欣 宇

Hsin - Happiness also meaning interest or appreciate Yu - The world, universe, or outerspace

Together meaning to keep interest to the new world and as well as to enjoy the life of the present.

I have enjoyed life to the fullest and given the best of myself during my living.

Always in good mood with a sparkling personality.

My education and experience so far has equipped me with the skills and confidence to face a wide range of design problems.

I like the whole process, from getting into the mind of the consumer to presenting a refined, innovative solution. This portfolio shows a wide range of work, and hopefully proves that I am a creative thinker, with the ability to add intelligence to any designings.

Sincerely,

Kevin Tsaih

-The language and speech, especially the jargon, slang, or argot, of a particular field, group, or individual.

Designing is like a language spoken inbetween people and designs or people to people.

It might not be as direct or as intuitive, can be cultural or experience difference.

So to communicate is what design does.
