Tell us about your work and name the project of which you're most proud.
We're a professional design studio from America with plenty of fabulous masterpieces around the world. In China, we've participated in many projects in Shanghai, Fujian, Hainan, Taiwan, Hong Kong. We're proud of every project we've worked on.
What projects are currently involved in?
Due to confidentiality agreements, I can't tell you about them. What I can say is that our firm has a good relationship with many well-known real estate developers on Chinese mainland, such as Shimao Group, Huidefeng Group, Longfor Group, Hilton China. We've worked or been running some projects for them.
Describe your design style.
Since we are chasing for an eternal and classical beauty in our design, we don't have a particular design style. We always try to combine different elements in our designs to make everything look comfortable and harmonious. In another word, we create our own style.
What kind of creative design are you good at most?
I can do any kind of design and I actually do not have a preference. Design has no limits.
What does your home mean to you?
First of all, my home should be a work of art; it's a heritage, which can be passed down. Then it is a safe haven, where I can be comfortable and calm. It seems that everything can be controlled. And it should be a perfect place to welcome my relatives and friends. That's why I always insist a one-to-one mode in our design service. Every design should exactly deliver the correct specification to our client.
What do you collect?
Exquisite and rare real cars and model cars - racing cars, roadsters and antique cars.
Where would you like to go most in Shanghai?
Xintiandi pedestrian street -- with that traditional Shanghai building symbol, the shikumen, and modern architecture style. Every time I go to Shanghai, I visit Xintiandi to experience its multi-cultural atmosphere.
What will be the next design trend?
Years ago, people in China didn't pay much attention to design; at that time, expensive meant good design for them. Currently, Chinese like to mix and match minority decorations element or something ancient. I think, in the future, Chinese will appreciate more low-key luxury and that their ideas about design and the home will mature.
