"Mr. Wu, two months is too short. Can you extend it a little longer?"
When it came to the question and answer session, a young designer couldn't help but ask first.
Hearing that this was the first question, Wu Hao smiled and shook his head and said: "We set this time after careful consideration. In fact, the originally set time was shorter.
Considering the limited power of some independent designers and individual designers, we extended the time to two months.
Although it is still relatively harsh, it is also a way to test everyone's strength. Creativity does not distinguish between young and old, so the opportunities are the same for every designer. The key is whether you can seize it.
For us, what we want to see is a design that can impress us, make us like it, and move us.
Even if you only come up with a few design sketches, as long as the design is exciting enough and the plan is reasonable and feasible, then this design can completely impress us. As for the shortcomings, we can even help you complete it together.
The premise is that it is exciting enough and able to impress us."
After listening to what he said, there was a commotion below again. Obviously, everyone had different opinions on his answer. Some agreed, some opposed, and some found it ridiculous. But such a rule did make many young designers eager to try it out.
The hope of getting ahead has also given many veteran designers some headaches and a lot of pressure.
This kind of relaxation of not following the routine made many people here suddenly feel the urge to quit.
Zhong Wentao is one of them. His more than 20 years of experience in the design industry has established a certain reputation in the domestic industry. This is indeed a rare opportunity. Whoever wins this project will mean that
There will be one more representative work. This will make a profound mark on both my career and my life.
But the current regulations mean that a large number of young designers will be involved. Among other things, the few young designers in his team who followed him couldn't help but look at their eyes after hearing this regulation.
I became excited.
As a person who has achieved certain results, he can recognize opponents who are similar to him. But if he loses to a novice or one of these people, then how can he come out to mess around in the future.
But this project is really rare. Not to mention the generous remuneration, the influence of this project itself is what many designers dream of.
For people like them, there is no shortage of creativity and ability, but what they just need is a stage that allows them to display their talents. Obviously, this huge stage this time represents more than the reward itself.
While he was thinking, a good young designer he knew was sitting not far away from him and asked: "Mr. Wu, what kind of design can impress you and what are your tendencies or hobbies?"
Haha, not only Wu Hao, everyone here laughed when they heard this. This question is very interesting, and I want to dig out some more information from Wu Hao.
For designers, they are not afraid that the owner will ask for too much, but they will be afraid that the owner will not let you use it freely.
This is just like solving a problem. The more information and conditions you give, the easier it will be to solve the problem. The fewer conditions and information you give, or none at all, then there will be no breakthrough for the problem, and naturally it will be impossible to solve it.
.
In fact, after they learned about this project, they were already collecting relevant information and materials. A very important part of this was the hobbies and interests of Wu Hao and several other senior executives of Haoyu Technology.
Including what colors you like, your personality, hobbies, etc., so as to make some targeted designs.
The so-called user satisfaction means what users like. What kind of design can make users like it must be acceptable to users.
This is what it means to do what you like.
Haha, Wu Hao said with a smile: "I believe that everyone here must have collected a lot about my preferences. However, in order to facilitate everyone's search for inspiration, I can share with you my imagination of this new headquarters."
After hearing what he said, many people took out their mobile phones and cameras again and turned on the recording mode, and some people took out pens and paper, waiting for him to speak.
Wu Hao smiled upon seeing this, gave everyone some time to prepare, and then said: "First of all, the first point must be practicality. No matter how you design, you can't break away from this point, it must be centered on this word.
This is also an important or prerequisite for us to judge your project. No matter how good your design is, if it fails to do so, it will all be eliminated.
As I said before, this is the headquarters of our future life and work, not a testing ground for you. Everything must be centered on us."
Glancing at everyone, he raised two fingers and continued: "Second point, I personally prefer simple and elegant design forms. Things that are too complicated are good-looking, but are time-consuming and labor-intensive, and are easily outdated. And simple and elegant ones
Design has long-lasting vitality.
Of course, I don’t really like the minimalist style in your design. The minimalist style that loses practicality and comfort is putting the cart before the horse.
So I hope it is simple, but also exquisite. Skill in the details seems to be what you designers advocate and pursue.
Although I have a background in science, I still have some understanding of art and design.
So, don’t try to fool me.”
Ha ha ha ha……
After hearing his words, everyone sitting in the audience laughed. This can be regarded as a rumor in the design circle. Design is relatively abstract, and everyone has different hobbies. Therefore, a good designer must know how to fool the other party.
Let the other party like and accept your design.
But while laughing, many people also put away the little bit of luck in their hearts. It seems that Mr. Wu is not that easy to deal with. For designers, the most difficult thing to deal with or the least willing to face is design.
Teachers and people who understand design.
Obviously this young Wu Hao knows how to design, and the requirements he mentioned are precisely the most difficult ones in design.
For designers, the difficult thing is not to add things to the design but to subtract things. The simpler the things, the more skillful a designer can be seen.
The minimalist style was originally a relatively good thing, but it was ruined by many so-called designers with limited and uneven skills. That's why Wu Hao gave these people a warning in advance and told them to take it easy.
After everyone below calmed down, Wu Hao continued: "The third point is the harmonious unity of architecture, man and nature. Our land is adjacent to the Linghu Ecological Wetland Reserve, so how to reduce the damage to the surrounding environment?
I hope everyone can seriously consider it.
Please note that you cannot be environmentally friendly for the sake of environmental protection. I don’t want some people to come up with something that is more meaningful than practical in the name of environmental protection.
