Designer of the Day Interview

1 May 2021

I have been engaged in interior design for more than 12 years,The fields of study during the school period include graphic design, landscape design, urban design and space design, and specialize in urban planning during the research period.

I like to appreciate beautiful things, and I also like to work on creating beautiful things, especially when creating beautiful things, I also meet the needs of all kinds of people. It makes me feel very fulfilled, so I don’t hesitate to choose Be a designer who can bring happiness to people

Observing the natural environment, and then thinking with hands instead of the brain. Thinking while drawing by hand is my usual way. After the overall structure is determined, I start to draw with professional software.For example, AutoCad 3Dmax

At the beginning of the design, the hand-drawn concept sketch is the most exciting time. It is a bit boring when I start to draw the drawings needed for the construction in the middle, but when I see the satisfied expression of the customer after the construction is completed, I know this is what he wants. This always fills me with happy energy

When I was studying, I always admired designers or architects with beautiful hand-painted, especially Louis Kahn’s view of light, Wright’s design hand-painting beyond contemporary thinking, and Carlo Scarpa’s detailed hand-painted drawings, which are all for me. It has a great influence. So I think that as a designer, the hand-painting ability is essential.

See more, listen more, learn more, practice using the five senses to experience the environment and space, and try different cultural experiences. These will become the nourishment of a designer's creation.

Communicate more, don’t be alone

The Internet is already an important medium for acquiring modern trends. There are many new things or new materials that can be used, which is very interesting. However, there is too much information and it is easy to get lost in it. We must be able to calm down. Listen to your heart and establish your own values and beliefs. Trends are short-lived. A competent designer can create trends instead of following them.

How to know that a good design needs to be experienced.A good design naturally appears around you and provides its functions when you need it.
Often people confuse design and art. Design is to solve problems, and art is personal creation. A good designer must have the ability to listen to needs, rather than making something that no one needs.

Carlo Scarpa’s detailed design is admirable, and the craftsmanship design makes people yearn. If I can talk to the master, I hope I can talk to Carlo Scarpa and Wright about their belief in creation?
I think the impact of our understanding of good design is a comprehensive one. It is the accumulation of time that contributes to our views on good design.
There is no doubt that Carlo Scarpa’s design is still stunning

We often think about the nature of things when designing. It should not be too difficult to work with me, but the partners I work with must have a positive attitude and passion for design, and the most challenging aspect of this profession is passion. How Maintaining the enthusiasm in your heart is very important.
A good designer can constantly reflect on himself, improve his abilities and tap the endless enthusiasm in his heart

When I am able to provide some subsidies to some disadvantaged groups and provide practical experience to help students integrate with society

In the course of this competition, we discovered our shortcomings. Many outstanding works are really admirable.
This is a good competitive relationship. From the competition, we are also learning different viewpoints and skills, which is of great help to the improvement of our ability.
The design competition is a good opportunity to examine oneself and see that many colleagues are working hard to make the world a better place, so that you will not feel alone.

Design Legend Interview

21 April 2021

In my high school, I studied Visual Design from a technical school until I changed to Urban and Landscape Design in college and then to Architecture and Interior in graduate school, and I always advocated hand-painted technology in my schooling days.

I excel at the integration of beauty and function, and beautiful things always attract my attention and design has long been integrated into my life. Becoming a designer is inevitable rather than accidental for me.

I chose to be a designer.

Residence is the closest to everyone's life, and I quite like residence design. But with the rapid changes in the global environment, I think people need more design friendly to nature and environment, and residential design is no exception, which is what I wish to do.

See more, listen more and learn more. Learn to talk to my heart and sincerely believe in what I believe in.

A good design lies in being able to listen to the needs of users and propose solutions that are better than the needs. Excellent designers can foresee users' needs and lead users how to use them.

Every design has its limitations and conditions, and it is difficult for us to unify standards to say what a good design is. But for each designer, it is worthy of the trust of his or her own profession and trustee and allows users to solve their needs naturally when they have them.

A good design can naturally make people and things around you better, and the environment becomes better as long as everyone pays attention to the connotation of design.

I will design a house that can make people coexist harmoniously with nature and follow the changes of nature without damaging the environment if I have enough time.

I don't think I have succeeded, but I make every effort to follow the changes in the world and study hard.

I love Carlo Scarpa's design for details, and long for Tadao Ando's thinking height for oriental [Zen].

I don't think I have an exceptional design yet.

I don't know about the others, but I always learn to talk to myself fully all the time.

I will set clear and phased goals and examine my shortcomings to learn fully.

Design is not art, but it also includes the connotation of art, which I refer to practical operation. To put it bluntly, design is a process of solving problems, but it covers beauty and function.

The support of my family is my biggest motive force.

I am still learning how to be an extraordinary designer.

Make more people see myself through the stage of world competitions.

Create friendly and beautiful things.

Strive to create beautiful things with friendly goals regardless of the object.

There are no satisfactory works at present.

The design division of labor can be more delicate, and show more respect to engineers and technicians.

Design of the natural environment.

Not necessarily, it needs to be assessed on the merits of each case.

First take the need as the framework to sort out the integrity.

This is the same as chicks are hatched from eggs and hens lay eggs.

Provide a bridge between professionals and non-professionals.

Hand drawing, AutoCad 3Dmax

Whom is it suitable for to use and what is the design concept.

I am still looking for it, and I believe that people with common ideas can create better works.

Share with friends in the design industry and read autobiographies or collections of works of great deceased architects or designers.

The Poetic of Space , Tadao Ando's Autobiography.

On the technical level, it is better to look at things from a global perspective by honing hand-drawn technology at the beginning and then entering computer graphics. On the thinking level, it is necessary to take the whole as the basis for thinking, instead of entering into detailed design at the beginning.

I hope to talk to Carlo Scarpa, Louis Kahn, Frank Lloyd Wright.

This is a medium for people to know me.

It's great to have a cup of coffee and listen to music in the morning.

I don't know if I can become a great designer!

The population will decrease, and people will start to long for a simple and self-sufficient life.

Please give support and encouragement profusely and praise loudly!

Although the company has been in business for five years, as an operator of the company, we attach great importance to every design case. How to achieve harmony between users and nature is our most important belief.

Understand human nature, A good design lies in being able to listen to the needs of users and propose solutions that are better than the needs.

Create better things and make people live in harmony with nature

This part is a bit extreme, partly we need to get in touch with different people and things and experience different life styles, partly we need to calm down and listen to our own beliefs.

I live in Taiwan. Our culture must have an influence on our design, especially Zen. The blank space is a kind of poetic space. In Taiwan, customers like to direct designers to make some non-professional suggestions. This part is Where Taiwan's design environment needs to be worked harder.

It is the wisest choice to have a positive attitude and passionate partner

Chair,table,lamp,teapot and bookshelf

Don’t be afraid to try and experience different life experiences

The good influence is that as a designer, I know how to use space aesthetics better than the average person, while the bad influence is that I can't get used to things that are not beautiful.

Less is more

Hand drawing is an important foundation for designer

Hand drawing, AutoCad 3Dmax,Occasionally read the master's work for inspiration

Make a schedule and execute it step by step

Not necessarily, it needs to be assessed on the merits of each case

What is the central idea of the design? Does it meet the needs of customers?
