DESIGN TRUST: Critically Homemade

Design Trust Decade Talks also brought together fo

Design Trust Decade Talks also brought together former student members of Rem Koolhaas from 1990s: Kate Orff, Nancy Lin, Stephanie Smith, Bernard Chang, Mihai Craciun, Yuyang Liu from the world-renowned 1996 Project on the City team and their seminal publication on the Pearl River Delta region, who are all today leading designers and scholars, to share how the experience of Project on the City has impacted their career paths, and their reflection on the shift from the Pearl River Delta to the Greater Bay Area, which marked their first time reunion in 30 years with Rem Koolhaas together as a group in Hong Kong, as part of Design Trust Decade Talks to launch Design Trust Futures Studio Greater Bay Area programme and Design Trialogues. Design Trust Futures Studio Greater Bay Area programme will create future synergies with the Project on the City initiative to collectively map the future of the region within an international context.

2024信言十年論壇召集了1990年代Rem Koolhaas帶領的學生團隊：Kate Orff、林芳慧、Stephanie Smith、鄭逸雅、Mihai Craciun、劉宇揚。他們是世界知名的哈佛GSD「城市計劃」（Project on the City）1996年團隊和有關珠江三角洲地區的重要出版物的作者，現在都是設計師和學者界的領軍人物。他們共同分享了「城市計劃」是如何影響他們各自的事業，已經他們對於該地區由珠三角到大灣區變更的回顧。這也是他們三十年來首度在香港與Rem重逢，並一同在信言十年論壇於我們啟動設計三言堂及「未•共研社」大灣區計畫。「未•共研社」大灣區計畫未來將與「城市計劃」一起發揮協同效應，共同描繪國際背景下的大灣區未來。

Design Trust Feature Grant recipient (2019) Zhang

Design Trust Feature Grant recipient (2019) Zhang Lei shared at Design Trust Decade Talks 2024 on his journey of exploring how the future of Chinese design could be shaped by the rich and multilayered landscape of traditional craftsmanship and material culture across China. He shared particularly on the Sun Mao exhibition in 2019 supported by Design Trust:“ At that time, we spent one year to travel around the whole China to find three categories of joints, first is architecture, second is furniture, and third is toy and small objects.” The team collected a lot of smart Chinese wood joints, and then made them to 3D models and to build up 3D printed models showing hundreds of studies.

2019信言設計大使專題資助計劃成功申請人張雷在2024信言十年論壇中分享了他對中國傳統工藝和物質文化的豐富和多層次景觀如何塑造中國設計的未來的探索。他特別分享了2019年由信言設計大使支持的榫卯展覽：那時候，我們花了１年時間遊遍整個中國找尋３種木榫，一種是建築結構，第二種是傢俱，第三種是玩具和小物件。研究團隊收集了許多中國的木質節點，既精巧又高超的木質節點。然後把它們做成3D模型，再以3D打印出來來展示上百個研究。請即前往位於主頁的鏈接觀看2024信言十年論壇的完整影片。

Sharing on her Dancing Phoenix feature carpet site

Sharing on her Dancing Phoenix feature carpet sited at Haw Par Mansion for Design Trust Futures Studio 2019 Heritage is Innovation, Design Trust Decade Talks 2024 panel speaker Elaine Yan Ling Ng (Design Trust Feature Grant recipient in 2015, Design Trust Futures Studio 2019 & 2022 designer mentee): “Traditionally, carpets would only use three to five types of yarns. In this particular occasion, we have actually used 72 combinations of different 11 yarns … I want to bring a really animated feeling to the carpet. The materials are thermochromic, light responsive, heat responsive. When people walk through it every time, they have a new way of experiencing the space.” Watch the full Design Trialogues Launch: Design Trust Decade Talks 2024 documentary now via link in bio.

2024信言十年論壇的專題演講嘉賓吳燕玲（2015信言設計大使專題資助計劃成功申請人，2019及2022「未•共研社」設計師學員）分享了她為2019「未•共研社」：創新的文化遺產所設計，位於虎豹別墅的「鳳凰舞動」特色地氈的創作過程：傳統上，地氈只會使用三到五種紗線，而在這個特別的項目裡，我們實際上採用了 72 種組合，用了 11種不同的紗線......所以每當人們走過它時，都會有新的空間體驗，可以體會到我們花了很多時間。請即前往位於主頁的鏈接觀看2024信言十年論壇的完整影片。
