So... What are you?

My name is Hanji Xu.

As of now, I am learning techniques, experimenting with materials, and capturing observed natural organization and analogies in these.

Resource is still essential to my practice.

December 2025: I am exploring what art means in design. I experiment towards a future beyond the minimal and the kitsch. The bottom line is—it has to be beautiful.
I have worked with wood, metal, silicone, bio-plastics, and glass.
I have a record of resource-conscious designs.
