In-depth analysis of design by design gurus
Zhang Zhenbin, founder of Embroidery Needle Art Design Co., LTD., delivered a speech titled "Memory of Taste." He believes that the design should be more integrated into the traditional aesthetic "taste", so that the space is full of humanistic atmosphere. His work, Guosheng Academy, is mainly inspired by Ming Dynasty painter Wen Zhengming's Song Water Flowing With Wine. The interior furnishings use tea, porcelain, wood to increase the sense of hierarchy of space, so that it is more rich in traditional cultural atmosphere. The walls are decorated with light green tiles to create the poetry of ink painting. He believes that design is more important to deal with the relationship among space, life and people, find the balance point of design, and meet people's spiritual pursuit.
Shi Nanqiao, an architect from Taiwan, shared his ideas about design in a discussion titled "The Beauty of Dining". He boils it down to dealing with the "three Cs" : space, style, skill. For space, the design of scale, proportion and final presentation must be in line with the ideal standards. Only in this way can we choose a more suitable style and create works with artistic taste. Space and style ultimately depend on technique. Only find the balance between the three, the artistic beauty of space catering design can become reality.
Geng Zhiguo, founder of OFA Flight Design Consulting, talked about the relationship between design and lighting, space shape and music. Peacock feathers are applied to the background wall of a luxury hotel to turn the lights from below, making the feathers more layered. Hotel corridor, changing shape to break the monotony, with flowing music, making the space full of dynamic. He shapes space through design, but in turn the memories of space shape his life.
The collision between Chinese dining table and aesthetic art
At the forum, three design gurus and representatives of Jinan's local design and catering industries discussed the topic of Chinese dining table and aesthetic art. They extend from the attribute function and aesthetic function of the table to the emotional level, and interpret from the perspectives of Chinese traditional culture "New Year's Eve dinner" "harmony" and "perfection". The design industry and the catering industry also had an in-depth communication, filling the communication gap between the two fields.
CADT China (Jinan) International Catering Space Design Experience Conference is a platform for designers to communicate advanced design concepts and promote the progress of domestic architectural design. Next, Huannai will spare no effort to promote the conference and make its own contribution to the development of Chinese architectural design.
