COMO, CO, ITALY, July 30, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The A' Design Award, a highly respected recognition in the field of homeware design, has announced Syn by Jia Sheng Chen as a Silver winner in the Homeware Design category. This prestigious award celebrates the innovative design of Syn, a universal calendar that stands out for its unique layout and mechanical, three-dimensional structure.

The design addresses the growing need for innovative and functional homeware products that enhance user experience without relying on digital applications.
