© 2024 Jack [Zaiying] Li
I am Jack out of the box. I leaped from my small hometown to a foreign country and into the world of design and motion. In every project, I bounce from mind-mapping to problem-solving, from 2D to 3D design solutions. I am always moving forward to fulfill my innate curiosity, gain insight to different perspectives, and discover the truth to deep questions through storytelling. “How do people perceive time?” “What is the real difference between construction and destruction?”. I am a thinker, a graphic designer, and a storyteller specializing in motion and branding.
