Why related to Architecture?
Due to the high professionalism and low interaction of architecture education I went through, I realized it is difficult for young people to experience the beauty and extraordinary of architecture only through books and webs.

How might we tell an appealing story of famous architectures to attract young people?
01. context
"I feel "seriously lonely" on the internet,
can I have more chance to build real-life connections? "
In today’s hyper connected world, social media platforms dominate our lives, capturing our attention with an endless stream of new friends, trends, and experiences. While this opens up opportunities for online interactions, it also has an unintended consequence—many users become disconnected from their immediate surroundings and lose the chance to form genuine relationships in their local communities.

06. Reflection
Why related to Architecture?
🌱  From 0 to 1
As the sole product designer, taking a product from concept to launch was a major milestone. This experience taught me how to balance user needs, business goals, and technical constraints, helping me grow as both a designer and collaborator.
🏄🏻  Collaboration in a Startup
Working closely with my team gave me invaluable insights into design and product workflows. I learned that early, fast-paced discussions speed up the process and reduce back-and-forth, making product launches more efficient.
📝  Learning from Established Products
While I once prioritized uniqueness, I’ve come to appreciate the value of established standards. By aligning with user habits and industry norms, we create designs that are intuitive and user-friendly, and improve the overall experience.
