Branding Campaign

The current high speed of social processes has contributed to the increase in the incidence of mental illness. Because being born in the Internet age, which is more sensitive to renewal iterations, is the current high-speed social process in the high incidence of depression groups. The word hūxi comes from the Chinese Pinyin, which means breath, and reads like a relaxing breath. Connecting us through sunlight, greenery, and water, the natural sources of life give us vitality and allow us to breathe freely. hūxi, breathe better, be free.

hūxi is a brand of medication created for Generation Z depression sufferers. Generation Z and the surrounding family and possibly friends are more receptive to change and are potential customers for "serious and fun" antidepressants. Their age ranges from 12-27 years old. Most grew up in wealthy families or had a decent personal income. Their good economic situation makes them or their families more aware of mental health issues.

A type specimen book for Breughel

A type specimen book of Breughel

Breughel (1982) is a serif typeface inspired by the Renaissance. It reminded people of the Renaissance male gaze when male painters used their pens to depict what they thought was the perfect heterosexual nude.

After all this time, the male gaze hasn’t disappeared from our lives. On the contrary, it has taken on more varied forms.

It has provoked numerous anxieties about women’s body image and appearance in contemporary times. Significantly, art critic John Berger first used the concept of the ‘gaze’ in Ways of Seeing (1972), a documentary analysis of the representation of women in advertising - as passive objects - and the nude subject in European art.

And the concept of the male gaze was introduced by Laura Mulvey in 1975. Coincidentally, this was less than ten years before the release of the Breughel typeface.

Extinction Catalogue Project

poster design

Posters

This project was inspired by the concern about the extinction of species and the need for people to be aware of the importance of protecting other living things.

Black and white images of extinct animals are used to add a sense of extinction to the image and to make the message more distinct.

The images of the animals are not complete here, thus metaphorically signaling their disappearance in this way. The marking of time is a reminder of constant vigilance and self- reflection.

This project was inspired by my observation of the silkworm process. This natural process brought me to think about the rhythms of life should we recover the biological rhythms broken by high-speed civilization?
