Our Positioning

International Design Media, Chinese Design Stories.

DesignFan supports designer growth through editorial publishing, video programs, interviews, project stories, city observations and design culture communication.

Why DesignFan Exists

Good Chinese design is often scattered across local media, WeChat articles, project decks, brand channels and offline events. Many designers have strong work but limited international storytelling. Many brands want to connect with designers but lack credible content and precise channels.

DesignFan exists to bridge this gap through curated media, interviews, video programs, events and industry resources.
