This book focuses on a social group of which the designer is most familiar with: Chinese Millennials. The project was created in order to understand their complex and layered identity in regards to their spirituality, living conditions, but also their presence. Pieces of information that were collected allowed a deeper exploration into the subjects’ minds to further define their stories in a poetic and real manner. The visual language of this project was used to present the interviewees’ appearances and descriptions written in the Chinese language were included.
