I'm continuing to practice hypertext markup language. That is, HTML. Simple HTML. And literally a pinch of salt from CSS and PHP. I've even developed a template of sorts. The site header. The end of the site. The menu on the left. And each site differs from the next – in content and style.

Frank Lloyd Wright is a master of modern architecture who successfully realized his artistic vision. He pursued a design philosophy based on the belief that "architecture should be an extension of nature," striving to create a harmonious relationship between buildings and their natural surroundings. The design of Fallingwater is a prime example of this fusion with nature, emphasizing the seamless integration of the structure into the environment.

Through this example, As a young designer, I continue to solidify my vision and identity. By experiencing various fields of art, I have clarified my interests and characteristics. One key realization from my creative process is my deep affection for depiction. For instance, I created a work titled "Time" when I was 18.

Dedication to a single work over an extended period resembles a form of training. My designs embody my characteristic of being 'detailed and precise.' Infusing my efforts into my work is my strength, and this dedication is reflected in my poster designs.

Additionally, I am skilled at drawing and depicting the forms necessary for design. I have enjoyed creating animations and illustrations since I was young. This experience has helped me develop the ability to create various styles of characters and illustrations defined by their unique features and messages.

I have always dreamed of becoming a design leader who effectively realizes my design vision and helps the team grow together. In five years, I aim to be an art director who leads a design team, using valuable insights to ensure clear communication with clients, ultimately satisfying them.

To become an expert in the design field in the future, it is important to start building a foundation in design theory and history now. Based on the invaluable experience I gained from participating in the 'Reimagine The Future ai' competition, which focused on creating and showcasing future architectural designs, I am particularly interested in researching how design can harmonize with AI and enhance user experience. To deepen my understanding of this, I plan to pursue both a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree in related fields.

A smart designer can be defined as someone who adjusts design solutions according to the situation, like a chameleon, while also inspiring others. To become such a designer, a deep understanding of design history and contemporary trends is essential. Additionally, understanding various cultural and social contexts is important.

Among the design works that successfully understand and combine history and tradition, I would like to highlight the 'Refined Rangoli Lamp' designed by Vijaya Mohan and Jarrod Lim, which successfully combines an understanding of history and tradition. What impressed me most about this piece is how it preserves the artistic essence and cultural expression of Rangoli while creating industrially produced metal products.

In my future design journey, I aim to pursue a similar balance, creating works that embody both cultural values and modern practicality.
