About

Why EDI?
Yilin appreciates the small and diverse cohort in EDI where he can work with people with different backgrounds in a studio setting. He does not want to limit himself to designing behind the computer screen. Yilin hopes to expand his area of expertise by gaining hand-on experience on different formats of design, such as product and service design, and physical interactions in order to develop a comprehensive toolkit of methodologies that will advance his design thinking and design processes.
