Graphic Design
The projects here were designed for various purposes such as social activities, business, desktop customizations, learning experiments, or simply being random. Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator were vastly used, Maxon Cinema 4D was also used for 3D modelling.

Earthquake Fundraising Poster
Fundraising events were initiated across the city as a response to the earthquake in Sichuan, China in May 2008. Sir Winston Churchill, Western Canada, and Henry Wise Wood high schools in Calgary used this design for the events.
 
China Unity Tees
The T-shirts with this design were worn in Sir Winston Churchill High School in April 2008 during a peaceful rally against Tibet riot, meanwhile promoting the unity and sovereignty of China. 50 tees were ordered and more than 40 were worn during the day.
 
Eurock Design Advertisements
One of the projects for Eurock Design Inc. was to design the YellowPages advertisements to promote the company citywide. The advertisement designs can be found in the 06/07 and 07/08 YellowPages for Calgary & Area.
 
Yearbook Cover
As one of the contest entries for the 07/08 yearbook cover for Sir Winston Churchill High School, the design focuses on the theme I Hope You Dance.
 
Desktop Wallpapers
All designs in this category were meant to experiment with certain techniques in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. The slides are arranged chronologically with the first one being the most recent, reflecting my personal growth as a graphic designer.
 
iPhone & iPod Touch Backgrounds
The backgrounds were inspired by the "non-mainstream" style in China, which ironically is a popular culture nowadays. The designs were rendered in Photoshop with traditional Chinese characters arranged in stylish ways. All images here are of original quality and available for downloads.
