FS: Could you please tell us more about your art and design background? What made you become an artist/designer? Have you always wanted to be a designer?
HJ: I studied womenswear design at the Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology for my undergraduate degree, and then I decided to move to London. After completing a year of study in Kingston University, I am now studying at the Royal College of Art.
FS: What is "design" for you?
HJ: My designs are mainly for women and people with special needs, hoping to improve their lives through functional and therapeutic clothing.
FS: What kinds of works do you like designing most?
HJ: I love designing functional and therapeutic clothing. I believe that clothing has great potential in terms of functionality beyond just being beautiful to wear.
FS: What makes a design successful?
HJ: I think a design is successful because it really meets the needs of some people, so successful design is based on the needs of the people.
FS: From your point of view, what are the responsibilities of a designer for society and environment?
HJ: I think in today's society, it is the responsibility of designers to pay attention to the topic of sustainable development and special groups in society.
FS: How do you work with companies?
HJ: I did, and I learnt a lot from these experience.
FS: What are 5 of your favorite design items at home?
HJ: My sketchbook, mannequin, pen, fabric, scissors.
FS: What are your future plans? What is next for you?
HJ: After completing my studies at the Royal College of Art in the UK, I plan to participate in more design projects that help special groups of people. I hope that my clothing can actually help people.
FS: Do you have any works-in-progress being designed that you would like to talk about?
HJ: I am designing clothing for women with ADHD, hoping that the clothing can help them in their lives.
