YUONING CHIEN






LA is in crisis - 53,000 individuals are homeless and in need of housing. Dear Neighbor is a partnership with our homeless neighbors to address this crisis. Together, we have created messages and letters addressed to fellow Angelenos about the importance of Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH) - one of the primary solutions to ending homelessness in our city. Check out our murals in South LA and Koreatown: each features a personal message from a homeless Angeleno about the importance of housing in their lives.

Since my dad moved to China for work,
my parents wasn't able to see each other as much
anymore since they live in different parts of the world.
This was hard because they've never been apart ever
since they got married.
I decided to design special tattoos for my dad
so he can wear it and look at it
whenever he misses my mom.

DESIGN FOR GOOD↑



It was my senior year and since
Laura and I are both very adventurous people,
we decided to collaborate and design a book together.
We decided that we would do one thing
we've always wanted to do...
Every week. For 10 Weeks. Together.
We each wrote down five things we've always wanted to do
and put them in a mason jar
without telling each other what we wrote down.



Once it was picked out,
there was no turning back and no excuses
but to go on the adventure together whether
the other person liked it or not.
The project was a test on our friendship as well as a way
to step out of our comfort zone.
During the 10 weeks we documented everything
from photos to questionnaires
and designed the 10 adventures into a 260 page book!

THE MASON JAR↑





This clothing brand is based on 20 random
vintage objects. I created a clothing line
from the 1910's to 1990's.
For every 10 years, I used an invention
that was created during that decade
as a representation of that particular year's clothing.
Timeline is a fresh and modern way to shop for vintage clothes.
TIME LINE↑





My uncle that I'm really close with suffers
from Alzheimers and it breaks my heart
to see him lose his memory day by day.
Because he forgets so easily,
I became scared that one day it might happen to me too;
so I created a diary that helps me keep a record
of all the memories that happen in my life.
MEMORY COLLECTOR↑








I designed a series of postcards for a designer named Karan Singh.
I combined my geometric style into her abstract work
and created a whole postcard series
for her 10th anniversary Facebook page.

You can put on your desk
and arrange with those geometry shape blocks.

What is Mirc?
Mirc is the country that I create and design for it.
I imagine this country is the most peaceful country in the world.
It is a small island which located in the middle of North Pacific Ocean.
