"This series of projects is one slice of our collaboration with the redevelopment of the Deji Plaza. If possible, I would like to showcase and share all things artistic and beautiful with people. However, not all spaces are suitable for this strategy; we must consider the needs of the clients and avoid the occupation of commercial resources due to aesthetic expressions. The restroom, as an ancillary functional space in the mall, does not originally serve any commercial purpose; corridors, bathrooms - these are the gray spaces that are often overlooked in daily life. This gave me the opportunity to make artistic transformations. It is an ideal choice for stylized aesthetics. I hope to give the restroom series projects vitality through sha... More

‘No matter how dramatic of an image I wish to create, I still have to be restrained under the demands of product presentation and functionality. The combination of the consumers’ subtle emotions and behaviors and the unpredictable huge variety of products manipulate my interpretation of the past and future of "YISHION".  However, ultimately, it is necessary to keep a low profile and return to shaping an atmosphere of belief, finding an original inspiration that naturally emerges from the harmonious unity of spatial layout and scene segmentation. I try to start from a continuous visual and emotional experience, and blend the vision and ambition of the brand’s future into the colorful halo of the space, and build a uni... More

‘The presence or absence of vitality in architecture and interiors space depends on whether the designer believes in it. For me, a space should be communicative. In the current era when technological innovation happens weekly, I don't want to replace the emotions I want to express with superficial and noisy programs.  SFAP What I am looking for is a gap where emotions can intervene, and exploration outside the regulations. The washroom is usually a purely functional area, however I wish to create some emotional moments and integrates an informal and dignified experience into the design of Deji Plaza.  SFAP It can be regarded as a courtesy presented by Deji Group and us. The gift of space, whether it is a garden,... More

"In 2008, I was on a study trip to Germany and encountered Anish Kapoor's artwork - Memory, which was then being exhibited. And in subsequent press interviews, I frequently recounted the impact it had on me. The artwork sparked a feeling that then ignited an inner urge in me that inadvertently shaped my initial ambition for design values.  SFAP SFAP SFAP This hazy inspiration has often guided me in my designs to create a sense of atmosphere and spirituality, first as spirit and certain emotions, and then as form and symbolism, with function being properly integrated. SFAP When I received the design assignment for Zhongshuge in Shenzhen last year, I had led the designs for several completed Zhongshuge across China.... More
