Collaborative Project
2025
WLOG is a physical-digital hybrid experience designed for Wise. It transforms leftover foreign coins into meaningful travel memories through an interactive airport photobooth. Users deposit their coins to capture a final moment of their trip, generating a QR-linked digital journal where they can revisit their journey, transfer remaining currency, or donate it—turning small change into lasting experiences.

Connected with a companion app, it delivers critical information without screen interaction, helping riders stay focused and safe on the road.
The Oscar Niemeyer Museum is reimagined through a branding project that transforms its iconic curved structure into a custom typeface. Inspired by its sculptural form, the design extends its architectural language into a cohesive visual identity.
CarryOn is a bag brand that reframes disposable carriers as everyday essentials. Made from PLA, a biodegradable material derived from fermented corn starch, the bags are designed for single-use while safely returning to nature. CarryOn rethinks the ordinary plastic bag through a sustainable approach.
