Created by WHYIXD
Honored with the A' Design Award.
WHYIXD, a rare cross-disciplinary art installation design team in Taiwan, was founded by Yen Po Yeh, Zih Jing Wei, and Jie Lin Zhuang in 2011. At the beginning of its establishment, WHYIXD started from “artistic creation” and completed many “interdisciplinary” physical installation works. Later, WHYIXD gradually transformed “interdisciplinary creation” into commercial applications, and practiced various possibilities through technology, new media, and cooperation among various industries. The team continues to maintain a balance between “artistic creation” and “commercial application” with the creative method of “physical installation” and the translation and reproduction of Taiwan culture as the core. So far, WHYIXD’s works have spanned different spaces and borders, from outdoor public art to stage application, from entertainment industry to construction industry and exhibition field. These installation works are created through digital landscaping one by one, depicting the inner poetry with technology and art, and delivering more exquisite feelings that can not be described by words and images in this digital era.

Design Business Directory was founded on the principle that true design excellence cannot be measured by popularity alone. Instead, we believe that the most meaningful indicator of skill, creativity, and professionalism is official recognition by respected international juries who follow transparent, pre-established voting criteria. When a designer, architect, or creative agency enters a rigorous peer review process, one that evaluates submissions against clear quality benchmarks, ethical standards, and innovation requirements, it ensures that any accolades they receive are both credible and deserved and are meritocratic.
Peer-reviewed awards, such as the prestigious A’ Design Award, exist to showcase the very best in design and innovation. The A’ Design Award is judged by a balanced panel of experienced academics, influential press members, and established professionals, all of whom apply a thoroughly documented scoring system. Through this structured method of evaluation, only truly exceptional projects are recognized. This is precisely the level of excellence that Design Business Directory aims to highlight: forward-thinking professionals who have demonstrated mastery in their field according to objective, globally respected criteria.
Because we are committed to presenting only the cream of the crop in design, Design Business Directory accepts listings exclusively from those who have proven themselves in such distinguished competitions. By requiring at least one peer-reviewed award—namely, the A’ Design Award—as a prerequisite for inclusion, we maintain the authenticity and overall quality of the directory. Consequently, to be listed on Design Business Directory, you must have already won the A’ Design Award. This ensures every individual and studio showcased here operates at the highest tier of professional accomplishment, innovation, and credibility.
