Our Journey

Designed. Coded. Shipped.

2014 – 2024
Architecture
Spatial thinking under real constraints

Both trained in architecture, we carried projects from brief to construction sites across Asia, Europe, and Africa. From brief to site, our built work taught us to design under real constraints, coordinate execution, and make ideas survive contact with the world.

Generative Art
Lucio+Damiao — 5 cities across Asia

We exhibited generative art installations across Shibuya, Taipei, and beyond — exploring tension between algorithmic precision and physical craft. The driving force behind our artistic creation is the exploration of profound connections between seemingly disparate phenomena.

SmartHit Tennis
5,000+ users. Zero marketing.

We combined Xiao's deep learning expertise with Yiran's product and frontend craft to build SmartHit — a tennis AI app that auto-clips rallies and visualises trajectories entirely on-device.

Let's build
together.

We're looking for the right environment to accelerate SmartHit — and to keep building things at the intersection of sport, design, and AI.
