BIOMy name is Yung-Hsun, Chen. I am 24 years old and I come from an ordinary family in Taipei, Taiwan. I am fond of this land where I live in. I like the people here and the whole city. Of course, I like design as well.

After finishing my college design education in Taiwan Tech, now I’m obtaining a master's degree in industrial design in Taiwan Tech. My major are creative thinking and design culture. There are three parts in my academic career.

DESIGN ACTIVITY During my college years, I was once the chief of activities in the Student Organizat ion of our department. Furthermore, I was the chief of the media group in our graduation project. I prepared many design exhibitions and events. I was the coordinator of the 2009 annual design exhibition of our department. I also participated in Taiwan Design Expo and Taipei World Design Expo. Besides, I made preparations for cross-field design workshop. My work was invited to be displayed on Yanko Design Website.

After taking part in "Open HCI 2nd" and other cross-field workshops, I deeply realized the importance of design in the cross-field collaboration and I would l ike to help people to understand it more. Now I collaborate with the Graduate Inst i tute of Networking and Multimedia at National Taiwan University to establish the 2012 Human Computer Interaction Workshop. I cultivated my practical ability and team spirit by preparing the activities. To me, these experiences are the most valuable assets.

CREATIVE RESEARCH I now major in “Open Design”, which is basical ly about user aesthet ic experience and interaction with the products. Throughout the observation of user’s daily life, we could find out their potential needs and demands. These user experience and demands then become the foundation of our des ign. Moreover, the user can participate in the design process.

DESIGN Throughout my academic years, I enjoyed taking up different kinds of challenges and trying various design subjects such as human care, energy saving, environmental protection, material application and service design. And now I am focusing on “User Aesthetic Cognitive” and “Interactive Product Experience”. Since 2009, I started participating in both domestic and overseas competit ions. After winning some prizes, I found out that the most important thing is to combine different territories through design in order to change people’s real life, or to recall ones innermost va lues. To fu l f i l l these missions, when being a postgraduate, I kept attending many kinds of workshops like cultural commodities development, sustainable operation and human-computer interaction design. I work with the people from different regions, of different nationality and in different fields.

Never Finishedcategory: lightingmaterial: stainless steelsize: 40×40×150 (unit/cm)

“Never finished” was inspired by the prototype of a tubular lamp. It does not include a lampshade and is meant to be unfinished. This lamp encourages the creativity of the user, who can add any type of cloth to create a lampshade and decorate it in his or her own style. Additions and changes can be made to the lamp as often as desired. Whatever is used to decorate the lamp also takes on new meaning. This ultimately takes the final decision on how the lamp should look out of the hands of the designer and gives this privilege to the user. As a result, “Never finished” can never be finished.
