Interview with Yang PENG

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?
My father was a craftsman and my husband is a designer, they subtly influence my design career. Yes, I’ve always wanted to be a designer. Design is just like spiritual opium both for my life and work.
Can you tell us more about your company / design studio?
8C Design is committed to being a maker of elegant space and an advocate of poetic life. The company provides precise design services covering space remodeling, style positioning and interior furnishings. We embark on design journeys with our clients as a collective experience to explore market demands, environment sustainability and design technology with the hope of resonating with our shared positions. We firmly believe that design is problem solving and communication. Meanwhile, from spatial solution point of view, the company emphasizes the balance between aesthetics and practicality.
What is your most favorite design, could you please tell more about it?
My favorite design should give us a feeling of nature, simple, raw and joviality.
What kind of emotions do you feel when your designs are realized?
When I fall in a design mood, nothing can stop me thinking but the closure of project. Sometimes I feel depressed when it finishes, just feel like ending a relationship.
What makes a design successful?
I have no idea how to define the success, winning an award or getting recognition from the public？If so, a considerable client and work-hard team would be indispensable.
When judging a design as good or bad, which aspects do you consider first?
Consider if the presentation of design meets the original purpose.
Where does the design inspiration for your works come from? How do you feed your creativity? What are your sources of inspirations?
Inspiration may happen in anywhere: a trip, a conversation, or even a diner. Live a life in another way to earn much more possibilities in design.
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?
Monochrome could present my design style, as being simple and clear is a challenge thing while process a design. The methodology of design：pose questions, do researches, know background, brief requirements and challenges, come up with ideas, find out the better answer. Mostly we have to circle this methodology if the result is not satisfying.
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 China. The Chinese culture is rich and affects our life and mind indeed. Every culture has its own attribute. No matter whether it positive or not, they all could promote the development of design in country.
How do you work with companies?
I prefer listening to opinions of my companies, learning things from different angles may help me be close to the “answer”.
Can you talk a little about your design process?
Pose questions, do researches, know background, brief requirements and challenges, come up with ideas, find out the better answer. Mostly we have to circle this methodology if the result is not satisfying.
From your perspective, what would you say are some positives and negatives of being a designer?
Million times challenges and Non-stop thinking are both positive as well as negative.
Designing can sometimes be a really time consuming task, how do you manage your time?
Design method helps us to plan out the timetable. However sometimes, balance between work and family should be seriously managed during a task.
How long does it take to design an object from beginning to end?
It is hard to give an accurate length of project. Some could be completed in a year around, and even more took much longer. There are many factors to decide the duration.
What is the most frequently asked question to you, as a designer?
Clients had asked me many questions. But I did not summarize the frequently asked question, which is regular about design and budget; instead, the novel and strange question could intrigue me a lot.
Who are some of your clients?
Honestly, they are rich indeed, and stick to the suitable high-quality life, instead of squandering and flaunting their wealth.
