Yifei Wu
A Creator with Design Thinking
Hi, I’m Yifei Wu.
A Chinese girl from Product Design BA, Central Saint Martins.
Along with product design, I did many graphic designs， accessory designs and crafts with my own passion.
If I decide to do something, I will try my best to do it.
As I think the time is limited, once I spend time on something, I’ll make it worthy.
