Case Studies
Sunday: Chủ Nhật Collection
Sunday is a self-initiated passion project inspired by the mindset of self-care and self-love passed down from generations of Vietnamese women. The skincare collection includes seven important steps, which are named after the Vietnamese weekdays. Vietnam’s weekdays are numbered, starting with Sunday as the “main day,” and Monday to Saturday as second to seventh. This is the Chủ Nhật Collection, the main collection.
The Chủ Nhật Collection was created as a modern design that combines technology and art to promote positivity. It is built around the conscious use of quality ingredients, eco-friendly alternative materials, and user-centered product design.
Shared Dishes
Shared Dishes explores the impacts of acculturation amongst second-generation Asian-Canadians using immersive digital design to communicate stories and experiences of the Asian community.
The Asian-Canadian community is often overlooked, made to feel foreign or different, and constantly displaced despite their every right to call Canada “home”. Many second-generation Asian-Canadians feel disconnected from their ethnic culture due to acculturation and the integration into Western society. Shared Dishes explores and unravels these raw feelings and experiences to understand and open conversations about acculturation.
