ABOUT
Melissa Liu is currently studying in the Glasgow School of Art to pursue a BA(Hons) Interior Design degree. Previously, she graduated from Temasek Polytechnic with a diploma in Interior Architecture and Design.
Her path in interior design began when her interest in art from an early age cultivated into passion for interior design. As a young child, she was different from most girls. While many of the other children took an interest in ballet and piano classes, she urged her mother to sign her up for art lessons instead.
Art has taught her to think visually. As her observational skills grew stronger, she began to take note of the details in the surroundings of her daily life. Why does she feel more relaxed in some places but uncomfortable in others? How does natural and artificial light affect the ambience of a space differently even though both are light? How does the design of a space influence the behaviour and speech of people? She was intrigued by the mix of emotions and thoughts a space can evoke in people.
Her love for art has since developed into an aspiration to become a successful interior designer who is able to positively influence people's life positively through her design.
