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 suzhou, jiangsu province, China. Our country has a long history, of course, there will also be a lot of cultural heritage. Such as suzhou gardens, such as zen tea ceremony, and rich Chinese characteristics of the ancient architecture... Their common feature is that in this field, there are different elephants representing different meanings. For example, in suzhou gardens, water symbolizes wealth, and in the tea ceremony, purple sand golden toad symbolizes wealth. In ancient Chinese buildings, lions and auspicious beasts are carved on the ridge to symbolize wealth and wealth. Just this is the same with the design, each element is like the language in the design, so we have inherited the ancient design through osmosis, a set of mature techniques is beneficial to our design, no one knows us better than us; However, as The Times are changing and the market is expanding, it is obvious that this routine cannot satisfy everyone's aesthetic and needs. So we need to keep pace with The Times and not be bound by tradition.
