Morning, 8 a.m., the subway hums with weary faces. City life is harsh, yet I believe we are wild grass - fragile but free, finding life within the concrete.

Final work

Wild Grass in Transit

After experiencing a two-month internship, I came to deeply understand the struggles of urban workers - especially for young people like me who are just stepping into the professional world. Growing up in a different era, our generation views the balance between work and life differently from the older one. For a long time, I found myself reflecting on this issue in the crowded, suffocating subway at 8 a.m. Such low quality commutes only add to the pressure of daily work. We must work to survive in the city, yet we cannot lose our sense of hope and personal vitality. This project aims to improve the commuting experience of office workers from a psychological and emotional perspective - making each day start pleasantly from the subway ride itself, and helping people preserve their energy and vitality within city life.
