TJTL Design Studio: Archive
Before I started the startup with my friend, I was a freelance designer from 2014 to 2016. My work during this period mainly focused on User Interface & Interaction Design for products ranging from consumer electronics to internet business. I also provided branding design service for business, including design guideline and universal design language. Here are some of the major cases I’ve worked on during that period:

The company was developing a series of products in the cosmetic industry, such as smart lighting mirror. I was in charge of an experimental project called “AMIRO Future Mirror”, the project was dedicated to bringing smart home features and cosmetics recommendation system to a consumer-level mirror device. As a creative technologist, I was in a role to help the founder of this company to figure out the market orientation and software features for the first product prototype. With other engineers and designers, the hardware prototype was finished within three months. I was in charge of the graphical user interface and its user interaction strategy; I also created several software demo and mockups that can fulfil specific needs for the prototype, including the coding part for the lighting system (that can simulate different lighting atmosphere in a room), and visual design for its smart assistant.

My work responsibility was to help the founder of this company to design a sustainable and intuitive graphical user interface for the operating system with other software engineers and designers.
