It’s always interesting to hear of a designer’s career path, more so if that path isn’t all too linear. Yehchungyi – a Taiwan-based designer – first majored in Japanese Language at university and, at the time, admits he didn’t have a grasp on design at all. He was 25, and decided to pursue a master’s in the Japanese city of Kyoto to become a tourist guide, “to immerse in the cultural vibes,” he tells It’s Nice That. “I was astonished by the many pleasant things around the city. It was the first time I knew what design, art and photography was.”
