About
Hi, my name is Ming Li Chang and you can call me Ming. I grew up in Shanghai, China and pursued a design education in both industrial and spatial design at ArtCenter College of Design (Pasadena, CA). In the past few years I have gained experience both working as an independent designer and as an industrial designer at a design studio. As a creative, I am a divergent thinker who approaches the decision making process through trial and error, finding value in every idea. Decisions are based on taking insights to ideate concepts that have a clean, approachable aesthetic without being overcomplicated. By illustrating convincing narratives, I want to bring ideas to life in a way that others might say “I could’ve done that”. I am Ming, whose purpose is to take diversity of thinking to craft designs that people love.
“Dai ” is a table lamp inspired by the empowering message about hard working women of the Dai people in Yunnan shaded by a tilted straw hat. The translucent shade, with a unique form and detailed with an etched pattern, looks to create a unique table lamp experience that makes the figure glow with a functional downlight. The table light design looks to celebrate and shine a light a figures that are usually hidden.
