FS: What is the main principle, idea and inspiration behind your design?
ML: Moms and dads will vividly recall the moment when their child first pipes up with an insight that leaves them breathless. Exactly that occurred while Pone Architecture design director Ming Leung was playing with her 4-year-old daughter at home in Guangzhou, China. “When bubbles meet the ceiling, why do they burst?” the girl asked as she watched soap bubbles float upward. “Why doesn’t the ceiling burst?”
FS: What has been your main focus in designing this work? Especially what did you want to achieve?
ML: HELE International Art Center. Wuhan Hele International Art Center, Wuhan, founded by China Poly Education, is an art institution for children aged 4-12. In the earlier stage of the project, the owner of the project proposed 3 key demands: 1. The Art Center should not feature childlike fun. Instead, it should establish an image of professional education institution. 2. The design of the interior space should based on the feelings of children, which is different from the constrained and rigid style of traditional teaching environment. 3. The Art Center itself should be a space of art in the city.
FS: How long did it take you to design this particular concept?
ML: Three months
FS: Thank you for providing us with this opportunity to interview you.
