Interview with Juntao Liu at Wednesday 6th of May 2020 FS: What is the main principle, idea and inspiration behind your design? JL: I hope to break the previous stereotype of buddhist food and redesign traditional buddhist food through modern simple design language, so as to broaden the age group of the audience and attract more young people. FS: What has been your main focus in designing this work? Especially what did you want to achieve? JL: The focus is on how to make traditional buddhist food into a fashion item that appeals to young people. I hope it looks fresh and fresh, which not only conforms to the aesthetics of the current young generation, but also has certain religious aesthetics.

FS: How did you decide to submit your design to an international design competition? JL: This project is a bold attempt, so we hope to gain recognition from our peers and let more people know about our work FS: What did you learn or how did you improve yourself during the designing of this work?
