Work sharing
"Design·Discover the beauty of life" is the design concept that Mr. Chen Jiajun himself and the Yizhi Design Group he founded have always adhered to. This sentence actually talks about the mentality of the designer. The key is "discovery". The so-called "beauty" and "unbeautiful" are the marks of the times. Each era has different aesthetic standards. What designers have to do is to present "beauty" using the language of design, so that people can experience and enjoy the beauty brought by design in the space.

Hu Mansion
"If you ask me, how should people live? I would say, just live according to the nature given by nature, like plants, trees, insects and fish."
——Zhu Guangqian
The four seasons in the south are always unclear, and autumn comes later, which means that in this city located at 113°06' east longitude and 23°02' north latitude, the daytime will be much longer than the nighttime throughout the year. Light has become an additional gift from nature, and has also become the main source of inspiration for Mr. Chen Jiajun’s design work. Living by the light, Hu Mansion.
In this design, Mr. Chen Jiajun attempts to describe the story of home and space as a resident, hoping that by restoring the essence of life, truth and poetry can be revealed inadvertently.
How to make the design conform to nature and integrate into the environment without being artificial is a question that designers often think about. Aesthetics is a very abstract thing, but the appearance of life can be as concrete as a comfortable sofa or an exquisite hanging painting.
“less is more”
While ensuring that the space is full, more attention should be paid to the rendering of the atmosphere, so that a basket of food and a bean soup full of fireworks can become a calm and breezy daily life.
The minimalist shape weakens the visual experience. When sunlight enters the room through the concave-convex structure of the window panes, the scattered light source turns into dots of light spots scattered on the floor, becoming an artistic installation with great appreciation. Let the changes in outdoor light become a natural echo and extension of the indoors.
There is no extra color, the combination of bright lights and simple lines makes the space lighter and more transparent.
The skylight shines through the blinds, and the light and shadow fall on the table. The teacup in the hand is still steaming, and the conversation and laughter can't help but shorten the distance between people.
Whenever the autumn moon grows cinnamon branches and insects dye the mountain scenery, people always follow the inspiration of nature and gather together to share the joy of the harvest.
"The rain hits the autumn and the osmanthus falls, and the fragrance is fragrant in the empty mountain"
Tea inherits the meaning of Zen, and the "Zen" displayed in the tea room is restrained and affectionate.
"Simple in form, complex in heart"
Through careful depiction of details, the seemingly plain and simple appearance secretly weaves a veil of self-restraint for the spirit. The Zen interest is to bring endless reverie to the residents.
The relationship between spaces is very wonderful. They perform their respective responsibilities according to the division of functions and embody harmony and unity while respecting the overall tone.
The brightly colored carpets and childlike modular furniture exude the warmth of "home" against the backdrop of warm light sources.
The study room was transformed from a hollow terrace. The original roof was in a sloped shape. The transformed curved ceiling weakens the sharpness and improves the overall proportion of the space.
Under the bold design of the designer, the bedroom increased the slope of the original ceiling, making the originally tall space more stable and richer in layers, creating a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere for the residents.
People work at sunrise and return at sunset,
Everything follows the laws of nature.
Architecture is based on people’s habits,
There are changes in light and shadow,
The design connects them closely from beginning to end.

City of Future Technology
"In the northwest of Hengqin Island and south of Mangzhou Wetland, a park covering an area of 8.7 hectares is rising. In the distance, the Pearl River runs from Modaomen Waterway to the vast South China Sea, and the tentacles of the park extend further The other side of the ocean."
The work shared below is the Hengqin International Science and Technology Innovation Center, which is the first phase of the open area of the China-Latin America Economic and Trade Cooperation Park. It is different from other commercial projects in that it loses some utilitarianism and is more about the outlook for future technological life; it The user group is practitioners in high-tech industries. This will be an international-level innovative technology community, radiating to the two major regions of Central and Latin America.
01. Transformation of defects and art
In order to realize the perfect expression of function and vision at the same time, the fire escape was conceived as the skeleton of the art installation, and the fire stairwell was enclosed by white metal lines into a transparent and bright box using a wrapping technique.
Visually, the use of lighting and metal texture effectively improves the heaviness of the staircase body, making it an artistic spatial device, and successfully transforms the fire escape, which was originally a construction defect, into a visual addition to the negotiation area. Main highlight.
02. The connection between the present and the future
A scientific and technological innovation ecosystem should be a part of the city that is linked to the entire city. It should be a dialogue field between people and nature, the present and the future.
The hidden light design of the aluminum plate columns outlines the outline of the world blueprint, reflecting the international positioning of the China-Latin America Economic and Trade Cooperation Park, implying that the scientific and technological achievements born here will radiate to all continents.
03. Radiating and extending vision
The acrylic cube symbolizes the combination of regions and means the cooperative relationship with Latin America in the country's "One Belt, One Road" strategic layout. The stacking of squares reveals the image of a future digital city. Walking in abstraction, the tall and straight design running through the sky and the earth makes people feel like they are standing in a future city that is both fake, real, dreamy and illusory.
“Remain curious about the world, strive to discover beauty and create beauty, be tolerant but not blind, specialize but never stop exploring, design is just a method, innovation is our value.”
For more than ten years, design has occupied most of Mr. Chen Jiajun’s life. Just like a fish cannot live without water, his life cannot live without design. He believes that designers should expand their own vision and thinking. Only when they transform the beauty they have experienced, their understanding of life, and their insights into human nature into the ability to solve problems can these experiences be valuable.
Today, as material life continues to enrich, a house is no longer just a shelter, but an ideal living space designed for happiness, carrying the aesthetics of life and emotional belonging. How to meet the spiritual needs of residents and improve their happiness has become the focus of residential designers.
