Things from Taiwan is a bilingual zine that delves into Taiwan’s cultural identity through the lens of everyday objects, iconic street foods, and clean visual storytelling. Presented in both English and Chinese, it invites readers to experience a more intimate side of Taiwan—nostalgic, vibrant, and deeply rooted in daily life. Instead of focusing on typical tourist attractions, the zine highlights the details locals know by heart: plastic stools scattered around food stalls, a humming Tatung rice cooker in the kitchen, and the unmistakable scent of stinky tofu drifting from a night market. These scenes are translated into a graphic language that is minimalist yet full of warmth. Each spread features clean, thoughtful layouts that celebrate form without sacrificing character. Dual-language typography is used not just for accessibility, but as an aesthetic element—balancing space and rhythm across the page. Visual icons such as braised pork rice , bubble milk tea, and stinky tofu serve as cultural anchors, connecting readers to emotional memories through design. These aren’t just foods—they are symbols of home and belonging. Things from Taiwan is both a personal tribute and a design exercise in cultural storytelling. It captures the spirit of a place through careful curation, typographic sensitivity, and a quiet sense of play. Whether you’re returning home or exploring for the first time, this zine offers a warm, visually engaging introduction to the textures of Taiwanese life.
Mellowee is a conceptual menstrual care subscription brand designed to make an essential product feel personal, soft, and natural. At the heart of the project is customization: customers can set their own delivery cycle to match their menstrual rhythm and build a package that reflects their needs. Depending on flow, length, or personal preference, users can choose different sizes and quantities of pads, creating a subscription that feels both practical and uniquely their own. The brand name combines Mellow—symbolizing softness and calm—with Wee, where We represents togetherness and the added e stands for the consumer. This reflects Mellowee’s vision of a brand built alongside its users, positioning menstrual care as a natural, supportive part of daily life. The brand’s core values are Customization, Softness, and Sustainability. These are expressed not only through the service but also the design. Products are framed as natural, everyday essentials, and packaging highlights both emotional warmth and environmental awareness. Visual identity reinforces this philosophy through pastel tones of baby pink, deep green, pastel yellow, and magenta pink. Watercolor-inspired textures convey fluidity and softness, while rounded, cloud-like typography adds a friendly and approachable touch. The packaging system emphasizes ease and delight, making the unboxing moment feel special rather than routine. With the tagline “Everyday & Feel Special,” Mellowee challenges the idea that menstrual care must be clinical or impersonal. Instead, it reimagines it as a personalized, thoughtful experience that values comfort, inclusivity, and emotional well-being.
LooperRoom App is an AI-powered mental health support platform designed to bridge the gap between therapy sessions. Created for both patients and clinicians, it combines friendly chatbot interactions with clinician-facing dashboards to reduce patient dropout and strengthen continuity of care. I led the end-to-end product design—from user flows and questionnaire logic to interface systems and enterprise-level clinician tools. My work included designing conditional form logic based on patient age, setting up modular components for responsive UI, and crafting a tone that balances trustworthiness with approachability. I also collaborated closely with PMs and engineers to ensure clinical accuracy and data compliance. LooperRoom is not a virtual therapist, but a connective system—keeping patients engaged, informed, and emotionally supported between sessions. As a designer, I focused on creating an ecosystem that empowers both sides of care: patients and providers. The result is a product that is scalable, accessible, and deeply human-centered.
