Traditional & Digital Collection

I create a lot of isometric illustrations when working in a blockchain startup. The reason why isometric illustrations become a trendy style in blockchain remains mysterious, but this style could depict 3D ideas on a flat surface and visualize the complexity of the hi-tech domain easily. I believe that’s why isometric illustration is popular in this industry.

This is part of the works of Culture Reforging, the project that I started in 2020. As a native Formosan(Taiwanese), I should be familiar with my parent language. However, the indigenous people don’t use their native languages after the Chinese government-in-exile occupied Taiwan since 1949. Like Irish, many Taiwanese people are proficient in English rather than Taiwanese.

Life is culture, and I believe a decent design could serve as a medium to further encourage people to be proud of their first language and find their mother tongue back.

Sinnî Envelope

Sinnî Khuàilo̍k, which means “Happy(Khuàilo̍k) New(Sin) Year(nî)”. Formosan people say this sentence to each other in Lunar New Year. Besides, children know if they want to get ângpau(lucky money), they have to say “Kionghí Huattsâi” when they meet elders. “Kionghí Huattsâi”, which means “Wish you good luck for a prosperous future”, or more secular → Wish you rich!

As a member of communities, I’d like to share my works with people, especially ordinary people. Therefore I will apply my design to daily supplies in the future. Design should not be monopolized by higher classes but improve the quality of life for everyone.
