About
Illustrator and graphic designer Andy Wang graduated from Emily Carr University with a shiny and proud degree in communication design in the year 2010. Nine months later he was lured to intern at the International Designers Network in Hong Kong, and found himself in Shenzhen, China soon with a position as the Chief Designer in a visual communications company. Working in China meant proper English was rare, and it only appeared in the English version Adobe Illustrator Andy installed on his work computer. Now, he is back in Vancouver. After retouching his Chinese roots, Andy realized he couldn't stand Chinglish and he really missed his ligatures and small caps. -

Experience

CreativeVancouver, Canada2010 - Present (16 years)This is my baby; this is where I create. This is the birth place for many collections of work in the fields of brand identity, creative directions, graphic design and illustrations. Self-initiated projects like the “Hiding-in-the-Wrong-Place Club” and “Horses and Beasts” live in the creative atmosphere of galleries and cafes, while cliental branding works like “Oollo Tea” and “Amplus” roam effectively in their respective communities. Noonmoon is a space of work and play.

Chief DesignerShenzhen Shi, China2011 - 2012 (1 year)After touring the city of Shenzhen and meeting the right people, I was hired immediately as the chief designer of a local design firm. The studio, named Puffant Visual Communications, was young and needed help with their brand identity, line of products and marketing material. So I signed an one-year contract, had my first landlord, attended my first wedding ceremony, and ate a turtle first time in my life. I worked in China.
