Hi, I'm Yilin. I am a designer from Shanghai. My works come from the most sensitive corners of my heart. I always draw strong inspiration from the details of everyday life. Book arts, pattern design and set design are currently my preferred languages of visual communication. In particular, I experiment with colours, shapes and crafts. In the future, I hope to create new visual arts with like-minded people, and I look forward to meeting new friends!

Post Post-it

The project shows the features of post-it notes by exploring colour and shadow. Playing post-its in experimental ways is helpful to observe the unnoticed and let the ordinary objects design themselves. To find creativity in life is why I continue to design.

Post Post-it Flower

In London, the sun is short-lived. When the sun shines on a 3D post-it note, it naturally creates a stable environment for growth. I experiment with the set design for flowers to grow in. Some flowers grow with the bottle and the sun, and some flowers shape different forms to bloom into new life.
