Hello!
I am Danning Niu, a designer with an interest in adaptive-reuse and narrative design.
I design interior spaces with an integral approach. My process begins with understanding the existing structures and their contexts. Bridging historical thinking and modern sensibility, I discover meaningful narratives and let them unfold through nuanced and creative design.
