Mau-Sheng Houis a Ph.D. in Immunology with experience in biotech and pharmaceutical industry. His hair root product formulation started as botanic only and now has an ideology for sustainability implemented through product design. For him, a good design should trigger a second thought for the audience.

Hi, my name is Mau-Sheng Hou. I have a PhD in immunology with years of experience in the biotech and pharmaceutical industry.

Our hair root product formulation began as "botanic only". We further implemented our "ideology for sustainability" through product design and development. A designer is what it takes, but not what it names.

DEZONE focused on health care for the hair root. We create innovative delivery methods that facilitate the deep absorption of botanic-based formulations for each hair follicle. Strengthened root comes from counteracting growth burdens including oxidative stress, scalp microbiome, and hormone metabolites.

“Design” means extraction of elements from existing products; Repurpose through new organisation in sequence, ratio, or special allocation that gives the target audience a novelty perception or an innovative functionality.

Simple, transparent, straightforward. Customers can understand intuitively.

A “good” design could trigger a “second thought” for the audience.

Have a cup of coffee with my wife as we discuss the future of our children.

Colour of beetles in the forest.

The “pragmatic” in our culture had a great impact on my design.

Being recognised by a global design award is a huge honour for us and the company. The award fuels our motivation for more great designs in the future.

The "Eucalyptus & Evening Primrose Serum" for hair root micron-care is one of our innovative products under the "DEZONE" series. The serum is especially good for those struggling with excessive hair loss and dandruff problems. We wanted to share this product with everyone who finds work stressful yet still embraces the challenges.

Placing elements extracted from different products and putting them together in a new way can lead to "inadequate fitness" between these elements. To overcome these “inconsistent” or “awkward” situations, we need to adjust the balance between “creativity” and “functionality”.

Participating in design award events encourages us to think more globally and learn from designers from different fields.

Designs that bring people together unexpectedly.

Our design path was "outside-in." We are not "well trained" but have come into the specific product design from "outside the box".

Creativity comes from the "NEW" way people can see the world. Then, AI learns from our NEW experiences and saturates the industry instantly.

Try your best to see the world in a new way.

We can still study the pattern/forms/colour/rhythm of Biology and Nature.

Those who find me annoying. Because “friction” helps identify “integration”. The process of self-integration is always inspiring!

Faith, Family, and Friends.

Please try our serum product! It is really good for reducing hair loss!
