I passionate about creating human-centered spaces that tell stories. Over four years, I’ve built a strong foundation in design theory and practice—from mastering software and codes to independently completing full-scale projects. I focus on materiality, light, and flexible layouts to inspire connection and imagination.

Project 1: Wei&Jin Dynasty Literati Experience Hall
This project takes the historical district of “The Hometown of the Book Sage” in Shaoxing as the background, focuses on the problem of homogenization of contemporary cultural and tourism Spaces, and proposes a design plan for a cultural experience hall with the life aesthetics of scholars in the Wei and Jin Dynasties as the core. Through spatial planning and scene creation, ancient ritual activities such as bathing, burning incense and tea tasting are recreated to build an immersive and interactive cultural experience path. The project covers cultural research, site analysis, spatial circulation design and material strategy, emphasizing the expression of the “clear, simple and elegant” spiritual temperament of the Wei and Jin Dynasties through spatial language, and is committed to realizing the contemporary expression of traditional culture in a modern context.
Project 2: Hope Primary School Library Reconstruction Project
This is the overall renovation design of a rural primary school library, aiming to create a warm, interesting and fully functional reading and learning environment for children. Fully participate in the concept conception, spatial planning, data research, modeling and rendering production of the project. The design focus lies in the accessibility of the space, natural lighting and the possibility of community sharing.
Project 3: Modular furniture design – Go Anywhere Sit Everywhere
The project was inspired by the spontaneous design of market vendors who built desks with logistics boxes. By using common materials such as wooden boards, logistics boxes and metal rods, combined with simple connection methods, a set of movable and detachable multi-functional furniture has been designed, which can be used as seats, storage or workbenches. Emphasize flexibility, convenience and low-cost reuse of materials.
