harmonious balance – Yan Huang

Recently at VIVID I discovered Yan Huang whom is an Australian sculptor, lighting and furniture designer of bespoke and mixed media objects that are beautiful, highly functional and collectable. Yan is the driving force behind Yan design studio; the studio philosophy of ‘less is more, form and functions are one’ ensures a harmonious balance between concepts, aesthetics and engineering.

Yan’s one-off and limited-edition pieces are managed with precision and care from concept to execution and delivery. She works autonomously, collaboratively or to a brief, as required. The studio is equipped to produce large- scale timber, fiberglass and metal objects, and maintains a collection of design objects available for purchase. Yan has been represented in group and solo exhibitions in the USA and Australia. Her work is held in private and public collections in Shanghai, New York and Melbourne with her work recently been acquired by the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV).
