaf Tie' is the recipient of a 2010 Design for Asia (DFA) Silver Award.
The DFA Awards are organized by the Hong Kong Design Centre with the purpose of raising awareness amongst businesses and the public about the value of good design as an essential component in business success, as well as for a sustainable, higher quality of life for all. This year’s winners were selected from approximately 400 commercial products released in one or more Asian markets by manufacturers from the world over during a period of roughly two years and seven months—from January 1, 2008 to July 31, 2010. From these, winners were selected based on superiority of design, degree of impact on the Asian lifestyle, and commercial success.
As one of the winners for the DFA Award 2010, Leaf Tie has exhibited at the HKTDC Inno Design Tech (IDT) Expo in Honk Kong on 2 – 4 December 2010.

Leaf Tie
The artificial cables all around us create a more dark and cold environment. The Leaf tie takes the cables and wraps the cables while bringing life to a dull area. It serves the dual purpose of design and efficiency. 
The Leaf tie is easy to use. It is simply used in the same manner as the cable-tie. All you have to do is wrap the Leaf Tie around the loose cables. The design of the Leaf tie makes the cables look like wrapped twigs. For young children or people that live in the city that tire from the artificially modern environment, the Leaf tie can for a short while let them experience a hint of nature.
The profits made from this product are used to benefit causes for ecology campaign.
Fork and Cream sauce
Most computer peripherals used today are connected by cables. These cables are difficult to place in an orderly manner and tend to entwine with one another. The weight of the cables forces the lines to fall to the ground.
The Fork is a product that takes an everyday USB or mouse cable and transforms the appearance. Picture a messy plate of spaghetti neatly twisted onto a fork placed above a layer of cream sauce right before it is ready to be eaten. The Fork creates a similar picture with any cable. However, the white iPod and iPhone cables look exceptionally well with this product. 
The Fork is a product that lets us reminisce into the past of our early childhood days. Through this product, a simple cable can allow us to imagine a fun-filled picture like the spaghetti previously mentioned. The creative and fun design can enhance further the imaginative minds of children. 
The greater part of the profits of this products selling are used to contribute for save the starving children.
"Buy One, Feed a Child!
With each item purchased, 'Save the Children' will be able to provide one meal for a child in hunger."

Hello, everyone.
Thank you for ordering 'leaf tie' by lufdesign.
Products sent you today for a second delivery.
If you don't receive the product or have serious problems, give me an e-mail. We'll find a way.
We are just a 'design studio' not a shopping mall or something, so it is difficult for us to ship products every day. but we're trying to be on date.
It normally takes about 5-15 days to get there. and if 'express delivery' is required please contact us.
This picture is sent me from our customer, We really cheered up.
Thanks for sending me the nice pictures.
Hello, everyone. Thank you for purchase from the Lufdesign online store.
We thought you'd like to know that we shipped your 'Leaf Tie' today by 1:00 PM.
But due to the recent volcanic eruption in Iceland, flights to Europe, including flights by some shipping carriers, have been disrupted. Local Post Offices are currently backlogged with packages being sent to Europe thus, the shipment of your parcel to Europe will probably be delayed. 
Many post-office clerks helped for the delivery because of many orders.
'Leaf Tie' is ordered in 15 different countries.
Thank you for your confidence.
P.S : We'll start to sell the 'Fork and cream sauce' in this week. :)
