And emerging technology, creating thoughtful digital experiences across industries like EV mobility, fintech, AI, and smart cities. With a research-driven approach shaped by architectural training. Yifei focuses on designing adaptive systems that evolve through real-world testing and experimentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Yifei Wang Q1<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you! My name is Yifei Wang, and I\u2019m a UX\/Product Designer with a multidisciplinary background in architecture, user-centred design, and emerging technologies. I hold a Master&#8217;s degree in Architecture from the University of Pennsylvania, and over the past five years. I\u2019ve worked across global markets\u2014designing for industries like EV mobility, fintech, AI platforms, and smart cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My journey into design was shaped by curiosity and transformation. As an architecture student, I was fascinated by spatial systems, human interaction, and the relationship between structure and behaviour. That naturally evolved into digital product design, where I found a powerful medium to improve lives through intuitive, scalable experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a great honour to be recognised by the London Design Awards. For me, it\u2019s more than just a milestone\u2014it\u2019s a validation of years of hard work, experimentation, and collaboration with teams that believed in bold, user-focused design. It reinforces my mission to build experiences that not only serve a function but also tell meaningful stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Q2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This recognition has amplified visibility for my work and opened doors to new collaborations, especially with cross-disciplinary teams working in AI, smart infrastructure, and sustainable tech. It has also helped build trust with clients and stakeholders who value design-driven innovation. For my current work at QCharge and other platforms, it\u2019s added credibility and momentum for bigger design initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Experimentation is core to how I work. I view design as a hypothesis that evolves through testing, iteration, and often unexpected feedback. For instance, while designing an AI-driven EV charging system, we explored facial and license plate recognition as part of the user login flow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We prototyped multiple approaches and even tested them in public parking environments to learn how users reacted in real-world contexts, leading to surprising insights that reshaped both UX and the hardware integration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tingchendesign\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"broken_link external\"><i class=\"icon-instagram\" style=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/tpbennett.com\/people\/tajal-rutherford-bhatt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external\"><i class=\"icon-globe-line\" style=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(read more <a href=\"https:\/\/thelondondesignawards.com\/winner-info.php?id=2039\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"external\">here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><em><a href=\"https:\/\/muse.international\/?p=28433\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/em><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yifei Wang is a UX\/Product Designer with a background in architecture, user-centred design.
