Hello! I'M

PENG ZHAN

An interdisciplinary industrial designer, currently based in Michigan, United States. 

I am focusing on product design, furniture design, and design strategy. I always try to create designs that can enhance users' experience and interact with them. 

As a designer, I understand how products and experiences need to consider a diversity of people, their culture and needs, and our ability to create a more sustainable future. When I design, I take all these into consideration, both the unique customer need - problems they are facing, challengings they are experiencing, culture they are living and breathing; as well as the business need - the most cost effective and sustainable solution. 

Design gives me so many enjoyable moments. The greatest reward for me is to see my products susccessfully launched into the market. 

In a world full of possibilities, outside of work, I love photography and traveling all over the world to experience their culture, people and architectures. I am always inspired by people I meet and culture revealed to me when I travel.  

Work hard. Have fun.

You cannot understand good design if you do not understand people; design is made for people.
