Kang's Portfolio 2022

Contents As a MS Packaging major, I possess the ability and the sense of space and architecture during my undergrad. Besides, I have used different pathways to approach visual and graphic design due to my personal interest. I try to classify the following works into four groups: PACKAGING DESIGN, GRAPHIC DESIGN, ARCHITECTURE DESIGN, SPACE DESIGN.

TUZLE is a modular three-dimension structural puzzle. It is composed of 3 modular sizes of the triangle. Users can create various sculptures and types of furniture in TUZLE of assembling pieces.

Training people’s three-dimension thinking and encouraging people to build their own design works depends on their needs. TUZLE can not only be a sculpture, it also can be a furniture and a part of sign system. Considering about the packaging design Because TUZLE is a large-scale product, I tend to design the package with wheels. Therefore, users can easily carry the product anywhere they want. The promotion idea utilizes the package characteristic and TUZLE's attributes; I create multiple promotions, including a pop-up exhibit collaborating with a gallery and the outdoor pop-up stores.

The product targets those who care about the environment, and most of these types of people are into simple but impressed package. During the development, I avoid generating the usual cleaner spray bottle. In the beginning, I cast the majority of spray n oz z l e s . S e co n d l y, I d e m o n s t rat e relating the formation of both nozzle and bottle.

Then I considerate the ergonomics of the bottle that the users can easily hold and use.

The Noguchi Museum Rebranding

In this project, I rebrand the Noguchi Museum. The original logo is a logotype and the artist's signature; however, I want to design that the logo can convey the texture, feeling, and impression to the audience. Therefore, I started from Noguchi's artworks. In the beginning, I found Noguchi's sketch on the postcard and deconstructed the drawing into the new logotype. Combining the Akari lighting's horizontal line, finally, the new logo comes out. Besides, I also extend the possibility of the logo's dynamic to make a motion graphic and to the website design.

On the way of taking the metro to the city center, there is a sight filled with hills, tunnels, and graveyards. I entered the hill to investigate the orientations, heights, and types of graves trying to understand the background of the ethnic groups of the graves. The graveyard was built in the Japanese Occupation Period (1895-1945).

However, the government announces to move graves now but is it necessary to eradicate the old-time memory? The graveyards on the hill are the urban border.

My thesis kept the exterior using steel plates to construct thin shells. There are five entrances all placed in the ruins, which are on the edge of the hill. There are ferns hung in the interior. With the sunlight streaming from the 3000 holes where the original graves locate, I try to interweave the city memory and citizens' daily life in the space.

The project is derived from the formation of Madagascar; I researched mangroves in Madagascar. One hypothesis suggests that mangroves were served Noah’s Ark that brought species from Africa to Madagascar, additionally, mangroves are nowadays also being habitats for them.

Considering mangroves as a concept, I set a tree graveyard at the top of the international airport. Separated by different floors, only families can enter the pavilion to miss their relatives, and foreigners have a sight that can involve the atmosphere when they at the “DUTYFREE” shop. I try to connect the dead people and foreigners to one program because in Chinese culture people believe that when people pass away they will go to another place, the same as foreigners take off to another place.

The program is congregate housing, the main concept of the housing is light. The project aims to ensure that each unit can gain sufficient sunlight. Consequently, I developed a system that looks random but due to crisscross units, it makes all of them attain the opportunities to exposure sunlight. The form and the site planning all depends on the orientation of sunlight and the context of urban planning.

Due to the variety of historical context of the site, our group marked several important points of time and spaces after the investigation by the elderly. When organizing information, we bridged the gap among diverse analysis charts and map all the resources that connect with religion.

Through a large amount of observation, we realized that fishermen didn’t care about future development and declined to comment on local policy. On the other hand, residents strongly expected tourists to foster the area. “ Are the new outsiders required? ” We set a few slight structures in the middle of the port, each structure implied one of the native religions of the area.

Religion in the coastal area is a vital requirement. As a result, we wanted to strengthen the culture of the site instead of establishing fancy buildings or commercial facilities.

This project is a group task in 2014, our department invited the visiting professor, K e i j i A s h i z awa , a n a rc h i t e c t a n d industrial designer in Japan.

The site is a narrow firebreak alley between two girl dorms, therefore, the major users of the site are the girl students. Each of them passes here at least twice a day, in the morning and evening. However, most of them ignored this area due to dark and gloomy. As a result, I want to convert the dim narrow firebreak alley into a waiting and leisure space.

We designed different size tables like a p u z z l e t h a t c a n a s s e m b l e .W h e n conducting the project, due to the rugged floor, we design the Japanese style wooden floor. To do this, can not only fix the problem of the surface but also build an atmosphere with more relax and completely leisure space.

After graduation, I worked at Atelier Or studio, and I participated in the project of the famous architecture biennale in Taiwan. In this project, I supervised and designed the construction and edited the collection of the biennale.

In this biennale, we gathered 18 groups of architects, and the exhibition was not only an interior gallery but it also had 11 installations around the interior exhibition.

The main measure in this exhibition design was the usage of different scale black iron square tube. Our studio prefers to use simple items to assemble the construction of the space and try to create a lithe sense of spatial perception.

Following that sense of space, each visual explanation of the interior projects was hung from the ceiling, which made people feel they are floating in the air.

The workshop is based on the theme of Cities, Grow in Difference, the Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism \ Architecture (Shenzhen) (UABB). We went to Nantou Old Town, one of the urban villages around Shenzhen. To reflect the theme, our group analyzed the distinctive phenomenon, residents scattered their furniture such as chairs, sofa, and tea tables. Our design measure was to color and attach stickers to label furniture to be public so that when the biennale opens visitors can also have a seat. On the other hand, it can border the public and private space which can make the old town neater. Besides, we provided the “lazy stand cell phone holder” to the local people. With our planning, we designed a map that can guide visitors to find the public chairs and chat with residents to accept a new identity.

Chinese Architecture 2015-2017

The posters are lectures hold in Architecture Design Department and all designed by me. The lectures are about Traditional Chinese/Taiwanese architectures culture and I try to use different approaches to express distinctive series. I utilized the calligraphy brush to establish Chinese style, and use hand drafts, to collage and assemble to a new pattern. In some cases, I used real modernism buildings, these cases aimed to turn them into "my Chinese style." Also, I try to do some color practice, using two or three colors to highlight the theme of posters.

We considered the final review and exhibition of the thesis design as a museum summer expo.

To begin with, we gather all students to draw the symbol of their thesis design to be a piece of precious relics which exhibits in the museum. All the visual design develop from this painting, therefore, the DM reserve all the painting and put the brief statement on it. In the second place, because of the concept of the museum, I design the logo for this museum. And the key point of the logo is from the Chinese character of "pu kua", which is a type of divination in Chinese and I expand and strengthen the quality of this character which looks like Chinese Hexagram Symbols to be the museum logo to magnify our core concept. Lastly, the invitation, we design it to be the VIP tickets for the museum to be a measure to approach the main concept.

Behind the Dining Napkin Feb.2016 Behind the dining napkin

Traditional Chinese medical dietary supplementation is a unique custom in Chinese lives, especially Taiwanese love to have Ribs stewed in medicinal herbs to be snacks in night markets.

In this project, students need to promote one of Taiwanese dishes to the foreign professor, and in my team, we choose medicinal stewed ribs to be our main core. The soup in dark color seems n o r m a l w h e n i t co m e s to C h i n e s e medical food. However, for foreigners, it might be considered as a witches brew or a poison.

Finally, our group built the napkin expanding to partition to hide women's scrunched facial expression because when dating, many ladies cannot pick out stewed ribs. Also, for promoting the positive side of the Traditional Chinese medical-dietary, we symbolized the food materials into attractive patterns and applying pink and powder blue on our design.
