PHILIP HAN
I am driven to create desirable futures.
It is my belief that creators bear the responsibility to respect all living things and their ecosystems - be it cultural, financial, or environmental. Our actions, and the actions we don't take, have impact.
My design process revolves around human-centered design thinking methodologies, focusing on understanding the larger context behind problems before considering potential solutions. Collaboration is a central tenet of my iteration and testing.
My passions include:
Exploring the world and its wonders
Creating art and experimental designs
Wandering via bike or hike
