15 May 2022
Since I starting work, mostly engaged in residential interior design. I began to design commercial spaces five years ago. My boss was from the United States, where the culture is very different from that of Taiwan, years of experience working with my American boss inspires me a lot of original ideas.
Having strong feeling in aesthetic in space, I hope I can be a designer and create amazing works. Yes, I've been attracted to anything that has to do with aesthetic in my life since high school, especially architecture and interior design.
The use of materials and the recreation of space.
I was inspired by accumulated experience in life.
When interacting with clients, you will naturally feel the aura presented by them. It’s amazing. I have no idea when I start having this ability, to naturally capture the material and atmosphere suitable for my clients.
Surprisingly, I have the same feeling when choosing building materials, I also feel that the materials are also interacting with me their preferred way to be presented.

When encountering composition in design: A finished product that combines different elements and shapes to take on a new look, it always amazes me every time.

Our plan is to expand our company's business scope to include architectural and visual design, to achieve complete brand building, which help to develop a complete talent cultivation mechanism within the company. Our next step is talent development and cultivation.
Start every design process by thinking and observing.
be careful and patient, willing to listen, patiently communicate, and willing to try.
Think > decision making > empty myself > go to bed. Design is indeed a very time-consuming work, so it can only be integrated into life.
My most commonly used platform is Pinterest. Design trends is very minor when compare with the coordination of material and space attributes, the control of shaping proportion, and the uniqueness of design style.
The coordination of material and space attributes, the control of shaping proportion, and the uniqueness of design style.
I want users to feel happy and relaxed when they enter the space I create. If there is a little surprise, it would be even better. I always know the design is ready by reading the face of the user when looking at the design.
I think it's on the way.
Architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Fallingwater is a house designed by the architect Frank Lloyd Wright in 1935 in the Laurel Highlands of southwest Pennsylvania, about 70 miles southeast of Pittsburgh. It is built partly over a waterfall. I admire the architect’s passion in the importance of interpenetrating exterior and interior spaces and the strong emphasis placed on harmony between man and nature. The boulders and trees of the original terrain are still preserved inside the building. From the appearance of the house, the interior design to all furnitures and even tablewares, all completed by the architect - incredible comprehensive design ability.
I live in Taiwan. Our cultural heritage not so affected to nowadays interior design.
The salary ratio of construction personnel in the field of interior design in Taiwan is not that high, while the technology is very professional, therefore, most of the design ideas has the opportunity to be implemented, which is a good thing for both designers and owners. However, because of this, most designs rely too much on construction workers, and resources of furniture and hardware accessories supply will be relatively lacking.

3 elements makes a design successful: Attentive, patient, persistent.
Attentive: Carefully attending to every detail;
Patient: Think patiently and deal with everything that feels impossible;
Persistent: Stick to the first two elements on every aspect.

Designer is responsible to create order in chaos while inspire imagination in an aesthetic way. Without design and designers, the world would be monotonous and out of order.
The positives are we need to be curious about a lot of things, especially the everlasting passion and execution; the negatives is that being everlasting positive can sometimes be tiring

We've been trapped during pandemic and long for a trip. Thus setting a scene of tropical beach in this city centre restaurant is our biggest goal. Using aged woods and real coral sand, magically bring diners into a vacation experience. This basement restaurant is divided into five zones: lounge in the sand, island beach bar, rock cave dinning, garden cafe and jungle seat box, allowing returned customers to enjoy different atmosphere every time they dine in. Equipped with massive projection screen, sound systems and lighting combination, set the perfect stage for PR events and live parties.
