Mr. Xu Mingxuan, architect in charge of MIXTION.AD Shanghai Mingxuan Architecture Design and Research Office, shared his views on "Independence of Design".

In the era of good works, how to create works that are different from popular forms? How to discover the uniqueness of architecture and space without following the trend? Mr. Xu Mingxuan used his own works as examples to share his insights.

△Sharing by Mr. Xu Mingxuan

Mr. Xu Mingxuan feels that understanding the building itself and the characteristics of the environment, and creating a connection between the building and the building, and between the building and nature, is a way to create independence in design, and can expand the depth and level of the design.

In addition, the language of design needs to be more diversified, and can demonstrate uniqueness through different aspects such as design concepts, lighting design, visual extension, and spatial order.

For residential, he prefers to think about the application of diverse scenarios of space and materials, without limiting the spatial attributes, simplifying the design, and restoring the space to its simplest state.

Giving the design work an independent and complete story will also make the wild ideas more reasonable and make the design stand out. Mr. Xu Mingxuan is good at using lighting and materials to replace the figurative objects as a visual guide, giving the works more mood and artistic sense.

△Sharing by Mr. Zheng Wen

Mr. Zheng Wen, Vice President of China I Ching Association, brought the theme of "Chinese Feng Shui". The I Ching is a collection of traditional Chinese philosophical wisdom, the changing law of everything in the world, has a guiding role in our living environment, and is a discipline that many designers would like to know more about.

Mr. Zheng Wen has been practicing I Ching for more than ten years and has rich practical experience, which he shared with the designers.

Creating a green future together

Create a green future

In the forum session, Mr. Xu Mingxuan, the presiding architect of MIXTION.AD Shanghai Mingxuan Architectural Design and Research Office, Mr. Wu Junyi, the founder of Wu Yichen Architectural Design, Mr. Meng Dechuan, the founder of Suzhou Dechuan Design Office, Mr. Li Fengyu, the founder of BenYou Design, Ms. Li Liang, a senior media person, and Mr. Ji ShaoHua, General Manager of NABO Division, discussed from the perspectives of design, product, and the media on how to practicing the green concept.

They believe that the design of environmental protection should start from "simple, through, meaning", simplify the design of the materials used, more use of natural light, reduce the use of artificial light hours, and fundamentally create energy-saving emission reduction of environmental protection awareness, so that the work, regardless of the size of the works, there are certain environmental protection design into it, so that the many environmental protection design of a small step, converge into a big step towards a green future. A small step in environmental design can be a big step towards a green future.

In their works, they also try to use composite materials instead of natural materials to reduce the demand and emission to the nature; the interior of the space can start from shaping the dynamic line, reducing the air flow, and enhancing the thermal insulation effect of the interior; and at the same time, they delve into the research of the new materials, unlocking the use of it in a variety of scenarios. The most important thing is to have trade-offs for new materials, and must choose the one that suits the customer, and only the one that suits the customer can be sustainable and used in the long term.
