About Us
“You can always edit a bad page. You can’t edit a blank page.”
― Jodi Picoult
The name to our studio derives from a famous comment to the hand-writing style of a well-known Chinese calligrapher named Xizhi Wang.
Its modern interpretation lies on describing how thoroughly one can deduce from a question.
Our studio has extended its meaning to another level. We think: the words and terms that we use today are far different from what they used to be in ancient times. However, the words themselves contain much more power of impact, penetrating, and rendering.
We genuinely hope that with our assistance, your words can be expressed properly and clearly.
