any challenge. For my family, I am a childish, spoiled little girl always making jokes. For my friends, I have become a caring little sister who always has a lot of weird ideas popping up. Before becoming a graphic designer, I studied electric information engineering. I don’t mind mathematics and physics, but I’m more passionate about art and design. Thus, I gave up my engineering career to be a designer and convinced everyone who didn't understand that side of me through my hard work. Being a graphic designer, I know it is important to be open to diversity. And I value every opportunity to try new design styles. Each attempt gives me more aesthetic inspiration. Through design, I learns how to use materials, colors, and fonts to integrate into a system.

02 KA FKAESQU E POE TRY STUCK IN THE NIGHTMARISH WORLD OF THE BROTHERS QUAY Objective / A hypothetical film festival project to celebrate the films of the directors the Brothers Quay. The objective is to coordinate a complex set of materials that must function together as a whole. The idea is to marry multiple messages with divergent formats—all with the essence of the Brothers Quay and their movie style.

08 S C A N D INA VIAN S PIRIT EMPHASIS ON QUALITY, EFFICIENCY, AND SUSTAINABILITY Objective / The European office furniture brand National values quality, reliability, safety, sustainability, productivity, and style in the products. They are devoted to offering good quality furniture at a better value and with shorter lead times. Thus, the objective was to redesign the CSR report for National, keeping two things in my mind: their brand values and brand intention.
