About
Where should I start? If you ask me what I love to do the most, the answer is going to be a vague one: Design.
You know, that could be anything like architecture, interior design, graphic design, websites, and the list goes on and on. I guess no matter what I am doing, the goal is to simply make the outcome nice and pretty.
I started making my own website back in junior high around the 2000s and still make websites now and then, either for clients or myself. After I got into studying Architecture, fascinated by the complexity created by the interaction between people, light, shadow, and space, I realised this is what I wanted to do from now on.
In 2014, my partner and I travelled to Australia from Taiwan. It did not take us long to fall in love with the people and the land. Today, I am a Perth-based architectural designer telling stories with spaces, graphics, and coffee.
