I have a positive attitude and I am a person that whatever I decided, I will sink in wholeheartedly. During college, I won the chance to go abroad for a year. As I went to Germany, I felt fully stressed. But I still embraced things positively, attending many international exhibitions and traveling around Europe. I came back, completing my graduation design and helped arranging Yodex Exhibition. After I graduated, I designed ads, packages etc. and helped manage the marketing projects. The year after, I help my boss establish a new company. I’m not a perfect person and don’t have a perfect life. But I learn from experiences and grow from process. That’s me and I will step further more in the future.

What is “Touch”? You can only touch by your hands? The answer is No. You can not only touch by your hands but your heart, mouth, etc. The general explanation of touch is you can use your five senses to touch the world. We “Touch” to “Learn”.
We tried to collect every ways of touch to remind people that all of us were learning from touching things. We want people to “touch�and know our project.
We put the things we found into many drawers we collected.

Also, they invited Koln International school of Design nearly every year to exhibit students’works. The topic of this year is”Surprise”. Each of us had to come up with a “Surprising” Sweets.

Heaven or Hell Package Design
Some problems were discovered when ďŹ nishing the rough model. The strings inside mixed together and became a mess. The poster contained too much colors, which did not match with my product. The shape then turned into an icosahedron. Some surfaces were transparent which allowed people to see through it. The logo had a big H and two contrast colors, black and white. The poster was too normal. Other members gave me several ideas to make the childen sitting on the line between heaven and hell.
All the things changed from black and white into red and blue. And there was a base conbimed with an ad, a candy being pulling out.
Hans Roericht’s Deep Research

VC 101 Product Design
Hans “Nick” Roericht, born in 1932, studied at the Academy of Design in Ulm (HfG) where he later became a lecturer. He also lectured at the University of Columbus, Ohio. In 1976 he founded his own studio, ProduktEntwicklung Roericht, directly adjacent to the HfG. From 1973 until he became an Emeritus Professor in 2001, he taught industrial design at the Hochschule für Künste in Berlin (University of Fine Arts).

Something comes out from the space?
We observed some specific details and clarified the reasons of these facts. We found there was always a crack between his containers. We decided to use the concept of “nothingness”between two objects. We then started thinking,”What will come out from the cracks?”

In the end , we chose the light with many cracks. When you press down the top lid, the crack will appear and the light will come out. As you press harder, the cracks will become bigger and will be lighter.

Write a Short Birthday wish, a wish for the future or see milanis visions for the future ....
First, you have to coose a character, male or female.
Then, you will start playing the game with the owners.
Now different coloured balls appear. You have to control the couch by tilting your phone to try to make your character catch them.
If he/she “catches” a ball with a hidden product inside, the scene will change immediately (if no product is hidden, nothing happens).
The couch will turning and the surrounding changes from the abstract space to a room in the style of a certain decade. The decade depends on the caught product, which will be held in your hands.
You can click on the product you are holding to receive information about it, including the producing time, who were in charge at that time, and some detailed photos.
During the game you always have the possibility to enter the menu for the following options: Pause, Go On, and Quit.
If you chooses „Quit“, new options will appear: - Send A Wish (here you can send birthday wishes to Milani and quit afterwards) - Yes, Quit! (you end the game finally)
Seeing the Time / The purpose of this project is to observe a place and try to find its own characteristic. The place I chose was Jiufen. It is really prosperous now and attracts many tourists. But why it becomes a well-known place could trace back to 1920s, when people discovered lots of copper and built many refineries. I went to one of the refineries, which now is ruins, to see its history.

13-Layer Remains (Remains of Copper Refinery)
All the old refineries are concrete-base buildings.(They are different from the modern town in Jiufen, because the town contains many wood buildings.) The buildings exist many hundreds years. Parts of the concrete drop off and the metal appears.
The metal parts in the ruins all get rusty and gradually pollute the soil, which changes into dierent levels of red. The color is according to the time that the soil is being polluted. As the soil gets polluted longer, the color becomes more red. If it is polluted for a short time or even doesn’t get polluted, it will be a healthy brown. The gradient represents the time.

Concept Video of Popotan
Popotan / Whenever seeing a dandelion at dierent ages of life, we would usually pick it up, blow the seeds away and watch them y to other places. As designers, we hope to design for emotions and aim to evoke resonance among users when they see our products. Therefore, we decided to choose moments of nature that will never fade in order to create aesthetically appealing lamps.
