In this study, authors use thinned logs and bamboo materials to develop three types of household utensils with characteristics of Experimental Forest of National Taiwan University (EFNTU). Three types of final products, tea boards, dish shelves and casters, with patterns of Ginkgo leaves, Xitou Bamboo Cottage and University Bridge provide not only practical functions but also detailed visual presentation. The seedling shape caster is made from Phyllostachys pubescens (Moso bamboo) with green-color protection treatment. Shape and structure of Xitou Bamboo Cottage are the inspiration the ”Taste” casters which is made of Taiwania cryptomerioides and Cunnignhamia lancelata. The thinned logs in EFNTU, e.g. Taiwaniacry ptomerioides, Cryptomeria japonica and Cunnignhamia lancelata, and the Phyllostachys pubescens could be major material for household utensil. Additionally the monumental products could be further developed if their design incorporates with local characteristics. These products not only provide people with ideas of utilization of thinned log, medium-small diameter wood and Moso bamboo, but also promote forest management and demonstration.
