Originally Dickson was not a carpenter, he founded “The wasted” after Hong Kong was hit by the most intense typhoon Mangkhut in 2018. Over 55000 trees were wrecked and planned to be sent to landfill. Even he did not know anything about woodworking at that time, he still took this opportunity to start his company, not only to pursue his dream of woodworking, but also to reduce wood waste. So he set up his own studio and started to learn woodwork by watching videos online. Through continuous experimentation and practice, he grew his woodwork skills and went on to produce exquisite pieces.
