Home > Designer Interviews > Nhi Ton |
Editor Frank Scott (FS) from DesignPRWire has interviewed designer Nhi Ton (NT) for A’ Design Award and Competition. You can access the full profile of Nhi Ton by clicking here.
FS: Could you please tell us about your experience as a designer, artist, architect or creator?
NT: Back in Vietnam, I studied business management and got a job in the hospitality field as my parents wanted me to. Yet I did not feel fulfilling, the creative side of me was yearning for more. I came to the US to pursue Art and Design study. I was in Delaware County Community College for two years learning all the Art and Design fundamental classes and then went to The University of the Arts for Master in Product Design. Art and Design help me observe every single object around me more closely and appreciate the beauty in places I did not see before. This new perspective really motivates me to learn how to make this world more enjoyable for others. I love what I am doing and I feel blessed that I found what I love to do. Design has always been my dream.
FS: What are your priorities, technique and style when designing?
NT: Sketching, Prototyping, User Testing
FS: Which emotions do you feel when designing?
NT: Curious, excited, frustrated, excited, surprise, happy. That's why I love design process :)
FS: What particular aspects of your background shaped you as a designer?
NT: It is a blessing that I grew up in Asia where I can absorb the historical culture as well as surrounded by various philosophies. Combining that with the knowledge and experiences that I gained during my study in the US, it created so much character in my personality and inform the depth in my designs. Also, coming from a Business Management background, it helped me to be able to work well in a team and to balance my creative side with reality.
FS: Thank you for providing us with this opportunity to interview you.
