Founded by Yao Liu in 2014, A Design Photo is dedicated to establishing the careers of local emerging contemporary photo art works, especially in Taiwan, Hong Kong and South East Asia. In the future, the gallery aims towards introducing international emerging artists to Asia.

A Design Photo Studio is located in the heart of Taipei, Taiwan. The gallery exhibits the artists whose works reflect new and innovative developments in contemporary art. Since Wen-Tsao Lin joined in later as Artistic Director, the gallery expects to engage local communities as well as developing international exchange programs for artists, scholars and curators.
