Zhū Dōngzé (Max)
Max Zhu (b. 1998) is a designer based in London.
Graduated from Central Saint Martins with a degree in Architecture Design and is currently pursuing a Master's in Product Design at the Royal College of Art.
Max’s design philosophy is deeply rooted in his personal experiences across diverse cultural landscapes, from his hometown in northern China to cities across Europe. This journey exposed him to contrasts between traditional and modern, natural and industrial, which became a central theme in his work. By exploring the interplay of order and chaos, Max's designs aim to evoke emotional resonance and provide a sense of inner peace and belonging.
Through material experimentation and storytelling, Max seeks to uncover hidden beauty in the everyday, blending organic and mechanical elements to create poetic expressions of balance and harmony.
