“当你妈妈怀你/当你出生的时候有发生什么有意思的事情吗？“
“Are there any interesting things that happened when you were born/during your mom’s pregnancy?”

This is a fold-out book collecting stories from different people about what happened during their birth and their mothers' pregnancies. The book contains a total of 65 stories, from 1988 to 2021. All the stories are told from a first-person perspective as well as in a cheerful tone. Although there are unpleasant memories during the pregnancy, the mothers remember them and describe them as a happy and warm memory. This fold-out book conveys the positive emotions of pregnancy through recording the past anecdotes, thus reducing anxiety about pregnancy.

A solar term is a traditional Chinese custom. The 24 solar terms were created by the ancients through the observation and calculation of the weather to facilitate the recording of time, to calculate the time for crop planting and harvesting.
[About solar terms] is an animation project about the design of bilingual fonts. The project uses both AE and Ai software to explain the meaning and customs of the different solar terms by the change of fonts in the animation, thus sharing the Chinese culture.

This project chose two places, Vauxhall Bus Station and Vauxhall Park, as a theme, using posters, stickers and tote bags to describe the contrast between bus station and park.
