About Essence by Lulu Cheng

Lulu Cheng is a female architect who believes that architecture is the container of life, the interface of space, and the human being is the subject of space. With each case wishing to explore the dialogue between the virtual "empty" and the real "space", the intention is to make a balance between the "empty"_the leave blank, the flexibility and the "space" _the function, the daily life. Then combine nature and life aesthetics to provide owners with a new attitude towards life. Also by the configuration of the space, let the wind flow in it, let the light and shadow change with time, and make the interior full of natural expression.

Interview with Essence by Lulu Cheng

Could you please tell us more about your art and design background? What made you become an artist/designer? Have you always wanted to be a designer?
I have loved to observe space as well as decorate my room since my childhood. I studied in architectural design and have become an architect. After that, I found myself being obsessed with decoration, so I started to work as an interior designer.
Can you tell us more about your company / design studio?
My company mainly takes charge of residential space designs, in particular detached houses.
How do you think the "design field" is evolving? What is the future of design?
Designs should evolve toward nature, which means that future designs should combine with nature.
Where does the design inspiration for your works come from? How do you feed your creativity? What are your sources of inspirations?
It is observations for life and people as well as travel in various countries that inspire me with ideas.
How would you describe your design style? What made you explore more this style and what are the main characteristics of your style? What's your approach to design?
My designs are about creating earthy and elastic space by using harmless materials.
Where do you live? Do you feel the cultural heritage of your country affects your designs? What are the pros and cons during designing as a result of living in your country?
I live in Taiwan which is also where I born. What influence me the most is the traditional building materials in my country.
Could you please share some pearls of wisdom for young designers? What are your suggestions to young, up and coming designers?
A designer should have deep love for the career and fall in love with it for a lifetime.
Designing can sometimes be a really time consuming task, how do you manage your time?
I manage my time by planning a timetable and set a deadline for myself.
What was your most important job experience?
Working in a construction company was an important experience for me.
What are your future plans? What is next for you?
I hope I can do both construction and interior design. To put it in other words, I will like to work as architect and interior designer in the same project.
Do you have any works-in-progress being designed that you would like to talk about?
There is a special case currently which is about introducing a greenway to the entrance in order to redefine circulation.
