Hello.
I'm Bryan, a Hong Kong based industrial designer who believes that design should be created with a twist of respect and dash of playfulness. My vision is to design simple products that can trigger a deeper connection between users and materials — making the ordinary extraordinary.
I observe the world around me constantly and am always inspired by it. This passion and curiosity led to great discoveries, allowing me to create innovative, beautiful and compelling products that solve real needs. I find pleasure in exploring how different materials and manufacturing methods can accentuate designs of an object. This micro-consideration shows the level of detail taken into account of people's lifestyles and how it enables the user to do better, complex work as well as eliminate frustration.
A 2015 graduate of Pratt Institute's acclaimed ID program, I have developed products on my own and in collaboration with others. I'm also a Third Culture Individual who grew up in countries across the globe. I gather inspiration from traveling the world, immersed in nature's profound beauty and various cultures. This global experience gives me unique insight and experience upon which to draw from in my design work.
Thanks for visiting.
