Hi, I’m Zhen Xiong (Zhen/Real),
a multidiscipline designer!
Making you happy is the goal of my design work.
Hi, I’m Zhen, a designer. I was born and studied architecture in China, and now I am living and starting my exploration of graphic/communication design in Australia. My experiences enable me to solve different design problems promptly and express my design ideas freely with my 3D, illustration, and handcrafting skills.
I’m exploring the possibility of using new technology and materials in the creative design industry. Making my audience happy is the goal of my design work! Please feel free to contact me to exchange ideas and for commission.
I’m happy to serve you with branding, packaging, architecture, and other creative design needs.
