Department of Taiwanese Literature 101 Graduation Play
Inside the crowd and living individually in the world, we are, inevitably, have interactions with other individuals. As a prime number, “One” is the lonely start of every possibility, 101 is also a prime number, while amazingly it also has the concept of dual. No matter facing with another object or a unit, even an environment, we are all staring at EACH OTHER, having dealings with the “one”.
Being the one, the conversation with the entire society includes coherence, confuses, and often conflicts. During the process of growing up, we hope the idea can reminds people of their own ability and position in the society, remaining the original aspiration of “With One”.

With One is the graduation play of the department of Taiwanese Literature, I was honored to take charge of visual design and arrangement.
The Chinese name of With One (Yu-Yi) is the same pronunciation as raincoat, making people associate with the color of rainy day. Therefore I choose light yellow, azure and grey to be the major color of activity. Inside the guide book introduces the plays, actors, staffs, concept of the play and preparing process.
The solitude and isolation when the rain occurs separate people emotionally. The whole program continues with the tone and colors, with the blurry, cold and acid atmosphere, just like being in the rain, seeing the world though water drops and the yellow plastic raincoat.

The Chinese name of The House Spa means the humble home with unpolished jade, containing its central idea of modest and simple, but shine with luster inside.
The logo graphic chooses triangle and round to represent the 'home' and the 'jade'. With roof on top and stone on the ground, the logo connects the core value of The House Spa, hoping customers can feel comfortable like home but also match their wishes and beyond.

Cooking Scenery is a cooking blog website, taking down every aspect of cooking, including tools, recipes, ingredients, kitchen decoration and so on. The smooth shape of logotype represents the fluent process of a cook in kitchen. Follow with tone of the website, all items are designed in the same grey tinges. Adding images of a fork and a pot lid handle into the logo increase more fun interest of the design.
The project is still on the progress, and there will be more in the future.

Thailaleba is a creative Thai food restaurant; the name in Chinese sounds like “too spicy”. The light coral peach color stands for gently spicy flavor from the famous Thai spicy soup ”Tom Yum Kung” with coconut milk, and the cedronella green color represents the strong but fresh fragrance in Thai food. Instead of the traditional Thai style, the modern, concise shape of logotype reflects its creative cousin and motivation of keeping new and interesting.
Following are the branding VI design, continuing with the series of color and tone to remain the same fresh and creative style, applying to cards, chopsticks cover and envelopes.

2 designers from Spain and Taiwan, externalize our inner world on the base of communication, language. Two disparate languages come together in this project to raise awareness of the cultures and the importance of knowing more about the partner.
The main idea developed from the difficulty of Chinese characters to understand and read, just the knowledge of phonetics. We hope the Chinese culture will be more interesting and fascinating to Spanish, and come to learn Taiwan.

The poster is made for Spanish to understand more about these painting-like characters, and try to make the connection between.
The structure of this project was to bring to the public’s freedom to design and the different ways that exist to reach a common goal. This concept is integrated in the product poster, a Sky Lamp, typical Taiwanese culture. In both cultures there are large differences. In case of the "ù" Spanish, only the Spanish people use and Chinese characters have the same uniqueness. The sign that we present is the union of these phenomenon. The poster can be used to decorate the wall or tear the paper with the die cut, and then you can fold it into a traditional Chinese sky lamp.
Another option and depending on the target is to use it as a ceiling or table. As organic materials are completely environmentallyfriendly and reusable, it constituting a clean, elegant design that respects the environment. This last topic comes from the hand of the two cultures, the idea of nature, purity and harmony like the new design concept in Spain, ecological and reusable.
We propose the idea of recycling this poster, just cut the figure by the die contour found in the center and then build the lamp. With the help of a candle or heat source, this lamp will fly towards your target.
Like Mies Van de Rohe said, "Less is More". We do not want to color to avoid overloading the design with more visual weight on the outside. While after tearing the sky lamp, we hope the rich, old traditions of 2 cultures will reveal, show and truly come to each other.
