GX: I am a commercial space designer. So I pursue fashion theme in space. There is no specific style definition for the fashionable elements in the space. In daily life, I still use computer renderings. I believe that China's business space can be analyzed and thought from the perspective of development, accurately grasp the market positioning, guide the design with business sense, and achieve the best combination of business concept and design concept.
FS: Which emotions do you feel when designing?
GX: "Peace" do yourself. Be a balance - keeping person, balance your family, balance your team work, and balance your professional skills. Do everything well on the basis of "maintenance" and seize the opportunity in the development. Believe that strict with oneself can get harvest, far more than the predetermined plan brings motivation and achievement. Now, I can't assert my future changes, but I'm sure that I will continue to open up new ideas with my team in the field of design, and produce more outstanding works that will stand out and conform to the market economy in the organic combination of design and cultural characteristics.

FS: What is your growth path? What are your future plans? What is your dream design project?
GX: I don't forget my heart and the ability of life to become an excellent designer. Interior designers may need more exposure. Beautiful things need designers to display in space furnishings. The masters who are masters of details are my goals.If I have more energy, I want to design more furniture, Chinese mahogany furniture, and the design of lamps and lanterns. I think the soul of the space is furnishings and lamps.
