The primary design concept of the brand “PRINDUCT (Print + Product)” is to transfer the print design language into the commercial products (living, fashion…). The project “Verbal Forms” is the new selection for the brand.

The work “Text Fish” is a physical interactive installation that uses to promo the project “Verbal Forms”. The idea is to literally transfer the verbal forms into life forms (visually). It uses sensors to detect the human activity and calculate the data through the computer, so the visual images will react to it spontaneously.

As a Graphic designer, my job is to make everything Look batter. But what are people get. Some times they only buy the product just because a beautiful advertising package. After pray to God, I decide not to cheat people anymore. What they see is what they gonna get.

Black and white, unclear print production, blink symbols make all my products come from the good old days. The design style of the bags are all classic design from 40’s~60’s.

What if the cotton box that use to pack the vase is beautiful enough to put some flower in. As a designer I think why not just buy the package that is as good as the merchandise itself.
