The World needs no changing – We do

Eravolution is a studio for industrial design and product innovation. We believe that the future is about bringing positive changes to living without causing negative impacts to the environment. Our studio discovers design solutions through engaging in scientific research and the understanding of nature’s systems. We challenge the preconception of design by derogating the importance of ‘style’ in pursuit of a new concept for beauty, functionality, and sustainability. The studio was founded in London and based in Hong Kong since 2012. Our work is positioned as Hong Kong design influenced by a synthesis of oriental cultures and occidental design principles.

We founded the madethisera brand in 2020 to market our commercialised products and other collaborating Hong Kong designs to the public.

Our company provides consultancy service in the fields of industrial design, product design, and deep tech innovation.
