        每次過節在文具行總販賣許多亮亮看似廉價的塑料紙片，透過欣賞ConfettiSystem的作品後，我們將對這些材料有所改觀．這些片狀條狀的紙片經由流蘇狀的形式，以及美妙的配色形成令人驚豔的藝術作品．Nicholas Anderson and Julie Ho transform simple materials such as tissue paper, cardboard, and silk into confetti creations with their company－ConfettiSystem．

　　 藉由網站可看到ConfettiSystem和不同品牌的合作，充滿了閃亮亮modern party靈感，令人著迷與豐富多彩的圖片讓人可窺見他們被五彩紙屑包圍的夢幻生活以及讓人不禁想要置身其中．The idea behind Confetti System generally is "to play with the idea of celebration, and what objects can come out of that — to make it something new," says Ho.他們總激勵自己發掘出beauty in small places and unexpected things，透過這些看似日常生活微小的物件營造出即刻改變空間氣氛的力量，在空間裡的創作往往如同櫥窗裝飾般短暫停留，反製造出一種輕快卻又令人留戀的情緒與樂趣．

下面引述zero1magazine的訪談能幫助我們更了解ConfettiSystem有趣的想法：

How did you decide to be a business?

We were decorating our friend's parties and music performances together for awhile. We really loved how we could transform a space and mood for one night, adding an energy to the space and leaving people with a memory.

What kind of art mediums does ConfettiSystem work with?

We’re both really inspired by simple materials and exploring the limitless possibilities and opportunities to transform something that is so everyday into something unexpected and refreshing….to give it value through our hands and ideas.

"This is our dream of what a piñata should be." 

　　sightunseen介紹中提及在他們設計與道具造型師的背景下，經常幫朋友們佈置party的空間，“We saw how it changed people's moods, and that's when we had the idea.”，Anderson and Ho便著手開始做party objects like a piñata, blindfold, and necklace.”，系列中運用了紙絲綢與皮革等材料，以金銀粉彩和霓鴻色系為主要創作，另一方面也不斷在實驗開發使用新的素材形式與更多的深色對比組合．在Hawaii多元文化成長背景影響下的Andersen說到：”this is all about memories of celebrations, and all of their textures and colors.”使得這樣的作品具有piñata節慶般歡樂的精神，同時對作品的要求也讓創意跳脫並非只是piñata，而是具有美感的藝術品，並帶給我們許多色彩的啟發．
