I investigate why and how design and technology mediate our interactions with ourselves, with others, with both the material and digital worlds, and with the living ecosystems we are part of, focusing particularly on societal challenges related to well-being and sustainability.
Ciao! I'm Siyuan (/ˈsiː.juːən/), a PhD in Human Behavior and Design.
Mandarin and English are my go-to languages for work.
I speak some Italian as a foodie, and Dutch is my latest language adventure. 😉
