Ruiqi Liu is a graphic designer whose work focuses on editorial design and typography. Drawing from personal experience, she explores overlooked emotional exchanges and psychological states through the arrangement of images and text in everyday contexts. Her recent projects investigate family relationships through visual language. By developing coded systems and symbolic forms, she transforms the invisible into the visible — prompting deeper reflection on parent-child dynamics, privacy, and communication.

Inspired by Morse, I designed a code system intended for children. These symbols act not only as tools for encryption but also for emotional expression. The poster alludes to the secret, inner thoughts that children often hide from their parents. This highlights the often overlooked issues arising within family dynamics, and how these must be 'decoded'.

Access Denied—Mystery Language

My project primarily explores the issue of privacy within parent-child relationships. As the first volume of my publication series, this publication primarily presents my research on historical encryption systems, which I have organized and compiled based on my own understanding. It aims to help readers gain a more systematic understanding of cryptographic structures.

Access Denied—Code Design

As the second volume of my publication series, this book builds upon the research on historical encryption systems to develop a personalized code system and explore its practical applications. The work aims to highlight the expressive power of symbols and to provoke reflection on the nature of privacy and communication within family relationships.
