Shifandi Sun / Product Designer

Shifandi Sun is a Chinese designer, she received her bachelor's in Product Design from the University of Oregon and is has a master degree at the School Of The Art Institute Of Chicago, where she was the recipient of a Merit Scholarship. She is currently a MA Design Engineering student enrolled in a joint master's program between Brown Engineering and Rhode Island School of Design.

Shifandi was often seen as a visionary, her visions might not always be understood by others but she is certainly a bold designer when it comes to designing for people’s needs.

This quality expanded her work to reach across a variety of materials and finishes. She challenged boundaries seeking ways to disrupt the user’s lifestyle, as the user experience is a core driver towards her design philosophy. In the era of picking and buying products solely through a screen, designs made for the camera might push numbers but a design for humans will outlive it.  She also had a passion about healthcare and robot related areas and had experience in industrial robot programming and robot simulation and control.
