Hi, I'm Shwe Yamin Aye! I'm currently specializing in Global IT at i-seifu College, Japan. Previously, I studied Architecture at Yangon Technological University, completing up to the first semester of my third year in 2020.
My diverse background in both technical and creative fields allows me to approach problems with unique perspectives and create innovative solutions.
Here, you'll find some of my works from 2018 to 2022, including school projects, freehand sketches, watercolor paintings, and traditional drawings. For digital art, I primarily use Ibis Paint X, working with a smartphone and a stylus pen.
First of all, I fell in love with that proverb, and it inspired me to write something with an architectural background. I was especially intrigued by the Japanese architectural masterpiece known as the Ribbon Chapel. I wanted to spend my holiday researching my field and sharing the beauty of architecture with others. Blending it with a touch of romance, I decided to publish a book on Wattpad.
The concept of the book cover: I wanted it to reflect the theme of the title. That’s why I designed it based on the idea of clouds and various shades of blue.
The second book is called [ENVELOPES]. I began to wonder—what if colors could express our thoughts and emotions? From that idea, I created a short story about a boy who loved to paint and conveyed his feelings through colors.
The concept of the book cover: Since the story revolves around colors, I wanted to feature envelopes in different shades. The black envelope represents the climax of the plot, so I placed it on top of the others, positioned at the center to draw attention.
The first project focuses on a picnic shelter. The concept of a "picnic shelter" inspired me to incorporate the form of a plant vase, and I chose to base my design on its shape.

I designed this portfolio cover for my job-hunting process in 2025 as a first-year Global IT student at i-Seifu College, Japan. For the front cover, I wanted to showcase my accomplishments, so I used a sketch from my university days as the background. I also incorporated a triangle ruler, a tool used in architecture, to symbolize my academic background.
For the back cover, I aimed for an IT-related concept, representing my name using binary code. Both designs were created using PowerPoint.
