Hello
I am Zi Li. I am passionate about finding problems and using design to solve them. Design to me is the perfect combination of Science and Art. Solving a design problem is like solving a mathematical equation. Every step has a reason behind it. It is about critical and analytical thinking. By the end, as a designer, I try to deliver a solution in an artistic way that makes better sense to the audience.
