Hey, nice to meet you in this little corner of the internet

Hi! I’m Alice(Xinran) Yu — a designer passionate about creating meaningful, research-driven experiences that connect people, technology, and the world around us.

With a background in Architecture and Human-Computer Interaction from Carnegie Mellon University, I approach design as both a system and a story — zooming between structural logic and emotional nuance. Whether crafting an interface or prototyping a service, I think deeply about how people navigate not just spaces, but decisions, emotions, and interactions.

I love learning new things, meeting new people, and hearing fresh perspectives. Outside of design, I find inspiration in the rhythm of everyday life — singing while I cook, getting lost in unfamiliar cities, or diving into stories through film and TV.
