Client: Lao Feng Yi Restaurant
Year: 2017
Concept
Lao Feng Yi is a local Taiwanese restaurant in Kaohsiung. It opened in 1990.
Chinese phoenix, Feng Huang, to some extent symbolizes female leader in Chinese culture. Since the restaurant was started by a mother who wanted to earn a living and nurture her children, calligraphic word ‘ 鳳 ’ is embedded
into the logo design, to tell this family story.
Lines around the bird symbolize the nest, shelter of chick. The chick is carefully protected by the nest (the restaurant) his mother built. It also aims to convey a sense of warmth and hospitality to their customers.
Another proposed logo design using Chinese word ‘ 鳳 ’.

Concept
To embed Capital Letter 'O' and 'C', the logo aims to convey a sense of vastness and creativity. Inspired by the canvas of children's drawing booklet, the logo is made as a canvas, you may fill out your distinct colours. Rather vague colours are employed in order to let people image out of conventional sky-and-ocean colours.

Habits lead your mind and vice versa. The more you observe, the more unconscious habits you may discover in your day-to-day life. These are mine.
I bike as much as I can.
I usually cut my hair in the summer. Recently, I don’t.
It is not a rare state.
I jog at least three times a week.
Scarf is a must when winter comes.
Morning poo as a daily routine. Shh.
Stretching twice a day keeps the doctor away.
