I was born in Beijing, China. I am interested in three-dimensional modeling and spatial construction, with a focus on form, structure, and spatial relationships.

I use 3D models as a tool to explore and test spatial ideas, examining how different elements interact within a defined system. My interest lies in the logic behind spatial organization as much as in visual outcomes.

I take a human-centered approach to spatial design, considering how people perceive, move through, and experience space. My work focuses on creating structures that respond to human scale and behavior rather than purely formal outcomes






Project 01 - Algo-Feed




A conceptual dining space for phubbers


Algo-Feed is a spatial project inspired by the phenomenon of “phubbing”—people constantly looking down at their screens.
 
It explores how digital systems shape and “feed” humans, imagining information as food controlled by algorithms.

The restaurant unfolds across three vertically linked environments—Data Recognition, Feeding Zone, 
and Emotion Feedback—forming a full cycle of algorithmic control. 

Algo-Feed reveals how the simple act of looking at a screen becomes
a spatial condition—turning human behaviour into something readable, consumable, and programmable.











































                                                                                            
Project 02 - In White We Hear


A multi-sensory spatial exhibition for people to understand sound


This project is a spatial exhibition exploring how music and sound shape emotional and sensory experience.
It imagines a pure-white world where colour fades and sound becomes the primary way visitors perceive and connect.


The exhibition leads visitors on an upward journey with audio and visual triggers. 
Noise-cancelling headphones activate specific soundscapes, while AR visuals deepen each atmosphere.








































                                                                                              
Project 03 - Sunny Sprouts





Outdoor space for people to enjoy sunlight


This project starts from the idea of “growing in the sunlight,” creating a shared, relaxing,
 and imaginative outdoor space centered on the interaction between children, pets, and nature.

The space is divided into three zones: a relaxation area, a play area, and a pet-friendly zone. 
Grass-shaped installations offer places to lean on, play with, and explore — catering to different users. 
Sunlight not only brightens the space, but also acts as a connector between humans, 
nature, and animals, encouraging people to step outside and soak up the sun.





































                                                                                                 
Project 04 - “I”SLAND






A space design project for introverts in London City


The word "island" originally refers to land surrounded by water. 
Breaking it down, we have "I's" and "LAND."
 "I's" can symbolize "mine"—a personal space, or "I" people—a reference to introverts.


As an introvert in the bustling city of London, 
I aim to create an independent space for both myself and others like me, 
where the "I" can retreat into their inner world and find protection. 
In a fast-paced environment requiring constant interaction, 
this space offers a boundary, enabling self-regulation and personal reflection.

Other  Works





These works come from my interest in looking at the city in everyday life. When I walk through urban spaces, I often notice how buildings sit next to each other, how light changes during the day, and how familiar places can feel different depending on the moment. Making art helps me slow down and pay closer attention to these details.

Some of the works are acrylic paintings based on photos I took myself. Instead of trying to copy what I see, I focus on colour, contrast, and mood to show how the space feels to me. Other pieces use digital collage, ink, and sewing, which allows me to cut, layer, and rearrange city images in a more experimental way.

My photography edits continue this process by using simple shapes and colour blocks to explore structure, repetition, and form. Together, these works show how I use different materials and methods to rethink everyday urban scenes.
