Xicang Market

Xicang Market is a book that documents a weekly street market in Xi'an, China. The book records the objects used as stalls, the ways of displaying goods, the handwritten signs and the relationship between people and objects. The design is kept minimal so that the material is simply presented. The book is divided into eight chapters: location, market, signs, stalls, oral accounts, goods, price and vendors. Each chapter is independent and restores part of the market scene. Paper similar to the advertising flyers found at the market was chosen for one chapter.

PLANTS TRADE

PLANTS TRADE is a series of an innovative and artistic form of botanical specimens, which was developed to build a better relationship between humans and nature rather than educational materials. The Plants Trade Concept Book was prepared to help you understand this creative product. The book, designed in exactly the same size as the product, features not only nature photos but unique graphics inspired by the nature’s wisdom. More interestingly, the graphics are carefully printed by letterpress so that every image varies in color or texture, just like natural plants.

Optics and Chromatics

The title Optics and Chromatic refers to the debate between Goethe and Newton on the nature of colors. This debate is represented by the clash of the two letter-form compositions: one is calculated, geometric, with sharp contours, the other relies on the impressionistic play of colorful shadows. In 2014 this design served as the cover for Pantone Plus Series Artist Covers.

Feral Horses

Feral Horses Brand Identity is a corporate identity designed for a company that works in the contemporary art investment field. The identity speaks to three audiences: art enthusiasts, professional traders, and curious achievers. A single pictogram brings together the artistic and the financial sides of the brand. The logo and its variants are pixel perfect, so the mark stays clear and recognizable. The colors were defined with the Pantone system and then converted to sRGB and CMYK. The selected fonts work both in print and on screen.
