The Journey

The Journey has just begun, I can say.

I have so much feeling to say about this class but I don't know where to start. Yet, I have to say THANK YOU to Professor Robinson, Tonya, Bradley, Sujin and Veronica. I appreciate the patience and the teaching from the teacher, and the support and care from my dear classmate.

During this journey, I learnt how to be a considerate designer. To satisfy the client's need, I have to think about the principles and term that I learnt in the class. Especially all the elements that I wrote in this blog, how the form, space and order cooperate together, and also the diagram that I draw let me understand how do the terminology works. I think this blog is a great chance for me to look back and keep my motivation to move on my other journey.

Overall, this journey is tough yet I experience, experiment, and examine from different things which makes me be a better person. I hope I can learn more in the future, and keep the good work with you guys!

Well...I think I have to head back and continue my journey in the cardboard world now!
Keep working!:)

Design philosophy

Design is a thrilling adventure which happen everyday all over the world.

My design philosophy is not grandiose but simple.
As my experience for studying abroad, and went to different countries so far,
I see myself as a cultural exchanger.
I am born and living in a big city- Hong Kong  for my whole life, and experience 'woods' and another life- the US.They refresh, inspire,exchange, and enhance my design.
As such, My Inspiration is from different places and different people.

My design should be a bright and joyful achievement which people around me can benefit from,and also have a good influence to the user.
Even though I understand that being a professional and successful artist is not easy,
I hope i can learn to be a helpful, thoughtful, brave and creative person to accomplish my dream.
Coming to SCAD is my first step to pursuit my dream, I hope I can learn to be a professional in here.
I will use my knowledge to design a suitable and satisfied space for my client, and able to solve their difficulties.
Even though I know it is not easy to be a successful designer, and there are so many ways to measure success. I do think that when clients have nothing but good things to say about their experience with me, then I would venture a guess that I have got some good success going on. I think it is the thing to keep me going on to be a good designer as well.

To achieve my dream,
I will try my best to be better self,


And I know I will get there someday.
