China Architecture Design and Research Institute Zhuo Bang Decoration / Gao Zhiqiang Design Studio Design Director Gao Zhiqiang


Like fashion, like watches, like cars, like pens, like tea, like fitness, no smoking, no drinking, starting a day of work with 30 minutes of calligraphy every day, starting at 36 years old, working hours, June 4th, "putting Slow rhythm and healthy life are the key words of Gao Zhiqiang's life in recent years. With the warmth of the Golden Hall Award and the question of the design circle, the reporter and Gao Zhiqiang started an interview with a nearly chattering conversation.


Golden Hall Award - is an award, but also a design event


To say that the most exciting thing in the design world in 2011, the non-Golden Hall Awards are none other than. The masters of all walks of life gathered in Guangzhou, and the award ceremony was more like a big gathering of designers. "Old friends who can't see you at once can see enough at one time, and they are more excited than winning the prize."


Just two years of the Golden Church Award, why is it the designer's most popular design competition? And through the list of winners, there are many names such as Dai Kun, Chen Yaoguang, Yang Bangsheng, Qiu Deguang... these are the names in the interior design industry. “Because the Golden Hall Award is the most public welfare award in the country so far.”


It has only been held for two sessions, but the Golden Hall Award, formerly known as the "Golden Sheep Award", is particularly eye-catching because of its high authority. "Although it has a certain inheritance with the Golden Sheep Award, it is a brand new way. The slogan of the Golden Hall Award is 'design creates value' and requires a high input-output ratio of the work. This is a very important indicator. So netizens, owners The scores account for a high proportion, which is not available in other competitions. Secondly, this is not just a feast for designers to entertain themselves. It connects the owners-designers-materials partners in a good way. Showcasing outstanding designers in the industry, it also directly builds a good communication platform for designers and materials suppliers," Gao Zhiqiang said.


Choose and give up


"Everyone's time is the same, giving more time for work, less for the family, more for entertainment, less for yourself. So you have to know what you want, health, family. Everything is important, and once you lose it, you won’t be back."


But money and career can be big or small, but more or less, and it does not affect happiness. First, invest time in health and family happiness, and the rest of the time will take care of your career. Gao Zhiqiang arranged the order for these: health, family, friends, career.


"The first three items are the foundation, the latter is the result, and the foundation is good." What do you think?"


Don't let design education and society be out of touch


Recently, a Weibo has aroused the resonance of many entrepreneurial designers: there are too many schools to teach and design, and there are too few students to design. “Design graduates who have just entered the society need a long training period to be able to design.”

Nowadays, universities and colleges have opened interior design majors. There is a shortage of teachers, outdated teaching content, too short student learning time, too weak foundation, too few practical opportunities, and fierce competition. After graduation, I think about making money and interviewing many children. Both the quality of learning and the ideals are far-reaching.

For the newly graduated student, Gao Zhiqiang will first ask him if he can persist in the basics of five years of work, and live a good life ten years later? Give them a Chinese medicine class first: look-smoke-question-cut. That is, the ability to observe, communicate, listen, and find problems to solve problems. Observe the owner, observe the project, ask more questions and find clues from the answers, find the problem and solve the problem. “Design is ultimately for people and users. Whether it is a hotel, an office building, a shopping mall or a home, different people decide on different functions and needs. It makes sense to design people as research objects.”


When he did not graduate, he drove a second-hand Cherokee street. Gao Zhiqiang described his student days as "making money relatively easy." It was also young and vigorous, and the project was screwed up. These bumps and good explanations explain why Gao Zhiqiang’s body has a deep sense of strength. The calligraphy and paintings in the office and the various books on the wall tell the reporter that this design director, who always has a smirk, is still a person who loves to ponder.
