Design a better future, create the reality, live the dream.

Hi, I’m Yen-Van.
I’m a Bay Area–based designer driven by minimalism, sustainability, and the pursuit of smart, efficient living. My work and lifestyle reflect a deep commitment to reducing waste and designing thoughtful solutions that save time, effort, and energy.

As a lifelong student of design—across architecture, product innovation, and everyday systems—I’m constantly exploring how people interact with their environments and the tools they use. I believe that great design should be intuitive, low-maintenance, and adaptable to society’s evolving needs—whether digital, industrial, or agricultural—while remaining conscious of our planet’s natural resources. You can check out some of my blog posts on the HOME page.

With my background in architecture and hands-on project experience, I’ve developed a portfolio that reflects my approach to thoughtful, efficient, and sustainable design. You can explore my PORTFOLIO to see a range of work spanning conceptual studies, technical detailing, and built projects.

Some facts about me:

1. Spreadsheets are my jam.
2. I like to keep my floor and surfaces clean of clutter.
3. I find joy in decluttering and fixing things around the house.
