Hi there. I am Derek Man Lui, a Hongkongnese-Californian currently learning British at Wieden + Kennedy London.
Before London, I was a creative director in China, where we made hot censored content behind the Great Firewall. Highlights include: creating a mural for Michael Jordan, imagining the car of the future in Beijing, and falling in love with Shanghai through street photography. Oh and all the food, I miss it so much.
Before that, I was living in San Francisco, my hometown and birthplace. The city raised me on its intoxicating fog, its super burritos, its wonderfully weird human beings, and of course, this beauty π
