The Next Diner installation combines furniture and utensils to explore the fast-paced and fragmented rhythms of urban life. Drawing inspiration from American diner culture — known for its round-the-clock service and nostalgic atmosphere. 

A fabricated table top’s sliced-in-half red Americana-style design enhances the narrative of a solitary dining scenario. At its centre lies the Steakcake sculpture, a fusion of greasy steak (main course) and sugary chocolate cake (dessert), symbolising the perpetual mental state of busy city dwellers always looking ahead. Adjacent to it, the Next Diner Spork sculpture represents the multitasking culture prevalent in modern society. It combines a silver fork and a dessert spoon, highlighting the struggle of juggling both steak and cake, ultimately proving ineffective as either utensil. The custom-designed Next Diner logo appears on napkins and plates, serving as a reminder of society's relentless pursuit of progress.

The installation features a chair sculpture on one side of the table, while the other side remains open for viewers to stand. The Next Diner Bar Stool sculpture, with a spring replacing its solid pole, reflects the constant motion, chaos and unsettled nature of city life. Diners cater to those short on time, from office workers and taxi drivers to partygoers and tourists. They serve as a microcosm of a city's collective chaos and offer a glimpse into the often-overlooked fragments of daily urban life.
