I am a Junior Interior Designer with dual Master’s training from Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts (LAFA) and the Glasgow School of Art (GSA), shaped by both Chinese and UK design contexts. I approach interior design through concept-driven and research-led thinking, with a critical perspective that questions conventional spatial assumptions. My graduate project was selected as the GSA Interior programme cover and presented in a public exhibition. I have received academic scholarships at LAFA and awards at Milan Design Week and the CBDA Art Exhibition, and I am bilingual in Mandarin and English, bringing a thoughtful and committed approach to interior design practice. I am motivated by translating research and narrative concepts into clear spatial strategies and experiential interior proposals, with a focus on hospitality, exhibition and public interiors. I value collaborative studio cultures that emphasize responsibility, high-quality design delivery, and practical solutions within real-world constraints.…I am a Junior Interior Designer with dual Master’s training from Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts (LAFA) and the Glasgow School of Art (GSA), shaped by both Chinese and UK design contexts.
