PROJECT BRIEF:
Playfulness for adult,
in musical jam space.
    In China, access to quality music education is limited and uneven, making it more of a privilege than a standard part of basic education. For adults, learning music is often out of reach. This project aims to develop a modular music arrangement toy specifically for those who missed out on early music education.
