01.Just Like This, Again This Time Exhibition

Commissioned by SMU Libraries,
Exhibition Curator: Louis Ho
Collection Curator: Kamiliah Bahdar

Creative Direction,
Branding & Exhibition Design.


2026, Singapore

Visual identity for the exhibition Just Like This, Again This Time, titled “Rhythm of Resilience”, inspired by Acheik weaving, a traditional Myanmar textile known for its intricate patterns of repetition and flow. The concept translates weaving as both structure and metaphor—where rhythm and repetition become a symbol of resilience, continuity, and collective memory.

Drawing from the curatorial narrative, the identity reflects cycles of struggle and survival, histories that do not progress linearly, and lived experiences that continuously return and overlap. It becomes a visual meditation on recurrence, where rhythm is understood as both resistance and remembrance.

Website Design and Development.

2024, Singapore

I did a rebranding for Global Design Initiative (GDI 2.0), a global platform founded by five internationally oriented art and design institutions based in London, Cologne, Singapore, Taipei, and Tokyo.

The new identity reinterprets the asterisk as a core visual system representing connectivity, collaboration, and networking. Expanded into modular, interconnected forms, it visualizes GDI as a continuously evolving global network. The system is designed with flexibility at its core, allowing the asterisk to adapt across applications while maintaining a cohesive visual language that supports annual thematic evolution.

03.The Drawing Paper Issue 01
Commissioned by The Drawing Lab, LASALLE | University of Art Singapore
Creative Direction,
Publication Design,
Print Coordination.

2023, Singapore

I designed the first issue of The Drawing Paper, a publication for Drawing Lab that reflects on a year of programmes exploring drawing as an expanded practice. The project examines current and emerging tools, techniques, and methods that augment how designers observe, think, and interact with space, place, and environment.

The publication brings together collaborative works across disciplines, translating concerns around urban and social infrastructures, climate crisis, shifting habitats, global and local disparities, and material culture into visual and editorial form. It serves as a reflective archive of the lab’s investigations, where drawing becomes a medium for articulating and interpreting lived experience across sites.

04.Ox Street Pop-Up Experience

Commissioned by Ox Street, Carousell Group
Creative Direction,
Spatial Design,
Visual Identity Application,
Production coordination.

2022, Singapore

For Ox Street, at Culture Cartel 2022, I designed a pop-up retail experience centered around the launch of the platform’s new “Authenticated Used Sneakers” feature. Inspired by the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi, the space explored themes of imperfection, age, and authenticity — reframing worn sneakers as cultural artifacts rather than secondhand products. The spatial experience combined raw materiality, curated displays, and atmospheric storytelling to showcase both newly released sneakers and authenticated grail pairs with visible signs of wear and history. 

The project aimed to create a quieter and more reflective contrast within the high-energy environment of Culture Cartel.

Conceptual Product

Creative direction,
Branding,
Visual Identity System,
Type Design


2021, Singapore

I developed the creative direction, brand identity, and custom typographic system for a soap brand rooted in the idea of purity and clarity. Derived from a Latin-inspired name meaning “pure and clear,” the identity was designed to communicate precision, cleanliness, and quiet sophistication. 

The visual system was built upon a modular grid structure inspired by atomic and molecular formations, translating scientific geometry into a contemporary brand language. Through structured typography, spatial balance, and minimal graphic elements, the identity creates a refined yet systematic aesthetic that reflects the brand’s focus on purity and formulation.

Emerald Hill Conservation Association

Creative Direction
Brand Identity
Web Design
2023, Singapore


Brand identity and website design for the Emerald Hill Conservation Association (EHCA), a voluntary non-profit organization representing residents of the historic Emerald Hill Estate. Inspired by the neighborhood’s Art Nouveau architecture and ornamental details, the identity reinterprets the Davison Art Nouveau typeface into a contemporary logo system that reflects the area’s cultural heritage and timeless character. 

The accompanying website was designed as an interactive digital archive for residents, visitors, and history enthusiasts to explore Emerald Hill’s history and ongoing conservation efforts. Drawing inspiration from Emily of Emerald Hill by Stella Kon, the platform integrates narrative-driven interactions, including the “Ask Emily” feature, creating a more personal and engaging browsing experience.
