Visual Signage System

Nanxiang Incity

Nanxiang Incity is a visual signage system created for a shopping mall in Shanghai. The design draws on the local culture of Nanxiang, an area known for cranes and temples, and turns the form of cranes flying in pairs into abstract signage images. Floor guides and merchant listings are placed at escalator entrances and exits and at points where visitor flows cross. White ink blocking printing is applied to the light sheets, so text and outlines stay clear. The hanging pieces use mirror pivot points that blend with the mall interior.

Krafton Game Union

Krafton is a brand experience design created for a group of game development studios. The logo design system expresses both the uniqueness of each alliance brand and the consistency of the group. The design is inspired by the crest of a craft guild of the Middle Ages, and a shield-shaped frame is used as the basic form. The same crest shape is applied to all alliance brands and is differentiated by designated colors. Logos, colors, typefaces and key visuals are used across touchpoints such as business cards, forms, icons and advertisements.

Save Calendar

Save Calendar is a series of illustrations created for a calendar on the theme of saving food. The illustrations show a farm field through the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter. Colors change with each season, so the four periods are easy to tell apart. A symmetrical composition in a Chinese style gives the images a modern look. Month and season information is placed at the top of each sheet. The drawings were made with computer software and printed at 800 by 800 millimeters. The series shows the hard work of farmers and reminds people to value food.

The Kala Foundation

There has long been a global market for Indian paintings, but interest in Indian art has lagged in the US. To bring awareness about different styles of Indian Folk Paintings, The Kala Foundation is established as a new platform to showcase the paintings and make them more accessible to an international market. The foundation consists of a website, mobile app, exhibit with editorial books, and products that help bridge the gap and connect these paintings to a larger audience.

Ryujin

Ryujin is an illustration inspired by the dragon deity of the sea in Japanese mythology. The artwork was made from scratch and follows a minimal approach with a strong focus on detail. The background shows Japanese-inspired waves that reflect the character. The concept was first sketched digitally, then vector linework, shading and color were applied, and final adjustments completed the image. The illustration is printed on posters, greeting cards and shirts. The aim was to convey the power of the character through traditional Japanese imagery combined with a personal style.
