About Daniel Tu : TUDESIGN is an award-winning interdisciplinary design studio founded by Po-Fu Daniel Tu, an independent designer whose design sensibility is shaped by his childhood in Taiwan, adolescence in the Dominican Republic, and adulthood in the United States. Having shaped by his diverse cultural background, Daniel's aesthetics and sense of style appeal to a worldwide audience.

Since his graduation from College for Creative Studies (CCS) in 1995, with a BFA in Industrial Design, Daniel has had the opportunity to design brand identities, graphics, UI, websites, social network sites, furniture, products, trade show exhibits, events and corporate interiors (customer experience centers). Additionally, Daniel has volunteered in non-profit organizations, such as California Against Slavery, as art and marketing director, to help fight human trafficking.
STATEMENT OF ART:
Creating real, iconic and thoughtful designs - space, objects, and identities. Brands that nurture relationships and develop authentic experiences, which are meaningful and relevant to customers, create a closer emotional bond. By understanding my client’s business and culture, we create an immersive experience through space that touches the senses of the intended audience. Through thoughtful design solutions, we help clients succeed in accomplishing their goals and objectives.
