瓦当图腾

设计在中国源远流长 —— 文 / 商务部外贸司 杨国良 在古代中国,不乏借助设计来表达对美好理念的向往,实现对美好生活的追求。 《诗经》的《閟宫》这样描述,“是断是度、是寻是尺。松桷(方形椽木)有舄,路寝(大厅)孔硕,新庙奕奕”。 1 这首《閟宫》歌颂了鲁僖公 2 建成宗庙的功绩。这几句大致是说,木料丈量、制造、修饰得当,庙堂宽阔而神采奕奕。 可以说,在褒奖优秀设计作品上,这首诗大概创造了中国史上的第一。 从故乡西安西行1800公里是敦煌。那里的莫高窟有富丽堂皇的壁画、栩栩如生的雕塑,呈现了不同时代华夏民族 的服饰、家具等。它们款式各异、色彩绚丽。艺术源于生活,这些艺术品体现了古人对美的认识和追求。 古代中国对设计贡献很大,但并没有停留在器物层面,理论上也是有建树的。墨子是先秦思想家,他提出了“先 质后文”的设计思想,强调对产品本质的重视应大于外表。墨子认为,生产活动应当“节用”和“利天下”,强调产 品功能不可华而不实,应以满足老百姓需求为目的。当下,中国货物贸易正逐步走向集约式发展,重新认识墨子“利 天下而为之”的义利观,我们发现,现在流行的简约风格、绿色理念,似乎有了中国历史的沉淀。 诸子百家之后,古代中国的设计思想并没有停滞不前。西汉《淮南子》提出了“中有本主”、“自有仪表”的思 3 想,认为创作不仅要流露真情实感,还要有独创精神。北齐刘昼进一步提出了“物有美恶,施用用宜”,他认为美丑 是相对的,不能凭借外表来评判优劣,人的感受才是最终标准。这种思想为需求差异的合理性提供了理论依据。 先进理念造就了物质文明的辉煌,也吸引了西方人的关注。明万历年间,意大利人利玛窦(Mathew Ricci)进入中 国,在华居住了28年。在自传 4 中,他表达了对中国轻纺业的赞誉。他惊讶于中国人的餐桌是上了漆的,因此“光泽如 镜、华采悦目”,以至于就餐可以不用台布或餐垫,餐后残物经湿布一擦,餐桌便明亮如初了。甚至,他发现了中国 已经有了“时尚产业”——制扇业。扇子的材料、工艺和修饰虽然各有不同,但在社会各阶层广泛使用。即便秋冬时 节,大庭广众之下不带扇子的人,也会被认为是缺乏风度的。对于江西的瓷器和苏浙的丝绸,利玛窦先生更是不吝赞 誉之辞。

其实,古代中国也是会“拿来主义”的,学习和利用境外设计资源。“胡服骑射”应算是中国历史上“设计服务 1 外包”的典型。战国时期,赵国国力衰弱,不能抵挡北方胡人侵扰,甚至连赢弱的中山国 也能击败赵国军队。于是, 赵武灵王号令全国,引进了胡人的短打服饰,转变民风,最终使赵国最终位列战国七雄。而到了汉唐时期,中国引进 海外产品和服务的例子就不胜枚举了。 3 4 5 2 自古以来,中国制造业对设计有着精益求精的追求,《考工记》、《营造法式》、《长物志》、《天工开物》这 些古代文献记录着其中的点滴,这些都是中国制造业灿烂辉煌的一部分。现在想来,这些历史也应该是当下我们开展 设计创新的精神财富,激励着中国在产品设计上不断精进,激励着“中国创造”不断前行。

设计的守梦人 杭州瑞德设计创始人 李琦 专访 李琦

2013年4月杭州瑞德设计参加了第 113届广交会PDC设计展示活动。期间, 笔者有幸采访了瑞德设计创始人李琦。 李琦在业内被称为“中国工业设计的拓 荒者”,他对设计的理解和执著造就了 瑞德的今天,造就了今天的瑞德人,设 计的守梦人。

毕业于浙江大学工业设计专业 2010年以优异的成绩获得长江商学院(EMBA)工商管理硕士学位 杭州工业设计协会会长兼法人 杭州瑞德设计有限公司创始人、董事长兼总经理 杭州瑞德文创科技有限公司董事长 获得荣誉: ·2012年杭州都市圈新锐文创 青年人物 ·2011年文化新浙商十大新锐奖

·光华龙腾奖第七届(2011)中国 设计业十大杰出青年 ·2009年杭州成长型行业品质品 牌青年领军人物

·2008中国十大卓越策划专家 编辑翻译 / PDC 杨汉东

随着工业设计在中国的发展,中 国设计师的地位如何体现?设计师的 价值在哪里?笔者的这些问题,似乎 能从李琦的口中找到一些答案。

PDC:从设计到商业价值的转换,瑞 德是如何做到的? 李琦:说到我们的转换,瑞德一直在 思考,自己到底能给别人什么。这个 问题其实很实在,既然是一家公司, PDC:您说瑞德人是一群“守梦人”, 应该有自己的商业价值,当然学科的 请问是守什么样的“梦”?瑞德是如 价值是无可厚非的。帮助企业将一件 何“守梦”的? 产品变得更有美感,让一个硬邦邦的 李琦:这个梦就是设计师的尊严。我 东西变得更亲和一点,难道设计只有 这么一点力量而已吗?这一直是在我 觉得我们的设计师要在整个商业链里 脑袋里盘旋的问题。 我也是从一个 获得价值,我们坚守的是这个设计的 简单的设计开始的,从99年瑞德成立, 梦想,要为设计师的尊严去拼搏。尊 到02年我组建第一家实体公司,专门 严不是靠别人施舍的,也不是靠交换 做商业设施,我从来没有停止对设计 得来的,而是要靠打拼得来的。我们 可以设计很多,这说明瑞德做得不错, 的思考:设计链的后面是什么?作为 但这不能说明我们设计的商业价值驾 一个真正的商业探索者,应该要自己 驭得不错;我们现在只是把前面的一 要去实践,不要老是作作战图,要去 小段路铺好了,后面的路会很坎坷, 前线体验一下枪林弹雨背后的残忍和 因为竞争更激烈。设计公司跟商业公 现实。我自己开始做了很多实体上的 司之间的博弈,互相认知的难度会更 事情,我成立的商业设施,从三年多 大,但是机会会更多,成功性会更高。 亏了400多万,到今天我们有1.6个亿 左右的规模。我们自己做品牌,自己 设计公司如何实现自身的商业价 做设计,自己做工业链管理,自己做 值,而不仅仅是为生产企业做嫁衣裳? 渠道,看看我们对品牌的驾驭能力到 三十多年来,众多的设计公司在中国 底有多大。这对我们设计公司来说是 遍地开花,而有几家真正能走出设计 很厚重的土壤,我相信对企业的帮助 本身固有的局限,打破设计和商业之 也是非常大的。这也奠定了我们跟其 间的高墙,实现设计到商业价值的转 他设计公司的不一样,我们更看重设 化?而瑞德恰好是这方面的佼佼者。 计链的放大能力,而不是简单的局限 3

在某一个领域。任何一个商业链的每 一个阶段都有价值的分配性,我们设 计公司有这一分配价值的比例。从整 个商业链来看,要完成后面整个价值 分配的放大,不能缩小,不能平行, 这就非常有意义了。现在我跟很多企 业沟通的时候,更多的是谈企业的设 计战略及其背后的商业战略,虽然这 是一个很复杂的商业链,但这是一件 很有意义的事情。 设计的发展,离不开设计人才的 培养,而人才的培养,需要的不仅仅 是现有设计院校的努力,还需要更多 的外部设计力量和资源的介入。 PDC:“瑞德青蛙概念工场”是如何 帮助年轻的设计学生的? 李琦:一家好的设计公司需要的是好 的设计人才。我们做“瑞德青蛙概念 工场”无非是想促进学校和教育机构 去思考:职业设计机构需要的是什么 样的设计人才?专业设计师要具备什 么样的素质?我们从02年就开始了 “青蛙”概念工场,还有从99年开始 的“瑞德毕业设计邀请赛”,这些都 是要给年轻设计师的一颗种子和更多 的机会,给他们不同的视野和冲击力; 同时也给学校一个思考,什么样的学


生才是优秀的?这样做一个碰撞、一 个沟通、一个交流,这是一件很有意 义的事情。 是市场培养设计公司还是设计公 司引领市场? PDC:您认为工业设计目前在中国的 发展状况如何?中国要如何发展自己 的创造之路? 李琦:中国工业设计的发展其实也差 不多快30年了。设计做到今天这样一 个层面,其实有很多机会,需求也是 爆炸式的,但未来这个产业到底会变 成怎么样,这是一个很大的命题,很 值得我们去思考。部分设计公司会走 向工作室化,他们运用自己极具创意 的灵感和修养,以及灵活的组织模型, 在某个设计领域走得极其深入,他们 跟企业会形成非常好的互动,扮演着 润滑剂的作用,让整个企业变得活跃 起来。这种公司在中国会越来越多, 而且中国大部分的设计文化和设计行 业会活跃起来,主要也是依靠他们来 推动。其他的设计公司会变得更综合, 个别会变得更商业性。什么叫商业性? 就是更注重策略,更注重创新组织的 建立,这不是简单的一个设计的创新, 而是通过多种模式去探索并且跟企业 有更多种商业模式的合作。这种设计 公司也会形成一批。处于这两者之间 的设计公司会因为两极分化而越来越

少,我相信这是中国未来工业设计演 变的一个过程,至于说谁能走下去, 这就要看各家的思路和战略。“中国 制造”有时候虽然不是一个褒义词, 但我还是觉得要坚持“中国制造”。 中国在世界经济体上的地位是不可以 轻易撼动的,因此“中国创造”一定 要植入到制造里面,从某种程度上说, 一定要走两条线路:一是要给劳动者 更多的尊重;二是要加深制造的技术 含量。创造就是要中国转型设计,设 计不是让中国从此没有制造业了,而 是让制造业变得更强大、更精细化、 更专业。 在本届广交会PDC设计展示活动 中,杭州设计公司的抱团参展,成为 了一个亮点。瑞德设计作为杭州参展 设计公司的代表,谈到感受和收获, 李琦流露出无比的兴奋。 PDC:瑞德这次来参加PDC组织的设 计展示以及相关的设计活动,请问您 有什么感想呢?效果跟您的预期有什 么不一样吗? 李琦:应该用两个字来形容,震撼。 一般来说我们的客户相对比较集中, 往往这个行业的客户我们合作就有了 十多年,所以从某种意义上来说我们 并没有跟太多的企业有合作。但是从 这次广交会这么大的一个平台,我感

觉到了中国未来设计的迫切需要,也 同样感觉到中国未来设计市场的巨大, 和身上的责任感。所以感觉用两个字 来形容,叫震撼。说实在话,这次参 加广交会的效果比我预期的要好很多。 我们一直是做设计战略的,以前别人 来找我更多的是要做一个产品的外观 或者某一个具体项目的设计, 但是这 一次有很多人来跟我们了解整体的、 从品牌到产品定位,甚至渠道以及全 方位合作的问题。他们非常迫切需要 解决自己在商业领域里面系统的、整 体的创新和品牌运作,和整体产品转 换的问题。这让我感觉到了我们存在 的价值和目前所具有的能量,在广交 会的平台上会发挥很大的作用。 每每提到设计,李琦就两眼放光, 激情四射,18年的商业历程,没有让 他丢失对设计的热爱、激情和追逐, 反而像陈酿的酒一样,变得更加热烈, 更加深沉。PDC活动期间,李琦和他 的团队用实际行动让我们感受到了设 计从他们身上迸发出的力量,让我们 理解了他们坚守的设计梦想。

设计的商业性,更注重策略,更注重创新组织的建立,这不是简单的一个设计创新, 而是通过多种模式去探索并且跟企业有更多种商业模式的合作。 4

DREAM KEEPERS PDC: R&D team is "Dream keepers ". What kind of dream are you keeping? How do you keep it?

Li Qi: This dream is the dignity of designers. I believe that designers should gain the due value from the entire business chain, which is what we have to fight for and keep as a dream to realize. This dignity is not coming by giving or exchanging, but through fighting. So far R&D is doing quite well in design, but this does not mean that we are also doing well in harnessing the commercial value of our design. What we have done so far is just paving part of the road. We can expect the bumpier roads further ahead because the competitions are getting tougher. The game between design and commercial companies will be more challenging, but at the same time there are more opportunities coming up and more chances of success. PDC: How does R&D convert design

into business value? Li Qi:We have been thinking that what exactly R&D can bring to our customers. This is a really practical question since we are a company, and a company should have its own business value. The power of design should not be limited to just making things look more beautiful or intimate. From the simplest design we made when starting R&D in 1999, to the

design of business facilities when we built up the first entity company in 2002, I never stopped thinking: what should it be behind the design chain? As the real design business explorer, we have to find out the answer from our own experiences in reality. We did do a lot and achieve a scale of 160 million today from a deficit of 4 million 3 years ago. We need to find out how capable we are in handling a design brand by doing our own branding, designing, industrial chain management as well as business channels. These are building up a solid foundation for us as a design company, and I believe it is also helpful to manufacturers. These are making us different from our competitors, because we focus more on developing the value of design chain instead of individual cases of product design. Value is existing in each phase of the business chain and there must be a certain ratio for design companies. It is significant to maximize this value distribution instead of maintaining or even minimizing it in the overall business chain. I prefer more to discuss with manufacturers about design strategies and the business strategies behind them. This matter of business chain is complicated, but it is meaningful.

PDC: How does R&D " Golden Frog Award " help the young Chinese designers?

Li Qi:A good design company needs excellent design talents. The purpose of our "Golden Frog Award" is nothing more than trying to arouse the thinking of schools and educational institutions: what kind of design talents do professional design companies really need? what qualities should professional designers have? We started this award from 2002, aiming to provide young designers with more hopes and opportunities, as well as different visions and impacts. It is actually a very meaningful thing by bringing up this kind of communication and collision of minds.

PDC: How do you think of the development of industrial design in China? How should China develop its creative industry?

Li Qi: There has almost been 30 years for the development of industrial design in China. The level it has been achieving today is bringing many opportunities and exploding demands in this industry. However, this is still a great proposition worth our thinking as where this industry will lead us in the future. Part of the design companies will be operating in the form of studio, which go really deep in certain fields of design with their own creative inspirations and flexible models


瑞德设计高端油烟机图纸

of organization. These forms of design companies can interact really well with and activate manufacturers. There will be more and more such design studios in China, and they will promote most of China's design cultures and design activities. Other design companies will develop more integrated, some even commercialized. What is "commercialized "? Being commercialized is focusing more on strategy and the establishment of innovative organization. This is not simply an innovation of design, but more cooperation with manufacturers through exploring a variety of business models. The remaining design companies will be less and less because of polarization and becoming either of these two categories. I believe this is an evolution process of China's industrial design in the future, and it is the ideas and strategies of each design company that lead their ways of developing. " Made in China" sometimes is not referred to as a term of commendatory, yet we should still stick on "Made in China". The position of China in the world of economy is not easy to be shaken, hence "Created in China" must be based on its manufacture industry.

To some extent, there are two aspects that we must follow to ensure that: one is to give workers more respect; the other is to increase the technical content in manufacturing. By mentioning "Created in China", we are promoting China's transformation of manufacture industry via design. To emphasize the importance of design is not to eliminate China’s manufacture industry, instead, it makes manufacturing more powerful, more sophisticated, and more professional.

PDC It is R&D Design’s first participation in Canton Fair. What do you think of the PDC Design Show and the related activities? Is there any difference from your expectation?

Li Qi: The only word that I can find to express my feeling when taking part in this PDC Design Show is “shocked”. Generally, the customers we are having now are under long-term contracts, and most of them have been cooperating with us for more than 10 years. From this huge platform of Canton Fair, I can sense the strong future demand of Chinese design, and the huge potential of Chinese design 6

market; moreover, I realize more of my obligation as a Chinese designer. To be honest, it is better than expected. We have been concentrating on strategic design. People used to come to us mostly for appearance design or design of certain products. But now during this show, more people than before are beginning to inquire about branding, product positioning, channels and even overall cooperations. They are desired to solve the problems in their business of how to operate a brand systematically and integrally, and the problem of overall product changeovers. This makes me realize the value of being here and the power that we have on this platform of Canton Fair.

中国工业设计的发展时间还不算 很长,相对比较大的企业来说,大部 分的中小企业对于设计的认可、创新 的认识可能还普遍不够深刻。对于这 样的问题,李毅超有自己不同的看法。 他坦言,这个问题对于像洛可可这样 的工业设计的领导者也遇到过很多。 坦率讲,对设计上的认知其实没有那 么大的跨度,国际500强的企业和小

做设计,从设计自己开始 ——洛可可李毅超专访

与上届不同的是,第113届广交 会PDC设计展示增加了不少亮点,其 李毅超

中洛可可设计集团深圳公司的首次参 展就吸引了广大参展商和采购商的驻 足,也为其带来了超乎意料的收获。 洛可可在以电子、家电、照明产品为 主的第一期及以家居礼品为主题的第 二期全面展示洛可可多项国际高水准 的设计作品,同时也展示了洛可可 “大工业设计”、“大品牌设计”两大核 心业务体系的实力。4月18日,笔者 有幸采访了刚刚晋升为洛可可集团副 总裁的李毅超。 7

型企业对设计的认知倒没有这么悬殊, 但有一个很大的误区,并不是对设计 的理解,而是在使用设计的方法上出 现了问题。大型企业都是超前研发的, 并且把设计当成投资,比如说三星。 我们中国人很喜欢做投资,但是很少 做到智力投资。对于智力投资的认知 就是我们国家和其他发达国家的企业 最大的不同。中国的企业把设计变成 了成本,成本越低,价值越低,最后 哭诉说我们的产品比不过别人。三星 要开发一款洗衣机,它不叫概念设计, 叫超前设计,是有明确定位的。五年 以后的洗衣机是什么样子呢?三星找 外部的设计公司去研究服装的材料, 我们今天穿的服装很多都是有棉的成 分,但逐渐地棉的成分越来越少了, 取而代之的是未来超轻纳米和化工材 料,以后我们穿的衣服是不用洗的, 抖一抖、拍一拍就干净了,所以未来 就没有“洗衣”这个功能了。因此三 星这样开发,超前设计出五年以后的 衣柜,通过超声波震荡,把脏东西震 走,然后再把空气导入进来让它变得 更清新,并且有你喜欢的味道。这样 衣服拿出来就可以穿,是干的,甚至 还有熨烫等等这样的功能在里面。这 款产品已经在韩国上市,如果我们就 这么去追随他们的话,我们也会觉得 比他们强,但强在哪呢?强在人工便 宜,强在我们国家资源多,强在我们 勤奋,还强在什么呢?而他们强在智 力,这就是问题。洛可可是怎么跟这 样的企业进行沟通与合作的?李总说, 很简单,我们一般都是从一个很小的 基本的点开始,然后逐渐把它扩大成 战略性的服务,很多都是这样的,我 们帮助的很多企业都是从第一款产品 开始,用了几年的时间培育企业上市。 其实在这些过程中我们已经很成熟了, 我们的客户也很成熟,就看行业对这 个东西的理解,对设计的理解。


李毅超在不到四年的时间里,从 进入洛可可当设计师到现在升为洛可 可集团的副总裁,对于在设计行业里 的人来说,这样的发展速度确实是非 同寻常的,他是怎么做到的?现在来 听听他的答案。李总说:其实你刚刚 已经说到答案了,怎么做到的,就是 做。少说话,多思考,多做事。我当 时进洛可可就是跟很多工业设计师一 样,没有任何区别。洛可可那时候还 没有今天的规模,各方面的条件跟今 天比是差很多的。但是很简单,就是 卯着一股劲,我一定要做出一个好的 设计,并且每天不断更新自己对设计 的理解。从传统的只是做外观,然后 到系统的解决方案,到服务客户,到 帮助设计师成长的各个方面的事情都 觉得与自己有关。因为我是从海尔全 球设计中心出来的,我知道国际战略 是什么,国际上大的设计公司是怎么 做的,企业的设计公司是怎么做的。 我接受了来自海尔的很多好的培养, 所以说有一些基础吧。也没有瞧不起 任何事和任何人,保持低调,保持内 心真正的谦卑,向任何人学习。我没 有风格,也不强调设计师的那个范, 因为人人都是设计师,每个人都会告 诉你从来没有听过的好的东西。我也 想通过这个平台呼吁设计师,首先保 持冷静和谦卑是很重要的,对万事万 物要保持谦卑和敬畏之心,这是东方 文化非常重要的一点,我们要敬畏自 然,因为我们太渺小,但是现在因为 经济发展快了,很多年轻设计师很膨

胀,很浮躁。其实我觉得这些年我的 成长不是因为我跑得快,也不是因为 我聪明,恰恰是因为我笨,喜欢用最 笨的方法开始,所有事情从低位开始 做。然后慢慢地公司给我机会,洛可 可让我第一个开疆拓土,去了深圳。 当时从北到南,什么都没有,就一个 人,带着一个北京的项目经理,然后 就组建团队。从第一个人开始,从装 修公司开始,从购买每一个杯子开始, 从刷马桶开始,这叫设计管理。我们 公司镜子上有两句话是我当时贴上去 的,第一句是“做设计,从设计自己 开始。”设计自己都设计不好,怎么 帮助别人做设计呢?还有一句是“不 要从自己的脑袋里找答案,因为那里 什么都没有。”不要以自我为中心, 不要钻牛角尖,不要一意孤行,不要 强调风格,要放空自己去学习别人, 了解市场,了解客户需求,才能真正 服务好客户。现在这些话都成大家的 名言了,当时我也没想到有这样的结 果。基于这样简单的理念,我们走到 了今天,取得了一个一个的成绩,我 也培养出十几个非常厉害的战略型的、 跨领域的设计师。今年我也开始管理 整个集团的工业设计,我们叫大工业 设计,涵盖的业务体系特别大。在深 圳,我们用了最认真、最负责任、最 大工作量的投入,在前三年能够超越 其他人,能够在香港甚至国际500强 的、跨国的设计集团的挤压下生存下 来并独树一帜,被大家认可,这完全 取决于努力,完全取决于每天思考和

深圳洛可可办公休憩场所 8

不断学习,跟变化的世界学习,跟市 场学习,跟每一个人学习,而不是曲 高和寡地认为我是设计师,我就比谁 高,不是,而是接了地气。我认为洛 可可的发展其实用两个词就可以形容, 叫:脚踏实地,仰望星空。 李总的这两个词,让笔者想起了 洛可可的“上上”品牌,似乎这两者 之间存在着某种内在的联系。李总说, 其实这两者是完全契合的。至于创立 “上上”品牌的内在玄机,他直言说: 因为我们害怕有一天做商业设计做久 了,会迷失。我们为什么要做设计? 我们这些设计师,是要为这个国家, 这个民族的振兴做出贡献的,这是社 会责任,这就是勤奋的源头。中国人 为什么这么勤奋?是因为我们过去富 有过,强大过,我们知道通过勤奋能 找回原来那种强大,靠智慧与创新, 靠的是我们的包容,叫包容创新的民 族文化。我们只不过是这几百年有问 题,所以勤奋一点,这不就起来了嘛? 这才30年的时间,已经不得了了,已 经是第二大经济体了,这就是勤奋带 来的。我们这些知识分子,这些设计 师,包括应用设计的消费者,都应该 为这个国家真正的添砖加瓦,用自己 的能力推动它,这才是我们未来真正 要走的路。我们喊出要肩负重担,自 然会用行动去证明我们能肩负重担, 并不是号称我有什么不同,比别人厉 害。我觉得中国设计应该是百家争鸣, 百花齐放的,而在这个时候有更多的 人肩负历史使命,叫历史责任。我们 现在有很多项目告诉我们,我们是在 肩负历史责任,有些项目是在经过80 年以后才知道好不好的,如果坏就遗 臭万年,如果好就名垂青史。其实今 天的全球设计也不一样,现在是一个 非常开放,整合立体多元的时代,所 以就要求我们用更领先的理念来做设 计,不能盲从,不能踩在别人的脚印 里面还沾沾自喜。 当然了,洛可可集团作为中国工 业设计的领导者,这次由李毅超代表 洛可可深圳公司首次来广交会参加设 计展示以及相关活动,也表明了洛可 可想更多地与国际客户接触、寻找更 多的国外契机的希望。我们也来听听 李总对于这次展示的感想:第一大感 觉是所有人都很匆忙,这是一次淘金


“不要从自己的脑袋里找答案,因为那里什么都没有。”设计师不要以自我为中 心,不要强调风格,要放空自己去学习别人,了解市场,才能真正服务好客户。 之旅,让我们找回一种感觉,我们越 来越被大家认可的价值。然后是今年 的PDC设计展示规模比去年大很多,

不是设计师。年轻设计师毕业以后会 有一段时间觉得自己知道全世界最好 的设计,都会很自负,着急浮躁,容 易被诱惑。浮躁其实我觉得主要是因 而且国内外的设计公司都在这里,这 为年轻,是热血和激情造成的,但是 对我们来说是一次学习的机会,我们 没关系,问问自己是不是真正擅长做 看到了彼此之间的相同点、相似点和 设计,如果不擅长,早一点改行。如 不同点,这是件好事。同时我们也看 果确实喜欢设计,那就要做好准备, 到中国的设计和世界的距离越来越近 看准方向,把握机会,而且这个方向 了,有了PDC这个平台以后,大量的 一定要看得远一点。其实设计师的生 参展商和采购商也在关注设计,关注 中国的原创能力和信息技术整合能力。 命,是慢慢起来的,经过毕业后的三 年,开始有点沉淀,36岁到40岁左右 我们确实能够提供来自中国的服务战 开始转折、转化,然后再提升。设计 略、产品策略,产品开发的实战经验, 师的生命是一直往上走的,到最高点 得到了很多认可,也有很多具体的收 的时候,像礼花一样绽放。希望大家 获并且有实质性的进展。 沉住气,踏实干,看前方,一定要每 李毅超有着资深设计大师的成熟 天学习不懂的东西,一定不要说“我 与沉稳,但这并没有掩盖其80后特有 已经知道什么是最美的,最有范,我 的干劲,笔者从他的言谈之中也感受 是设计师,我有话语权。”相反,我 到了他对于设计、对于事业的激情与 应该比别人更低,我是服务所有人的, 执着,这与当今很多年轻气盛的设计 像水一样的,哪里需要我,我就应该 师形成了非常鲜明的对比,因此笔者 去做什么,而不要给自己定性,要尊 特意探寻了他对于中国年轻设计师特 别是刚毕业的设计学生的忠告和希望。 重消费者,每一个普通人都是设计师, 至少我们每天在设计自己的形象。另 他说:坦率讲,我们的教育并不是很 外一个很重要的就是,设计师是先精 实践的,理论也比较老,而且老师也 9

神富足,才能做到物质富足。设计师 很难做到先物质富足,然后再精神富 足,物质富足以后就不会做设计了。 设计师是首先有了精神,有了思想, 有了能力,有了很多对社会科学、自 然科学的理解,然后又可以融会贯通 的时候,才会慢慢产生社会价值,从 而有了物质的收获,这是一个过程。 设计师关键在于扎得稳,不要乱跳, 实际上很少设计师是靠来来回回蹦出 成果的,未来中国也不会提供这样的 条件去蹦。工业设计师,一旦选择这 个行业就扎实地干下去,沉住气,等 到自己36岁第一次成长,如果没有到, 千万不要轻言放弃。


working hard and updating my understanding of design everyday. I did almost every job in the company, considering which as my own duty, from appearance design, systematic solutions, client service to designer development assistance, etc. I used to work in Haier Global Design Center, from where I had received good trainings and learnt about international strategies and how design functions in the famous design companies

DEsIGn BEGIns FrOM sELF-DEsIGn PDC: The development of industrial design is still in its early stage in China, and most of China's small and medium-sized enterprises are still impercipient of the importance of design and creativity. What are your opinions on this and how do you communicate with this kind of customers?

Michael Lee: In fact, we have encountered a lot of such problems. Frankly speaking, the understanding towards design itself does not differ as much as we think between the international top 500 enterprises and the small and medium-sized companies; however, there are big misunderstandings towards the methods of applying design during the process of production. Big enterprises such as Samsung are doing their R&D basing on long term planning and taking design as an investment while most Chinese enterprises are considering design as costing and trying to reduce it as much as possible during production. For example, if Samsung is to develop a new washing machine, it has to be a machine that catches up with the technology like 5 years later. Keeping in mind that there may not be any washing machine that still requires "washing with water " anymore, the model of that designing should be something like a wardrobe with the function of cleaning

via supersonic waves. This is an intellectual investment. Chinese people also like investing, but rarely invest in intelligence, and that is the difference we are talking about. The only advantage we have is that we have more resources, and we are more hard-working, but not that we are richer in intelligence. When cooperating with these Chinese enterprises, we simply begin from a basic point with the very first product, and then gradually extend it to the strategic level, even help them to go public within a few years. We are experienced in this practice, and our customers are mature as well. After all, everything is depending on the understanding of design in different industries.

PDC: It took you only less than 4 years to be promoted as the Vice President of LKK Design from an industrial designer. What is your secret? Michael Lee: Less talk, more thinking and working. This is what I have been doing all these years. I was no difference from any other industrial designers in the company when I first joined LKK Design. Compared to today, LKK Design was small in scale and with poor conditions at that time. The only way to make progress was to keep 10

and enterprises. I always respect everything and everyone, keep a low profile and maintain inner true humility to learn from every people around. I don't emphasize the " style " of being a designer, because everyone can be a designer and be able to bring up good ideas that you never heard before. Keeping humble is very important to designers, especially in this fast developing society today. I have been growing fast these years not because I am clever, on the contrary, it is because I am clumsy so I always start learning and working from the foundational level. With the trust from the company, I set up our first branch in Shenzhen, beginning from every detail of forming the team and decorating the office, etc. There are two sentences which I sticked on the mirror in our office. One is "design starts from self-design" . The other is "don't try to seek answers from your own brain, because there is nothing in there". They have become the mottos of our staff. We must not be self-centered and go our own way. We must learn from the market, understand the requirements of customers and deliver the best service. Based on these concepts and our responsibility and hard work, we are growing rapidly and making a lot of achievements in Shenzhen branch; and I am beginning to take charge of the whole industrial design of LKK group. I think LKK's development can be described as "down to earth and full of dreams ".

PDC: Do these concepts tally with the design ideas of LKK's other brand "Shangshang "?

Michael Lee: Yes, completely. The reason why we develop this brand is because we worry to get lost after many years of operation of commercial design. Our designers have to make contributions to the nation, which is our social responsibility. Why do we have to work so hard? Because our country used to be rich and strong, and we know that this prosper can be realized


设计理念 DESIGN IDEAS

last year with both domestic and foreign design companies present. This is a great opportunity of learning to us as we can see the similarities and differences among each other. Chinese design is getting closer to the world. Via PDC, more Chinese exhibitors and international buyers are beginning to pay attention to Chinese design, creativity and the integrating capacity of information and technology. Our experiences of service strategies, product strategies and product development have been well acknowledged, and we are also making substantial progress.

again through our hard work, intelligence and creativity. This has been proved during the last 30 years of development as China has become the second largest economic power of the world. As designers, we have to shoulder this responsibility and promote our country's further development through action. In my opinion, design in China and the world has entered a time of openness, integration and competition, so besides taking responsibilities, we will have to design with latest leading concepts instead of following others' footprints blindly.

PDC: What's your hope and advice to Chinese young designers?

Michael Lee: Frankly speaking, our education is not very practical, the theory is relatively old, and most teachers themselves are not designers. There is a period of time when the graduating young designers are very conceited, anxious and easy to be tempted. They need to ask themselves whether design is really what they want as a career of life. If the answer is no, quit early. If yes, pick the right direction and get well prepared before the opportunities come, and they have to look further ahead in that direction. The value of a designer is supposed to be increasing with age until it reaches the highest and glorious point. It begins to deposit after 3 years since

graduation, then transform and upgrade gradually around the age of 36. So young designers should keep calm and steady, and keep looking ahead. Keeping in mind that they are service providers, so they have to keep a low profile and respect their customers. Another very important point is, the richness of a designer should be first in spirit, then in material. It would be difficult the other way around, because a wealthy designer in material may not need to make designing as a career anymore. Designer's value comes first from his spirit, concepts, ability and his understanding towards society and nature. Then they start to harvest in material life when all these spiritual aspects begin to generate societal values. This is a common process for the growth of every designer, so I don't suggest young designers to keep changing their careers, w h i c h i s r e a l l y d i ffi c u l t t o m a k e achievements, instead they should hold their horses in the direction they have chosen until they reach the first growth at the age of around 36. Never give up so easily.

PDC: How does PDC impress you since this is your first participation in Canton Fair? Michael Lee: This is a journey of gold washing and everybody is rather busy here, and we feel that our value is getting recognized by everyone. The scale of PDC design show this time is much bigger than 11

叶智荣专访

中国创造,叶智荣设计 如果中国要打造工业设计强国的话,一定要提升企业的认知,因 为企业是设计的买家。没有好的买家,再优秀的设计师也无法实 现其价值。 叶智荣 国际知名产品设计师,原香港设 计师协会主席。二十几年来他设计过 的产品超过1000 件,拥有国际设计及 发明专利数十项。为了进一步推动香 港的产品设计,他以 “ALANYIP ” 作为品牌发行了一系列时尚产品。他 的设计得奖无数,曾获荷兰、英国、 日本、韩国、中国邀请展览及收藏于 多家中外知名博物馆及书刊。

广交会设计主题论坛是广交会 “设计提升贸易”系列活动之一,分 为潮流趋势类、设计创新类两大主题 板块,主要针对相关行业,探讨和分 享创新理念和成功范例,分析和预测 流行趋势,推广以设计促贸易、以设 计促升级的成功经验。演讲嘉宾有全 球闻名的流行趋势权威,也有既多次 获得国际设计大奖,又成功经营设计 公司的资深人士。第113届广交会期 间,笔者采访了论坛演讲嘉宾之一叶 智荣先生,有幸分享了其对于香港创 12

时间,香港的设计师最有发挥的空间。 当时香港的工厂发展起来了,有工厂 就会有代工,因此开始有设计师帮他 们研发自己的产品,做ODM。设计的 附加值在当时来说还是蛮高的,这个 对香港的企业帮助很大。后来出现了 另外一个潮—北移。因为香港寸土寸 金,工资贵,所以工厂要迁移。经过 大概20年的迁移,现在香港90%的工 厂在珠三角地区。我的感觉是,工业 设计是依附工业而生存的,如果没有 工业,工业设计就无从谈起。随着香 港的工业经济北移到中国大陆,中国 的工业设计跟中国工厂的庞大增长有 着紧密的关系,中国的工业设计师可 以依靠这种制造业的土壤成长起来。 反观香港,现在已经没有这种优势了。 我们很多人都钟情于香港产品, 然而,因为地域以及交通等关系,我 们对香港的设计风格和特点其实有很 多迷惑,借此机会,笔者从叶智荣的 口中找到了答案:很多人所说的“香 港味”其实是没有的,真正的香港设 计风格其实就是一种国际风格,反映 着国际上的设计潮流。香港的设计师 完全是国际化的,十分具有国际领域


设计理念 DESIGN IDEAS

的感觉,他们很容易从产品的形状、 材质、颜色等判断出这些产品是来自 哪些不同的国家。而且香港的商业模 式是跟国际接轨的,因此我们要进入 中国大陆市场会觉得水土不服,需要 重新进行磨合。 工业设计在中国发展了三十多年, 与设计强国相比,我们才刚起步,需 要吸取经验与教训。叶智荣结合了自 己在中国大陆发展的经验表明自己的 看法:如果中国要打造工业设计强国, 必须提升企业的认知。企业是设计的 买家,没有好的买家,再优秀的设计 师也无法实现其价值。全世界的设计 师都能做出好的设计,但现在要提升 的不只是设计师的力量,而是买家、 决策者和用户怎么去使用这些设计, 这是一个非常重要的环节。目前这些 概念,中国很多企业家还不懂。广交 会PDC对中国的企业来说是一个很好 的推广与提升的平台,可以让企业了 解我们不是卖服务的,而是引导他们 怎么去用好设计,怎么通过设计将利

益最大化。 从“中国制造”到“中国创造” 是很大的一步,总理也说了,不改革 就是死路一条。我看到了勇气,但真 的是不容易。可喜的是,中国现在有 很多新一代的受过教育的老板、海归 等使用设计的速度加快了,版权保护 方面的意识也比以前高了很多。 据笔者了解,叶智荣为了在中国 大陆发展设计事业,曾经放弃了其荷 兰的移民。到底是什么原因让他对在 中国大陆的设计事业如此执着?他说: 我的经验给了我一个梦想。我年轻的 时候在理工大学拿了奖学金去美国加 州青蛙设计进行了4个月的学习。当 时青蛙设计是世界上最高级别的工业 设计公司,它的客户都是世界上的顶 级品牌,包括了苹果、耐克、LV等等。 青蛙设计给这些品牌提供的包年设计 服务在当时来说是非常少有的,我回 到香港后,甚至到了荷兰,都没有再 接触到这种包年的设计服务。直到 2006年,我跟广东的生命动力公司开

始了这种包年设计的服务关系,帮助 其做按摩椅的设计。另外还有一个非 常好的经验,就是跟李宁公司的合作, 他们主动要求跟我从2006年开始一直 到2009年进行这种包年设计服务的合 作。李宁公司这个例子是非常有意义 的,所以我在4年半前开始进入中国 大陆市场,在深圳开设了我的工作室。 中国很多设计公司是做规模,而 且规模做得很大。相反,叶智荣偶像 是法国画家莫内,他的梦想就是,在 这个创意的年代,也能像莫内那样享 受到自己应有的回报,不过他的作品 不是画,而是工业设计。他在做他的 名,中国的设计,叶智荣的名。

MADE IN CHINA, DESIGNED BY ALAN YIP PDC: What is the basic situation of Hong Kong's design industry? Alan Yip: Industrial design began much earlier in Hong Kong than in Mainland China. There has almost been 40 years since industrial design was brought to Hong Kong from U.K., which has been a part of history. Hong Kong used to have a great number of factories, which we called "shanzhai" factories at that time, meaning the small factories located on mountains, something like family factories or workshops. Then these factories moved to Kwai Chung, Kwun Tong, Sha Tin and Chai Wan, which are industrial districts. Under such industrial background, Hong Kong designers were growing up and most of them were cultivated by the Hong Kong Polytechnic University and Hong Kong Institute of Vocational Education. My feeling is that Hong Kong designers were having the most space of development during the 20 years after 1980. In that period, factories in Hong Kong were developing and many of them were turning from OEM to ODM by asking designers to help with their own designs and projects. This helped a lot in the development of both designers and the factories because the added value of design was pretty high at that time. Afterwards, there came another trend of moving factories northwards due to the small land area and high costs in Hong Kong. After 20 years of migrating, 90% of Hong Kong's factories today are in the Pearl River Delta. From my perspective, industrial design relies on manufacturing industry, without which the industrial design would be out of the question. Chinese industrial design is developing along with the migration of manufacturing industry from Hong Kong to the south of Mainland China. In this circumstance, the Chinese designers have been growing. Looking back to Hong Kong today, this advantage of industry does not exist any more.

PDC: What are the characteristics of Hong Kong design? Alan Yip: A lot of people are talking about "Hong Kong Style", but as a matter of fact, Hong Kong does not have her own styles. Hong Kong design is actually representing international styles, which is reflecting the international design trends. Hong Kong designers are completely cosmopolitan with international tastes of design. They can easily tell the design preferences of different countries from the shapes, materials and colors, etc. of the products.The business modes in Hong Kong are internationalized, so we will have to adapt to the new market and adjust accordingly when entering Mainland China. PDC: What do you think are the key factors of the development of industrial design in China? Alan Yip: In my opinion, if China is to become a power of industrial design, the awareness of enterprises towards design has to be improved because they are the buyers of design. No outstanding designers can achieve their value without sensible buyers. Actually, a good design can be accomplished by any designer from all over the world, but the key is where and how this good design would be placed or used by buyers, decision makers and end users. This is very essential, but unfortunately, most Chinese entrepreneurs are still not aware of it. PDC is an efficient platform to Chinese manufacturers for their promotion and upgrading, by guiding them how to make good use of design and how to maximize the benefits through design. It is a big leap from "Made in China" to "Created in China" and it is really not easy. However, the good news is that a lot of highly educated executives and those who have overseas educational backgrounds today have better awareness of design and copyright protection than before. 14

叶智荣设 计作品

PDC: How did you come and set up your business in Mainland China? Alan Yip: My experiences had given me a dream. When I was young, I got an opportunity to study at Frog Design in California, USA for 4 months with a scholarship from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Frog Design is an industrial design company of the world's highest level, whose customers are the world's top brands including Apple, Nike, LV and so on. Frog Design was cooperating with those top brands under annual contracts, which was pretty rare in design service at that time. In 2006, I began cooperating with Life Power

company in Guangdong China under an annual contract, offering design services for their massage chairs. Another meaningful experience was the cooperation with Li Ning company. They voluntarily requested me to design for them under the contract lasting from 2006 to 2009. Four and a half years later from then, I opened a workshop in Shenzhen and officially entered the market of Mainland China. PDC: What’s your long term target in Mainland China? Most of the Chinese design companies are aiming at enlarging the scale as much as possible. However, my idol is French painter Monet and my dream is to be able to enjoy the rewards of my works in this era of creativity, just as how he deserved his fame in his period. Of course however, my works are industrial designs instead of paintings. The brand I am devoting myself to would be: Made in China, Designed by Alan Yip.


设计理念 DESIGN IDEAS

文 / 周宸宸 第113届广交会PDC青苗设计师

周宸宸,毕业于北京林业大学木 材科学与工程专业,主修家具设计与 制造。之后一直跟随意大利资深设计 师MARCELLO BENNATI先生从事独立设 计事务,学习欧洲现代家具设计理念 及研发方法。2012年初创立独立家具 工作室。

我最近想阐述的一件事情,叫做 专业的设计评估。在生产制造业的各 个方面,包括设计师、媒体、设计平 台及品牌企业,我认为做好一项相对 客观的设计评估工作,对每个方面都 将是有巨大益处的。 这个设计评估的核心,就是要有 一个客观而匹配自己情况的设计价值 观。下面我从家具设计师的角度陈述 这种价值观。 首先将生活中能见到的家具分为 三个半类别:艺术品—设计艺术品— 设计产品—(概念设计品)关于概念 设计品不必细说,与设计产品之间如 同概念车与量产车之间的区别。而艺 术品与设计艺术品,相对设计而言, 更多的注重于创作者本身的思想表达, 不必顾及实用性、舒适性及成本控制。 讨论“设计产品”类别,也就是一个 真正家具产品设计师应当从事的类别。 既然是产品,就有很强的商品属性, 而且是其特性,其余两个半类别都不 具有商品的属性。商品需要物美价廉, 或者要物美价“值”。 我们试想你来选购一把椅子。其

实这把椅子的诞生之初是以一张图纸 来呈现的。图纸看起来就是一张承载 着线条的纸,而线条都是一笔一划绘 出来的,看似仅仅是造型层面的表达。 那么真的仅仅是造型么?仅仅学好美 术画的漂亮就成功么?其实每个人都 能给出答案,家具是实用器,承重、 舒适及结构的合理性都不是靠美学解 决的。这些依靠的是材料、设备及工 艺。而以上的所有决定了综合成本。 如何设计出物美价值的商品?回归到 之前提到的商品属性这个问题上面, 价格,对于产品设计师而言就是控制 成本,是其在“造型”外的一个核心 要素,是中国绝大部分产品设计师缺 乏的能力。 讲到这里我们可以展开图表:

都会对造型产生直接并且决定性的影 响。 然而我们还有非常重要的第三座 大山—“市场”。对于市场,甚至也 对造型部分有很大影响,简单举例来 讲,不同的市场定位:快消品同奢侈 品的造型区别;不同的品牌风格的造 型区别。而决定市场的又可细分到不 同品牌定位下面的不同营销理念,品 牌战略思路以及广告手法等等。那么 这些或多或少的都会影响家具设计师 在设计具体产品时候的思路。并且其 中很大一部分要素也是市场成本投入 的一部分,也直接影响了产品的价格。 那么到此,我仅以目前个人阅历梳理 了家具产品下的各方面要素,可能会 有更多我未提及的方面,会更复杂。

全盘意识下的家具产品设计价值观

上图很明确的表示出影响成本价 格的要素,生产环节主要有两大块: 一是“工时”—消耗的劳动时间;二 是“出材率”—材料成本及浪费成本。 而后对于商品成本影响比较大的还有 运输和售后环节。售后暂对于其他要 素没有直接影响,但运输成本有一部 分可以通过良好的结构设计进行削减, 比如平板化包装等。 谈到此,我们能够理性的看到, 造型并不是孤立存在的,设计者在控 制成本时候所考虑的要素:不同的材 料、不同的结构设计优化、对于运输 的结构优化以及不同制造方式的选择

15

简单而言,这带出了本人观念里 第一个匹配性成功概念。在设计产品 阶段,设计是否成功,是以上所有要 素匹配成功的结果。这就是我想阐述 的设计师角度的设计价值观。对于其 他产业角色而言就是反向理解,用以 上所有细节环节来判断: 1.一件物品是否属于产品设计范畴, 还是艺术品? 2.什么是好的产品设计? 3.同时引出第二个“匹配性”:如何 判断与自己匹配的设计产品? 对于媒体以及平台而言,一定要 建立一个客观公正的设计评估概念,


也并不是口号。好的家具设计师不做 企业不是不会做,但只要同时拥有企 业思维、设计思维的同时才能够宏观 地看待产品。那么一件好的、匹配性 强的家具产品的诞生包含了极其复杂 的过程:前期企业资讯评估、产能调 整、概念设计、工程设计及后期市场 指导等等全方位的判断工作。而企业 要做的,要注重在前期对设计师的挑 选,而不要浪费时间在执行阶段的具 体设计细节上。一名真正杰出的家具 工业设计师,应当是家具企业战略级 别的人物。

16

甚至是对于设计师本身的客观评估后, 才能准确的做到传播与对接。经过专 业评估后的信息互换,才是专业媒体 与平台的价值。对于品牌企业而言, 一方面是依托于这种价值观以及评估 体系来寻找合作的设计师;但更重要 的,通过图表中各个环节对自身企业 也要做设计评估,评估自己的产能、 目标市场、成本承受度以及业态等等。 当企业经历过这些思考之后,才会明 白,好设计师很多,但真正匹配自身 情况的设计师难寻。同时也是侧面向 企业说明,一名杰出的产品设计师, 一定是复合型的,并且也要有能力对 前期对企业做出客观的评估,了解企 业疾苦,了解管理,与市场同步,这

在中国 文 / PDC设计服务合作伙伴 Olga Sismanidou

Olga Sismanidou 是Designlobby设计集团的设计顾问, 该集团总部位于德国柏林,拥有60多家来自德国、意大利、希 腊等的设计公司的共300多名设计师,主要负责在亚洲地区推广 包括来自这些国家在内的欧洲设计,服务亚洲地区需要高品质设 计的客户;同时在欧洲和世界其他地区不断寻找优秀的设计师资 源。所涉及的设计领域包括了产品设计、平面设计、建筑设计、 室内设计、网页应用设计、品牌、艺术与设计管理、包装设计、 摄影、趋势预测、项目管理等。Designlobby.Asia与广交会产 品设计与贸易促进中心(PDC)建立了全面的战略伙伴关系,以便 更好地为中国的生产企业与国外设计师的合作扫除语言和文化差 异带来的障碍,更好地服务中国市场。

7年前,我作为一家欧洲进口公 司的艺术总监和设计师第一次来到中 国;现在,我大部分时间是在中国生 活。根据我为中国企业进行设计工作 的6年经验,我有一些东西与大家分 享。 在过去,中国企业关心得比较多 的是如何降低生产成本,现在有些企 业还是抱有这种观念。市场更新换代 的速度非常快,尤其是来自经济危机、 生产和运营成本增加、人民币升值以 及来自其他国家的竞争等等压力,使 得这些企业对提升产品附加值的意识 越来越强。设计、创新、科技、品质、 品牌和沟通,这些都是能实现提升附 加值的方法,并且这些方法都需要企 业投入时间、金钱和精力。企业必须 要分析自己到底是谁,明白怎么定性 自己的核心价值和特点。尤其重要的 是要知道自己需要和不需要哪些客户, 而不是所有的客户都不管好坏全盘接 收。要了解谁是真正的竞争对手,自 己的产品和别人的差别在哪里。 对设计师来说,这些都是非常值 得重视的,这会让他们对生产企业有 一个清晰的概念以便于做精准的市场 调研,同时这也是实现创意的第一步。 设计师必须要了解目标市场的设计文 化,包括客户的目的与习惯、消费者 不断变化的需求以及未来发展趋势等。 这不是随便一个人就能轻易做到的, 不过这对于设计师来说,他们有自己 的方法和资源去找到这些资讯。坦白

Olga Sismanidou和她的合伙人

说,现在的消费者遭受了太多的信息 和价格轰炸,在过去7年间,他们在 挑选产品时花在单个产品上的时间从 平均大概12秒减少到了5秒。因此, 不管是从产品、摊位还是从标识、图 像中所体现出来的信息必须要够突出、 清晰和吸引眼球,要跟公司的形象保 持一致,并且要让人印象深刻。 以我自己的经验来看,中国企业 与设计师的合作有两种常见的方式。 17

一种是只买产品的设计,也有可能会 把产品的推广提案一起买下来。另一 种是双方进行全面的合作,在产品设 计、陈列室和摊位设计、样品展示和 形象顾问等方面达成协议,合作范围 覆盖了与公司形象相关的各个方面。 如果公司想建立一个品牌,必须要有 一支专业的创意团队,包括产品设计 师、室内设计师、品牌沟通设计师、 摄影师、造型师、平面设计师以及广

告公司协助等等。这在今天异常激烈 的市场竞争中是非常必要的,特别是 对那些打算做国内市场的公司,这对 很多中国企业来说也是一个新事物。 话虽如此,但这也并不意味着只有花 费大量的金钱才能实现。通过精挑细 选并组成一个小型但高效的创作团队 同样也是可以实现的。对于那些不想 建立品牌的公司,比如他们的客户本 身就是大品牌的出口公司,他们也必 须要为客户提供一些价值主张,以便 客户做出自己的设计,生产独特新颖 的产品,拥有可持续的品质,并提供 与之相符的价格和优质的服务。买家 会忠于有好的设计、好的产品、好的 价格和好的服务的公司。 从1991年开始,我们一直与合作 伙伴Fotis Stamatopoulos进行合作, 涉及的设计领域包括:时装、家纺、 室内、家具、陶瓷、合成树脂、灯具 及其展示、设计活动、季节性装饰品、 设计展览、造型设计等等,我们同时 也在一直努力开拓新的设计领域。对 我们来说,在中国为生产企业做设计 是一个巨大的挑战。创造一件能让世 界上很多人使用并喜欢的产品是一份 很大的责任,但同时也是会有回报的。 我们的设计走的是艺术和情感路线, 所设计的产品背后都蕴含着一段故事, 牵动着人们的情感并在脑海中形成深 刻的印象;通过设计,我们希望给人

们带来快乐。我们把传统的创作方式、 图纸和照片等与计算机渲染相结合, 今天的设计已经突破了规则和界限, 设计灵感也是无处不在:大自然、建 筑、时尚、音乐、艺术以及其他不同 的文化。21世纪是一个设计爆发的纪 元。 中西方的思维方式差别很大。西 方人的思维是直线型的、分析型的, 直接明了地切入要点;而中国人的思 维则是曲线的、整体的和隐喻的。西 方人强调个体和细节,中国人则注重 集体和整体结构。举个例子,西方的 设计师希望每件事情都有条不紊,并 且希望在整个设计项目的过程中能了 解到每一个细节;而中国注重协调和 灵活性的客户在遇到设计过程中可能 会出现的问题时,会选择避免干扰设 计师,直接依照设计师的方法去解决 问题。尽管如此,这些差异还是可以 通过互相学习、理解和互相尊重来克 服的,而且我觉得这两种思维方式都 是很好的。通过这些合作,中西方两 个世界会变得更加紧密,除了双方的 知识、经验和能力得到交流以外,还 有他们的文化价值观念,这些都成为 了中西方传统文化交融后所产生的全 新文化的一部分。 如今,依托广交会这个平台,PDC 广邀海外设计师与中国企业进行合作, 给设计师们提供了在世界第一出口大 18

国创作和工作的机会,也给中国的生 产企业带来了大量的创意人才,以发 掘中国创新的无限潜力。我们深信我 们的设计师团队能够提供中国企业所 需要的可持续的创新设计,以便在竞 争日益激烈的国际市场中为最终消费 者提供更好的产品和服务。

Design in Chinese Market by Olga Sismanidou

Olga Sismanidou is a Design Consultant for Designlobby, a group of European designers, based in Berlin. She is also the cofounder of Miracles/visual experiments, a creative company that operates in several design fields. Designlobby was formed by Vassilios Bartzokas, former CEO of Carteco Design Centre, a company that under his management was awarded as one of the 10 best companies in Europe for the Customer Focus Award at the European Business Awards. Designlobby is a creative cluster representing 60 design companies and studios and more than 300 designers and creatives from different disciplines such as Product Design, Branding and Communication, Graphic and Packaging Design, Architecture and Interior Design, Lighting and Landscape Design, Motion and Sound Design, Photography, Fashion Design, Trend forecasting, etc. Furthermore, it sources creative talents from Europe and the rest of the world. Its aim is to bring together some of the best creatives of Europe to Chinese corporations, individuals and super brands who understand the value of good design, high quality and innovation and want to stand out in a highly competitive market. The designers are highly skilled professionals with international awards, clients all over the world and true passion and devotion towards their projects. They have a wide knowledge of the international market, the latest trends and the consumer needs. Every client is unique for Designlobby. First we understand the specific needs of each one of them, so we can recommend the right creative designer with the innate ability to deliver innovative and first rate results beyond their expectations. We can also provide them with a total solution ranging from product design to branding and communication. Designlobby has established a strategic partnership with PDC in order to understand and communicate with the Chinese enterprises in the best possible way and to provide better services.

I first came to China 7 years ago as an Art Director and Designer of a European import company. Now I practically live in China and after 6 years of designing for Chinese enterprises I am still working with my first 2 customers. So I can say some things from personal experience. In the past the Chinese enterprises focused mainly on low production cost, and some still do. But the market is a fast changing landscape. Now, because of the financial crisis, the rising of production and operation costs, also of the RMB appreciation and the competition from other countries, they realize more and more the need to add value to their products. They can achieve this through Design, Innovation, Technology, Quality, Branding and Communication. These are the sectors to invest time, money and energy. They must analyze who they are, define their core values and their characteristics. Who are the customers they want, but also do not want, also very important, not a little bit of all for all. Define who their competitors are. What differentiates their company and their products from others'. All this information is vital to the designer, so he/she has a clear picture of the company in order to make an accurate market research, which is the first step of the creative procedure. Designers must research the design culture of the market:the customer targets, the habits and the fast changing needs of the consumers and the forthcoming trends. This is not an easy task to be done by anyone, but designers have their ways and their

sources to find all this information. Consumers are literally bombed with too much information and offers. The time they spend to spot and identify an item has dropped down in the last 7 years from 12 to 5 seconds. So the message, whether this is a product, or a booth, a logo or an image, must stand out, to be eye-catching and clear, to be consistent to the image of the company and to be strong enough to be remembered. From my experience there are 2 ways the Chinese enterprises cooperate with the designers. One way is to buy only the products designs and maybe a promotion proposition for these products. The other way is to have an overall cooperation, to make an agreement which includes products designs, show-room and booth designs and display, as well as visual consulting, which is everything that has to do with the image of the company. The companies that want to build a brand name must have a team of creative professionals to achieve that, Product Designers, Interior Designers, Brand and Communication Designers, Photographers and Stylists, Graphic Designers and Advertising

Companies. This is necessary in today's very competitive market and especially for the companies that want to do the domestic market, which is the new thing for Chinese enterprises. It doesn't mean you have to spend a fortune to achieve that. They can select carefully and form a small but effective team of creatives to support this. The companies that do not want to build a brand name, which is the case for many export companies, because their customers are the brand names, still they must have a value proposition for their customers, to create their own designs, unique and innovative products, to have sustainable quality, the price to be in accordance with all that, and to provide good service. The buyers will be loyal to a company that has good design, good products, good prices and good service. We have been working with my partner Fotis Stamatopoulos since 1991 in a lot of different kinds of design fields, fashion, textiles, interiors, furniture, ceramics, polyresin, lights and light shows, events, seasonal decorations, display, styling and we constantly explore new fields of design. Working 20

in China for mass production companies was a big challenge for us. To create products that will be used and enjoyed by so many people all over the world is a big responsibility and at the same time very rewarding. Our approach to design is artistic and emotional. We design products that have a story to tell, trigger emotions, and create images in people's minds. We w a n t t o m a k e p e o p l e h a p p y through our designs. We mix the old-fashioned ways of creating, drawings and pictures with computer renderings. There are no barriers, no rules in today's design and inspiration comes from everywhere:nature, architecture, fashion, music, art, different cultures. The 21 s t century is a Design Boom Era. Of course there is a very different way of thinking between the Western and Chinese people. Western thinking is linear, analytical and straight to the point, Chinese thinking is curved and holistic and metaphoric. Westerners emphasize on the individual and the details, Chinese on the groups and the overall structure. For example, Western designers want everything to be in order and to be informed in detail

during the project, while the Chinese customer who believes in harmony and discretion will avoid disturbing the designer about several issues that might occur and choose to give the solutions himself. These are differences that can be overcome by mutual learning, understanding and respect. To my opinion these two different ways of thinking are c o m p l i m e n t a r y. T h r o u g h t h e s e collaborations, two different worlds come closer and exchange except their knowledge, experience and skills, also their culture values, being part of the creation of a brand new culture that incorporates both Eastern and Western traditions.

N o w, t h r o u g h P D C , C a n t o n F a i r invites overseas designers to cooperate with Chinese enterprises, giving to the designers the opportunity to create and work in the No.1 export country in the world and to the Chinese enterprises the creative brains to exploit the power of innovation China has. We strongly believe our designers can provide the sustainable and innovative design the Chinese enterprises need for today's very competitive international market and for the very demanding final consumers.

文 / PDC设计服务签约 设计师Thanos Zakopoulos

随着人类发展和技术进步,当今 世界变得越来越像地球村,我们的认 知范围不再局限于自己生活的国家和 城市,人们现在可以轻松了解世界其 它地方的人如何生活。我们的所知所 感造就了我们目前的生活方式,也决 定了我们将在生活中使用什么样的产 品。在这个历史关口,中国将扮演非 常重要的角色,因为中国已成为世界 最大的制造中心,也正迈向世界最大 的消费国。

在这种大背景下,文化融合势不 可挡,关键是了解并好好利用这种趋 势。这种趋势也就是设计领域的混搭 风。无论是针对一件家具还是一家艺 23

术酒店,我们都要了解不同文化各自 的元素(特别是欧洲文化和中国文化, 因为它们都拥有深厚的历史),并且 把这些元素注入到创意过程中。混搭 或融合方式根据不同情况各有差别。 我将在下面的文章中简要介绍我在米 兰的设计工作室(CTRLZAK Art & Design Studio)所做的两个各自呈现不同风 格的文化融合项目。 第一个项目叫D/ZEN,它的灵感来 源于佛教倡导的身心合一。这个设计 项目缘起于我多年前的一次厦门南普 陀寺之旅。我当时在寺庙附近发现僧 人在大石头下放置了一些小树枝做支 撑, 而实际上这些小树枝太渺小根本 就不足以支撑大石头,所谓的支撑更 多是一种微妙平衡的表象。过去,这


些被放置在大石头下的小树枝上或许 会刻有佛经。现在这种传统的起源已 不可查证,显然它很可能表达一种请 求、一种誓愿、一种证据。虽然各佛 教流派有不同的佛教仪式,但这种的 确有种不一般的味道。这里边肯定有 禅宗的意味,而这正是这个创意的基 础。D/ZEN各部分的比例正是借鉴了 这种自然与人类充满敬畏的干预的微 妙的结合与平衡。在漫长的创造过程 中,着眼点放在充分阐释天人合一的 禅宗妙旨。树枝状的支撑物正是人类 作用于自然的小小愿力,同时也昭示 着世事无常。D/ZEN由天然简单物料 打造,主体部分由竹子构成,支撑物 由树枝状的金属构件打造,以便强调 这种禅意的平衡。D/ZEN的反射表面 强调了天与人的联系,呈现出天人合 一的禅宗意境。这个项目由意大利公 司D3CO进行生产和商业化运作。 第二个项目叫“融合”,是一系 列充分反映中国和欧洲瓷器生产历史 和几百年来东西方美学之间相互交流 融合的餐具。中国在陶瓷生产尤其是 瓷的生产方面有着悠久的传统,许多 世纪以来欧洲一直千方百计抄袭中国 在这一领域的技术。如今中国产品已 遍布全世界,很多也是在试图模仿他 们的欧洲同行。“融合”这个系列就 是通过借助陶瓷对历史进行反讽。经 过对中国和欧洲陶瓷的传统技术、方 法和演变的初步研究,CTRLZAK设 计团队发现了两种不同陶瓷文化的关 键设计元素。因此,在这个系列中, 每一件产品都用一条彩色线条轮廓分 明地将东方和西方两种不同的风格区 分开来,与此同时,这条分界线又看 似矛盾地加强了两者之间的融合。这 个系列的产品在中国著名的骨瓷生产 地唐山市生产,并通过一家意大利公 司SELETTI在全世界范围内广泛销售。 从我个人在中国的经验来看,我 相信中国在生产方面有着非常大的潜 力,但另一方面,也非常有必要强调 跟设计/商业相关的文化。换句话说, 很多中国企业需要在设计策略方面做 更大的投入,并学习如何利用更好的 专业设计师,特别是那些来自欧洲的 设计师,因为欧洲在设计领域有着50 多年的传统,因此,重要的是要相信 这些设计师以及他们的专业知识。与

此同时,也要认识到,不能因此而失 去自己的传统,相反,要将这些文化 遗产跟世界各地的不同文化相互融合。 这绝非易事,它需要开放的思维、耐 心以及对两个(或更多)的文化有深 入的了解,同时也需资金投入。当今, 设计的作用至关重要,而更重要的是, 要创造出自己的蕴含寓意的好设计。 24


设计理念 DESIGN IDEAS

Towards a

Hybrid Culture by Thanos Zakopoulos (co-founder of CTRLZAK Art & Design Studio, Milan - Italy & creative director of DESIGNLOBBY.ASIA, Berlin-Germany) Nowadays our world is not limited to the city or the country that we live in; thanks to technology and human advancements we can see what is going on at the other part of the world and see how people live in distant cities. All the information that we perceive shapes the way we live and in consequence all the things that we choose to have around us. China in this crucial historic moment plays a very important role since it is the world's number one producer of consumer goods and it is also rapidly becoming the world's largest consumer society at the same time. In this contemporary framework cases of cultural mix are inevitable, the key point is to comprehend them and utilize them accordingly. Whether we are talking about a furniture piece or an art hotel made in China it is imperative to pinpoint the cultural elements from both cultures (especially between European and Chinese cultures, both of which have rich historical backgrounds) and insert them the creative process. They way to do that varies according to the case studies; below I will present two examples of projects realized by my studio in Milan (CTRLZAK Art & Design Studio) that, each one in its own way, illustrate exactly that. The first project is called D\ZEN and is a series of objects inspired by the spiritual and physical balance of Buddhist practices. The inspiration of the project comes from a discovery near a Buddhist temple in Xiamen, South China: the monks placed tiny sticks underneath massive boulders, appearing to support them but too small to bear the stone's weight. In the past it is probable that these sticks were placed beneath the stones by monks and had sutras carved on them. The exact original meaning of this folk tradition is unclear, although it could be the expression of a request, a vow, or a testimony. Although the different forms of Buddhism have diverse practices, this specific one is unusual. It is certainly a gesture within the Zen (in Chinese chán 禅) spirit, which has been the foundation of this project's creative process. D\ZEN´s balanced volumes are inspired by a rare combination of nature and man's respectful intervention. They are archetypal forms that sustain objects

and people, imperfect forms in perfect balance. Throughout the long development process the importance was placed in conveying the essence of nature and the balance of things. The stick is man's little touch, which supports nature but reminds us that everything is temporary. D\ZEN is constructed from simple, natural materials. The main volume is in bamboo wood. The support, on the other hand, imitates the original wooden stick but is handcrafted in solid metal to enhance the importance of this structural element. The D\ZEN objects are completed with reflective surfaces emphasizing the connection between nature and man, and between heaven and earth. An Italian company called D3CO makes the production and commercialization of these objects at present. The second project example is called HYBRID, a collection of tableware reflecting on the historical production of Chinese and European porcelain and its centuries of cross-fertilization between Western and Eastern aesthetics. China has a long tradition in the production of ceramics and especially porcelain and Europe has for many centuries tried to copy the Chinese in that field. Nowadays our world is invaded by Chinese products which in many cases attempt to imitate their European counterparts. HYBRID is a reflection upon the irony of history through the world of ceramics. After an initial research in the traditional techniques, methods and evolution of both Chinese and European ceramics, the CTRLZAK team has identified certain key elements that distinguish both cultures. As a result the pieces in the collection are graphically divided between east and west with a coloured line marking the boundary between the t w o s t y l e s a n d , p a r a d o x i c a l l y, strengthening at the same time the union. The collection is distributed worldwide by an Italian company (SELETTI) while the production is made in the Chinese city of Tangshan which is famous for the production of bone china.

25


From my personal experience in China I believe that there is a lot of potential, production wise, but also on the other hand a great need to augment the design/business related culture. In other words many Chinese companies need to invest more in their design strategies and learn how to utilize better design professionals especially those coming from Europe, where in the last 50 years there is a large tradition in the field. For that reason, it is important to trust European Designers and their expertise. At the same time it is important for them to understand that by doing so, they must not lose their own tradition but instead mix their cultural heritage with that of the rest of the world. It is definitely not an easy task and it takes an open mind, patience, deep knowledge of both (or more) realities as well as financial investment but the role of design is crucial nowadays and even more crucial is to create your own designs that tell stories.

CTRLZAK Art & Design Studio is a multidisciplinary team founded by Thanos Zakopoulos (Greece) and Katia Meneghini (Italy). The studio operates internationally in the field of contemporary art and design with a creative vision which is not limited by a specific framework developing thus work that ranges from product and space design to case specific art projects and installations. With the use of semiotic tools within the creative process the studio proposes forms which surpass common aesthetic values working on a cognitive level. The concept behind each project is to inspire a responsible awareness through the 'added value' that art has for society with a special attention to issues of environmental impact.

工业设计

弘扬“广东创造”的抓手

文 / 第114届广交会PDC设计展示 广州团组织方 ——广州市工业设计行业协会 会长 冼燃

工业设计之重——在份额、 在战略、在影响力 无论是作为企业家,还是作为 设计师,我们认为韩国三星是一个 比较值得学习的企业。三星电子在 20年前是一个濒临倒闭的企业,为 了挽救企业,三星将当时在美国从 事销售工作的李健熙召回。李健熙 掌舵三星之后,确立了以工业设计 为核心的复兴计划。随后三星便快 速膨胀,目前,三星的年销售量超 过了日本前7家电子企业的总和, 成为了不折不扣领先的国际电子产 品巨头。我们又举一个不重视工业 设计的例子:2001年,松下在华销 售了200多万台电器,但到现在,这 家企业在华的销售量减少到了40多 万台。我们认为,将价格战略置于 工业设计之上是松下走到今天的主 要原因。 我们再讲一个汽车工业的例子。 1999年某汽车品牌在广州投产,到 2008年,该品牌共进行了八代改款, 每次更改都使价格在下跌之后又回 升6~7万元。我们认为,“该品牌

所进行的创新,并不是发明创造,而 只是对车灯、引擎盖、车尾,或是对 内饰、导航系统进行局部的调整,通 过工业设计的改款,使产品更符合时 代气息,精美的外观造型能够让消费 者感受到时尚的冲击,因而他们也愿 意掏更多的钱来购买该品牌的最新款 汽车。” 整个世界已经进入“疯狂”的时 尚时代,诺基亚可以在3个月内推出 100款新手机,数码相机天天有新面 孔。产品的功能固然重要,但产品的 外在美感,已经成为消费者在商品的 海洋中挑选产品的最重要参考因素。 品牌力靠的是产品力,而在基本技术 同构的产品中,工业设计正是打造产 品力的关键所在。 工业设计之机——在理念、 在转型、在信心 广东的工业显现出来的特征是以 密集型制造业为主,但其以往的人力、 土地等优势正在流失,规模庞大的制 造业走到转型升级的重要关口,而工 业设计恰恰可以作为改造传统制造业、 29

实现从“广东制造”转向“广东创 造”的抓手。影响现今世界工业化 进程的,主要是改良性技术创新― 工业设计创新。大力扶持以工业设 计为中心的自主创新产业经济,充 分调动工业设计的创新潜能,能够 从根本上提升广东的工业水平。走 在改革前列的、外向型的广东制造 业,可以通过工业设计杀出一条血 路。 近年来,广东工业发展迅速, 经济总量不断增长,很快就超过了 新加坡、台湾和香港,但就是超不 过韩国,这其中与韩国工业设计立 国的理念是密不可分的。 当前的经济形势要求我国制造 业的升级,要求我国的工业设计能 于其中有所担当;2008年举行的奥 运会,其精彩绝伦的开幕式已向世 界表明,中国一样有非凡的创意, 这为我国的工业设计的未来也增添 了信心。 工业设计的另一个关键点是它 能够创造净利润,不能永远是千万 件衬衫换一架飞机。2000年,中国


和韩国的服装价格还相同,现在韩国 服装的价格是中国的4倍。用的都是 中国的面料,为什么会贵4倍?是设 计在其中起了作用。GDP是要靠净利 润支撑的!我们的调查是,国内很多 的行业,如果依靠设计(包括工业设 计),在全球产业链上,每年增加1% 的产值,10年后将会是相当可观的财 富增加。总之,未来10年、20年的利 润增加值就是靠工业设计。 为什么这么多年,我国的工业 设计相较于制造业的发展大幅滞后? 我们认为,一是我国的教育体系难 以培养出做设计的人才;二是我国 的企业,没有设计人才发挥空间的 体制;三是我国还没有形成利于工 业产业设计的政策环境。 举一个国外教育的例子:教育 发达国家的一个课程,即要求学生 画一个瓢虫标本。那么,学生先要 抓一个瓢虫,用什么工具抓呢?到

工业设计之憾—— 在教育、在体制、在政策 什么地方可以抓到?什么样的瓢虫 很好看呢?然后制作出来,随后还 要画。看看整个过程,就知道学生 的左脑右脑都锻炼了。而我们的教 育,只锻炼右脑。虽然现在也有什 么艺术课程,但多的也就是一年50 个课时。这样的艺术培养能造就出 设计人才? 再谈企业的管理体制,应该说 到了宝马车的设计。一款宝马车从 开始谋划设计到上市,需要5年时 间,这期间,会出设计图,会制模, 会选材,以及与配套厂商的沟通, 到新车实验等,这些主要都是设计 总监说了算。但是在国内,很多产 品是老总说了算。也就是说,一个 非专业的审美人士来决定一个产品 到底美不美。作为一个老总,应该 30

是经营大师,管理的重点应该是战 略、人事和财务。 工业产业设计的政策环境,业 内还是比较遗憾的。不过,现在广 东开始极为重视工业设计,目前已 经实行工业设计职称评定。在广州, 《关于促进广州工业设计发展的实 施意见》已经出台,包含广州市工 业设计示范企业评定、大力推广广 州国际设计周、制定广州市工业设 计服务外包补贴政策等等。我们作 为广州本土的设计协会也将会不遗 余力地推动广州工业设计的发展壮 大。 我们有一个梦想,那就是,中 国制造将在工业设计引领下顺利实 现升级换代,中国的设计公司将百 花齐放,中国会诞生“设计之都”, 世界消费者应为中国企业精妙设计 的产品而折服。相信在不久的将来, 我们都能看见这个梦想成真。

关于中国企业和设计的一些看法 Michel Millot PDC 参展商米罗设计

我觉得中国企业应让外国客商来买自己的好产品,而不是来讨价还价。如果要 想和竞争对手形成差异化,就应该将设计作为一种必要的生存发展手段,而不 是把设计当作一种“艺术浪漫”。

整理 / PDC 余劲文

作为最早参加PDC的设计公司 之一,法国米罗设计公司创始人 Michel Millot先生近日向笔者谈了 不少他对中国制造业、中国设计的 看法。

中国企业需扭转对工业设计的 传统观念 工业设计有一些误区,这是中 国企业经常会陷入的。譬如传统的 市场营销人员可能会约束创新: “设计师先生,请做跟竞争对手相 似但是又不同的设计”;或者技 术人员可能会是一些“点子杀手”: “这样做不了,太贵了”。一些家 电企业曾为模仿对手而付出昂贵的 代价,但事实上,他们在模仿的同 时忘记了一个事实——即使是世界 名牌产品也有很多缺陷,这就是他 们以为的“潮流趋势”。生态、环 保、可持续发展的概念,欧洲设计 师早就提出来了,大家承认并在谈 论它,却在实际当中很难实现。商 业价值始终凌驾于使用价值之上。

苹果公司跟随趋势了吗?创造是设 计师首要的活动,让我们真正的创 新,不要总是根据竞争对手产品来 思考。 工业设计不是一项艺术活动, 不是会画漂亮图画的“外观专家”, 不是一个跟随时尚潮流的艺术家, 也不要以为工业设计师们对技术和 市场营销一窍不通;欧洲设计不贵, 它会为企业带来回报,它会寻找一 些创新的解决方案,但同时遵守生 产条件和商业要求的限制。

外国设计助力中国企业发展 中国曾在相当长一段时间内受 益于低价的经济模式。但现在,价 格战难度变得越来越高,关键原因 是中国产品的原材料价格优势不再, 抄袭仿制或者降低价格的路越走越 窄。同时,中国产品较以往要承担 更多的责任——不能只是满足一部 分人对财富的追求,更要回应8亿 农民的需求,使他们能够购买冰箱、 家用电器、汽车……从长期来说, 这很有必要。 在这个过程中,外国设计师扮 32

演着重要的角色:他们能够帮助企 业们把握“未来的”趋势,而不是 “当下的”。他们能让中国出口企 业在世界竞赛中不仅获得增长速度 和规模上的优势,更能逐渐弥补在 创新能力和工艺质量上的短缺,尤 其是在经济保护主义开始抬头的情 形下。 PDC是极具勇气和价值的项目 PDC为中国企业提供的支持极具 勇气。它帮助企业开展和实践工业 设计,认识“设计”,让设计在企 业中从被误解到回归其本质——产 品应用和外观质量。这是中国企业 成功的关键所在,也是其技术发展 应该专注的地方。PDC的存在,让 这种追溯本源的聚焦显得可行和可 贵。 我觉得中国企业应让外国客商 来买自己的好产品,而不是来讨价 还价。如果要想和对手形成差异化, 就应该切实投入来提升应用质量和 环境质量,应该将设计作为一种必 要的生存发展手段,而不是把设计 当作一种“艺术浪漫”。这也是中 国企业转型过程中面临的一大挑战。


My Views on Chinese

Michel Millot设计作品

Enterprises and Design For a long period of time China has been benefiting from the low-cost economic model. But now, as the price advantage of raw materials no longer exists and the road of imitation gets narrower, price war in China is getting tougher. Therefore, design is the only factor that can get into involved in order to change this situation. Foreign designers are going to play a very important role in this process since they are able to help Chinese manufacturing companies to grasp the trend of "the future" rather than "the present". They not only help Chinese export enterprises to gain advantages in the growth rate and scale in the world competition, but also gradually make up for the shortfall in innovation and quality, especially under the circumstance when the economic protectionism begins to rise. 33

A lamp of simple strokes that creates thousands of shapes, appliances with their own DNA, the interiors of a Japanese car, barbecues in Sydney, Mediterranean style hotels in Hong Kong and award-winning exhibitions reflect the new generation of Spanish design: a design in constant evolution that sets cutting-edge trends while respecting culture and tradition. Design Made in Spain is exploring its roots to reach a more diverse and international audience. This is happening thanks to a renewed orientation of the Spanish industry that has set itself to conquer the global markets, and a more commercial vision of design as embodied in the production of limited and exclusive industrial and semiindustrial series.


Strategic vision in design has been consolidated worldwide and has been widely adopted in Asia, understanding design as a tool for managing projects aimed at providing innovative solutions with greater added value. It is clear that in today’s competitive market, consumers are increasingly demanding and selling designer products is no longer a guarantee f o r s u c c e s s . H o w e v e r, t h e r e a r e opportunities for those companies that want to participate in this change of model and develop new product and service concepts. Credit of the Spanish success must be given to associations and design schools in Barcelona, Valencia and Bilbao (among others)that continue to attract young talent from different backgrounds who value the quality of a wide variety of design and o ff e r t h e i d e a l c o n d i t i o n s f o r t h e development of creativity.

disciplines (such as interior design and graphic design), projecting a global image of Spanish design.

The character of Spanish design consolidates worldwide thanks to an increasing number of studies that grow internationally to convey the Spanish passion about life without forgetting to provide real solutions to the industrial reality and to project a more sustainable and respectful world. Spain has done a great promotion of its design in countries with a strong tradition in the discipline, such as Sweden, Germany, Holland, Italy and Japan (which has become the gateway to eastern cultures). The experience gained by participating in exhibitions, magazine promotions and other events, shows that the work and talent of the designers is admired by their influences (for

In this context, the Spanish habitat sector is projected to the world by integrating new technologies, materials, industrial processes and by adapting to the changing needs of users. It is an active attitude based on trust in the discipline of design which, given the transversal vision of the world around us, acquires a crucial importance. The Spanish lighting, furniture, household goods, textiles and sanitary sectors are becoming increasingly oriented to the rest of the world and now count with showrooms in Moscow, Shanghai and New York. This fact has strengthened the link between the industrial sector and the various design

example, by the masterpieces of Gaudi) but, at the same time, that designers have managed to break certain stereotypes and obtain greater recognition by both national and international companies in the conception of design as a strategic tool. As the 90s was a period of consolidation, the beginning of this century represents the expansion of Spanish design. The constant collaboration with leading brands in Europe has shown that what used to be regarded as the main problem of Spanish design studies (the small size of their structures and resources), is not a decisive factor to develop creativity. Optimizing resources, specializing, incorporating new technologies and collaborating with other specialists, constitutes the best platform to compete globally. 36

The scenario in China seems more complicated because of the country’s rapid development, which has led to a continuous expansion of the industry and a society in constant search of well-being. Stimulo, industrial design studio in Barcelona with office in southern China, is a reflection of the interest of manufacturers and Chinese brands in Spanish design. The studio aims to create design strategies in the medium and long term with manufacturers to establish collaborations that can allow developing innovation and branding approaches using design as starting point. There are many points of interest from a creative point of view but, in words of Xavier Majoral, director of Stimulo’s office in Guangzhou, "Asia is presented as a market in constant growth where the demographic boom represents a new energy and a new way of consuming that needs design to develop". China is a country of great numbers and Spanish studios are characterized for being small and medium-sized, making it difficult for them to establish abroad, so it is crucial to define the differentiating points of each design studio. It is also important to make use of our Latin character to seduce one of the most interesting markets in terms of creativity. Stimulo has recently been awarded the Chinese Design Award 2012 in the "Best Industrial Product Design" category for LED technology in lamps.

Walking in the main streets in the world it is inevitable to find yourself surrounded by Zara, Mango, Camper and other leading Spanish designer brands which have become a benchmark in terms of design and business model.

谷思工业设计公司在113届广交会期间与客户商谈设计项目

“去湖边钓鱼,并非一定要把鱼全部钓上来” 谷思工业设计(GOTH DESIGN)如何打进中国市场 文 / PDC参展商谷思工业设计 郑锡俊

韩国谷思工业设计公司成立于 2003年,到现在已经有10年的历史。 公司在创建初期主要通过为一些家用 电器和电子通讯公司提供外观设计服 务在韩国市场逐步寻找自身的立足之 地。 就我个人而言,与中国客户的第 一次合作是在成立谷思公司之前,当 时我有幸为中国的海尔集团做洗衣机 设计。海尔集团的设计部门想通过我 的设计来进一步了解韩国的设计和市 场,对韩国的设计表现出了浓厚的兴 趣。但那次设计工作结束之后,没能 继续维持与海尔的合作关系。其中的 原因当然有很多,但我认为最重要的 原因是当时的我只站在一个普通的设 计工作者的角度去思考,对进军中国 市场尚未产生深刻而正确的认知。 随后,2005年中国TCL集团联系 我们,他们有意向在移动电话开发上 开展合作。为了与TCL在深圳的会面,

自己第一次单枪匹马来了中国。由于 对中国不了解,发生了许多好笑的事 情,甚至飞机票都订错了,不是飞到 深圳而是飞到了广州。那次的会议包 括我一共去了5家韩国设计公司,我 用我的蹩脚英文和肢体语言为TCL做 了公司介绍。现在回头想想,觉得自 己当时也太“勇敢”了。也正是通过 这次机会,我意识到中国的大企业对 韩国设计的关注度不断提高,中国的 工业设计也将迎来崭新的开始。但当 时的谷思因成立没多久,须将大部分 的精力投放到如何在韩国扎稳脚跟上, 因此没有条件去考虑如何打开中国市 场。 自从那时起,谷思工业设计开始 正式全面开展与韩国客户的设计合作, 大多以家用电器和电子通讯为主,不 断地积累经验。我们与韩国最大的电 脑机箱生产厂商合作,成功地开发了 一系列产品,不但在韩国广受好评,

37

在海外地区也产生了一定的知名度。 也就是在这个时候,中国的一家电脑 机箱开发厂商联系了我们,希望能够 和我们展开设计业务上的合作。我们 一共开发了6款产品,但销售的结果 却大大出乎我们的意料。由于我们最 初的设计主要针对韩国企业的销售市 场,提供的设计与中国企业的销售地 区消费者的喜好产生了偏差。虽然在 客户和我们的立场上认为设计十分优 秀,但销售业绩却很不理想。当时这 也给了我很大的打击,我开始明白在 对消费市场和流通结构不了解的基础 上进行设计,无论多么优秀,最终也 会有失败的可能。 自此之后,我们开始注重进入设 计阶段之前对销售市场和消费者的调 查分析,制作了具体的设计流程,也 开始寻找方法试图开拓海外市场。当 然,这一过程也花费了很多精力,遇 到过很多困难。当时的大多数中国企


谷思的设计师们在众多创意中挑选最棒的设计

业主要是为外商企业做贴牌(OEM)业 务,在与设计公司合作开发自有品牌 上并没有太多经验。中国国内的一些 大企业找我们做设计,产品主要集中 在如冰箱、电视、空调等大型家电以 及手机的外观设计上。由于我们缺乏 这些产品的设计案例,无论用口头讲 述我们的实力和设计如何优秀,都无 法得到客户的信任。他们更加倾向于 那些在具体产品上有丰富经验的设计 公司。 由此,我又重新将目光投放到韩 国市场,开始寻求方法和机会,使谷 思的设计案例内容丰富起来。直到 2010年,公司已成立7年,我回过头 来再重新审视谷思的成果,产品已变 得多种多样,涉及各个领域,更重要 的是积累了与三星等大企业合作的经 验。7年间,为了让谷思不断成长壮 大,为了能够为客户提供高品质的设 计,我和我的同事们可以说不分昼夜 地进行设计工作。也就在那时,我觉 得我们的准备已经做得差不多了,又 重新将目光投向了海外市场。 我开始参加海外各大展会和博览 会,亲自到各个展台推荐自己的公司 并派发公司图册,结束后回到公司又 一一向见过面的客户发送邮件。也有 通过人脉和中国企业取得联系,只要 客户有意向,我总是无条件地飞到中

国进行面谈。经过坚持和努力,我在 展会上与位于中国慈溪市的一家中国 企业董事长取得了见面的机会,并被 邀请到慈溪参观访问。在了解那家公 司的产品后,我们进行了设计报价, 因我们的设计费用是当时中国设计公 司费用的5倍,所以当时没有能够展 开合作。但是,由于我们会面时的谈 话非常投机,我内心又十分感谢他们 对谷思的认可,因而成了好朋友。同 时,这家企业也为我们在中国市场拓 展客户网创造了很多机会。我开始进 一步更加深入地了解中国的市场现状 和对设计的具体需求以及应该以何种 方式打开中国市场的大门。 中国的工业设计行业可以说以北 京、上海和深圳三市为主要集中地。 三地的产品特征和市场特性各不相同。 由于到目前为止我们在北京地区的业 务量不多,所以无法做出具体评价, 但上海和深圳地区在设计方面的需求 显然是截然不同的。当然,对这两地 的评价也仅是我个人意见,从客观性 角度来看,也不能说是完全准确的。 首先是深圳,我了解中国的工业 设计最早发展于深圳,主要以消费电 子类产品设计为主。与广东东莞等制 造商集中地毗邻是深圳工业设计行业 迅速发展的一个有利条件。与中国其 他地区相比,我对于深圳企业的印象 38

是以技术导向型产品开发为主的企业 较为集中。简单地说,最初以OEM业 务为主的深圳企业,在生产过程中不 断积累经验,通过与国内外企业的合 作研究新技术,推动自身发展。从海 外归来的留学生或者设计工作者们, 自然而然地会对文化进行比较,在多 元化的文化背景下,对产品开发提供 出更多新想法、新创意。在产品开发 时,他们希望能够通过设计将想法实 现到产品上。由于他们对工业设计的 理解度较高,在设计工作应该如何进 行以及设计费用应该如何计算等方面 都有一定的掌握。因此,他们更加注 重在设计上的投资,更加倾向于选择 能够充分地了解文化和技术的设计公 司进行合作。与他们进行对话的时候, 如果不具体谈到对文化和技术的了解, 基本上无法成功地展开合作。目前, 与谷思合作的深圳企业大部分具备拥 有新技术并吸收大量外国文化的特征, 在会面时往往容易产生共鸣。 其次是以上海地区为中心的企业。 上海以及浙江地区的企业大多数以电 风扇、加湿器、洗衣机等家电产品为 主,这主要是因为该行业在该地区起 步较早,已拥有一定的历史和规模, 实力雄厚。也正是因为规模庞大,相 互之间的竞争当然十分激烈。长久以 来以OEM生产为主,与技术开发相比,

第113届广交会PDC设计展示韩国谷思工业设计参展设计师

更加注重如何利用价格取得市场优势。 在工业设计重要性的认知上,与深圳 相比,可能会有一些不足之处。此地 域的产品类别历史较久,技术开发上 有一定局限性,产品最大的差别就在 于外观设计的不同。尤其是我到访过 的慈溪市,可以说生产厂商云集,由 于产品种类和销售地区相同加上外观 设计雷同,使得企业与企业之间的竞 争非常激烈。在这样的情况下,比起 新技术开发,企业管理者更加注重于 市场的拓展和与客户的关系。事实上, 以上海地区为中心的企业,现在所需 要的是和能够提供差异化设计的公司 进行合作。但是,另外一个问题也需 要考虑,就是“抄袭”。就算提供了 差异化的设计,产品一旦上市,短时 期内就会有雷同产品推出,之前在设 计上的所有投入将变得没有意义。因 此,虽然上海地区的企业对工业设计 的需求较高,但在费用上不肯投资, 在推动合作上有一定的困难。但我仍 努力寻找一个好的方法力求能够为这 些企业提供出高质量的设计。比如说 通过产品开发和推广树立自有品牌风 格,与激烈的竞争相比,将更多的精 力投入到技术和品质提升上。再比如 说通过一些好创意将传统产品更新, 并申请专利,逐渐将专利意识引入, 减少“抄袭”行为的发生。

谷思工业设计一直以来最注重与 客户关系的持久性,通过过去10年间 积累的经验和不断学习、摸索、成长, 运用谷思独有的设计方法开发产品, 为客户寻找发展方向,树立品牌风格。 在韩国有这样一句俗语:“去湖边钓 鱼,并非一定要把鱼全部钓上来”, 谷思工业设计进军中国市场,并非一 定要和所有的中国企业展开合作,但 我们希望遇到在企业发展上能够与我 们产生共鸣,在产品开发上能够相互 协作的中国企业,互利互助,一同创 造企业的未来!

"You don't have to

catch all the fish when fishing by the lake." How did Goth Design Enter the Chinese Market? By JEONG SUK JUNE Translated by Yang Handong

Goth Design Co., Ltd. was established in 2003. During its early stage since establishment, the company was striving to find the foothold in the market of Korea mainly through providing design services to companies of home appliances and electronic communication products.

Personally, my first collaboration in China was before the establishment of Goth Design, when I had the honor of doing design of washing machines for Haier Group of China. The design department of Haier Group showed great interest because they wanted to learn more about Korean design and market through my collaboration. However, my cooperative relationship with Haier didn't continue after that first experience. There were quite a lot of reasons, of course, but I think the most important one was that I was just looking at this matter from a common designer's point of view without a profound and correct understanding on the Chinese market.

In 2005, the TCL Group of China contacted us and intended to cooperate with us on their mobile phone development. In order to make this happen, I made my very first visit to China alone for a meeting with TCL in

Shenzhen. As a stranger to China, I made a lot of funny mistakes when arriving. I even booked the wrong ticket flying to Guangzhou instead of Shenzhen. Five Korean design companies were present at that meeting including mine, and I had to give presentation of Goth Design to TCL using my crappy English and body language. Now when I am thinking back, I thought I was too "brave" at that time. It was also through that opportunity that I realized China's large enterprises had begun to pay increasing attention to Korean design, and there would be a brand new beginning for China's industrial design. However, we could not afford to consider how to open the Chinese market at that time since Goth Design was still very young not long after establishment, and we had to put most of our energy into gaining a firm foothold in the Korean market. Since then, Goth Design had begun to carry out a comprehensive design collaboration with Korean customers in order to accumulate more experience mostly in household appliances and electronic communication products. We successfully developed a series of products for the Korea's largest manufacturer of computer chassis, which were not only acclaimed in Korea but also well known in overseas regions.

Because of that, we got a contact from one Chinese manufacturer of computer chassis, who was hoping to commence cooperation with us in design. We developed six products together, however, the sales result was far beyond our expectations. The design we originally made primarily catered to the Korean market, and was far away from the consumer preferences in the Chinese market. That was what resulted in an unsatisfactory sales performance although both our customers and ourselves regarded them as excellent designs, and was quite a great blow to me at that time. I began to realize that no matter how excellent the design itself is, it is doomed to fail if we do it without understanding the consumer markets and the distribution structures. After that, we began to focus on the market and consumer research prior to designing, and come up with a detailed design process. We also began looking for ways into overseas markets, during which, of course, we invested a lot of energy and encountered many difficulties. Most of the Chinese enterprises at that time were mainly doing OEM for foreign companies, and they did not have much experience in developing their own brands in cooperation with design companies. Some large enterprises in


行业概览 DESIGN OVERVIEW

China came to us to design for their products such as refrigerators, TV sets, air conditioners and other large home appliances, and mobile phone appearance. Due to our lack of design cases of such products, we failed to earn the trust of those customers no matter how hard we tried to verbally explain our design strength and excellence. They were more inclined to choose those design companies with extensive experience in specific products. Thus, I looked into the Korean market again and began to seek ways and opportunities to enrich the design experience of Goth Design. By 2010 when the company was in its 7th year since establishment, Goth Design had gained enough experience in many products of different fields, especially the experience in cooperating with such large enterprise as Samsung. My colleagues and I had been working all day and night on designing during those seven years in order to ensure the increasing growth of Goth Design and the high-quality design work for our customers. It was at that time that I thought we were almost ready for the overseas markets. We participated in major overseas exhibitions and fairs, distributed our company's introduction and catalogues personally to each booth, and sent e-mails to every customer that we had met after returning to the company. We also got contacts with some Chinese enterprises through human relations, and I would always flew to China to have meetings with them as long as they showed any interest in our design. Through persistence and hard work, I got a chance in the exhibition to meet the managing director of one Chinese enterprise located in Cixi, China, and was invited to visit his company. After thorough investigation in that company and its products, we worked out a quotation; but we could not go into cooperation because the quotation was five times higher than that of a Chinese design company at that time. However, we became good friends afterwards because our meeting was quite agreeable and I was very grateful for his recognition of Goth Design; furthermore, he had been creating a lot of opportunities for me to expand our customer base in the Chinese market. I began to further study the situation of Chinese market, its specific demands of design and the ways to open it. China's industrial design industry is concentrated in the three main cities of Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen, where the product features and market characteristics are all different from each other. I am not able to give a specific

evaluation to the Beijing area because our business there is quite small, but I can comment on the areas of Shanghai and Shenzhen, where there are totally different demands in terms of design. Of course, objectively speaking, these are only my personal opinions, and should not be regarded to be entirely accurate. First in Shenzhen. China's industrial design was originated in Shenzhen, where was mainly about consumer electronics products. One favorable condition for the rapid development of industrial design industry in Shenzhen is its adjacency to the manufacturer concentrated areas such as Dongguan and other cities of Guangdong province. Compared with other cities of China, Shenzhen is leaving me the impression of its concentration of technologyoriented enterprises. Simply put, these enterprises were initially based on OEM business, and developing through their growing experience of production and their cooperations in new technologies with domestic and foreign enterprises. With diverse cultural contexts, the returning overseas students and other design staff will naturally compare between different cultures and provide more new ideas and creativities during the product developments. They have deeper understandings of the industrial design, its approaches and the quotation methods, and they hope to realize their design ideas in the products. Therefore, those enterprises with such employees will pay more attention to investment in design, and are more inclined to choose to cooperate with the design companies which can fully understand the cultures and technologies. It is basically unable to cooperate with them successfully if there is a lack of understandings of cultures and technologies during the 41

communication. Luckily, Goth does share these common understandings with most of the cooperative enterprises in Shenzhen currently, which feature new technologies and absorption of foreign cultures. Then in Shanghai and its surrounding areas. Enterprises in Shanghai and Zhejiang areas are mostly major in fans, humidifiers, washing machines and other home appliances, mainly because this industry in these areas started earlier and has a certain history, size and strength. The scale of this industry is really large, so the competition between each other of course is very intense. These enterprises have long been focusing on OEM production and putting more emphasis on gaining the market advantage via price wars instead of technology development. Compared with Shenzhen, there may be insufficient recognition of the importance of industrial design in these areas, which has been resulting in certain limitations in technology development, thus the biggest difference of like products from these areas lies merely in the appearances. Especially in Cixi City where I visited, the competition among the gathered manufacturers is fierce because of the similar product categories, same sales regions and the identical appearance designs. Under such circumstances, enterprise administrators focus more on market expanding and customer relations instead of new technology developments. In fact, for those enterprises with Shanghai area as the business center, what they need is the cooperation with the design companies that can provide differentiated design services. However, "plagiarism" is another problem which also needs to be taken into consideration. There will always be imitated products following not long after the launch of new products in the market even the


design is differentiated, which makes it meaningless to invest in design in the first place. As a result, the enterprises in Shanghai area are not quite willing to invest in industrial design even though they are having high demands for it, making it difficult in promoting cooperations with them. But I'm still trying to find good ways to help such enterprises with high-quality design. For example, establish their own brands through product development and promotion, and put more efforts into upgrading the technology and quality. We may also try to gradually introduce to them the awareness of patent and 42

apply for patents for their creative products in order to reduce plagiarizing. With the experience, the unique design approaches and continuous learning, exploring and growing during the past decade, Goth Design Co., Ltd. has always been emphasizing on the longterm relationship with the clients and trying to find them the right directions of development and to establish their own brands. There is a saying in Korea: "You don't have to catch all the fish when fishing by the lake." In the Chinese market, Goth Design does not have to cooperate with all of the Chinese enterprises; however, we do hope to meet and cooperate with those enterprises that can share the common understanding of business growing and can have mutual collaboration in product development. Through mutual benefit and assistance, we can create a great future in the Chinese market!

文 / PDC参展商六维空间设计 廖志文

传统的工业设计经营模式是:接 获设计项目,签订服务合同,按需方 要求提供设计服务,项目确认完成, 收取设计费用。这是一种被动型一次 性收费的设计服务模式,话语权掌握 在设计需方(制造企业)手上,很多 时候,所谓的合同付款约定、尊重设 计、尊重知识等等形同虚设,付款与 否完全由设计需方的满意度来决定。 在这种传统的设计服务模式下,越来

越多的设计公司因为赚不到钱而难以 存活。这其中真正的原因是什么呢? 首先,设计的价值没有明确的衡 量标准,也无法将其量化,全凭“感 觉”。作为设计需方的制造企业基于 普遍的“设计费用是成本而不是投资” 的心态,认为设计越省钱越好,最好 是不用钱,因而在选择设计公司时惯 用的手法就是比价,低价者胜;从而 激发设计公司之间的恶性竞争,甚至 有些公司报出的荒唐价格连职员的基 本薪水都无法保障。 其次,制造企业就产品经营风险 控制而言,产品前期投入越少,资本 投入的风险也就越低,在无法确认设 计能带来的产品市场销售效果和收益 率的情况下,设计费用能省则省是大 多数中小企业“风险控制”的法宝; 而对工业设计在为企业增加产品附加 值和拓展市场方面却认识不足。他们 通常认为工业设计无非就是画画外观 而已,画张图纸能要多少钱?在这种 时间和费用都要非常节省的压力下, 设计公司纵使有天大的本事也难以发 挥出真正的设计水平。这就导致了那 些对国内设计公司很强势,总是善于 控制设计费用和时间的制造企业每次 得到的都是半吊子的设计,并由此得 出结论:国内设计公司的水平不行。 与此相反,他们对外国设计公司则唯 唯诺诺,一个外观设计项目投入十几 万欧元和耗费数个月的时间也没问题, 殊不知中国已是全球制造大国,很多 国外设计公司脱离了制造产业的支撑, 对材料、工艺、成本、安规、甚至结 构等缺乏足够深入的了解。 再次,工业设计行业没有任何规 范,进入门槛也非常低,只要有桌子 和电脑就可以注册一家设计公司了。 良莠不分、规模能力大相径庭的各类 设计公司拥挤在各处政府设立的创意 园区内争夺同一市场和同一客户。有 设计需求的制造企业在完全不了解设 计公司实际能力的情况下,唯一的选 择便是看谁的报价最低;而报出最低 价格的设计公司为了不亏损,就必须 尽可能地降低成本,从设计周期的大 43

幅压缩到人员费用的极度节省,因此 设计质量根本无法得到保障,并由此 引发恶性循环,价格越走越低,最终 致使制造企业对整个工业设计行业完 全失去信心。 最后,部分浮躁的设计公司为了 能够生存和盈利,什么类型的设计都 敢接,甚至是自己从未涉足的完全陌 生的领域,而且也无法静下心来进行 学习和研究。在低成本的压力下匆匆 赶出来的设计连小孩都能看出有常识 性的错误,自己却引以为傲,不专业 不深入的浮躁心态扼杀了这些设计公 司仅存的一丝生存机会。 这几年工业设计服务价格的平均 值持续下滑,人力成本和经营成本却 在不断攀升,制造企业由于经营环境 的日趋恶化而对设计投入变得更加谨 慎。在建筑装潢行业中,免费设计早 已成为普遍的现象,以此为参照,我 们可以断言:工业设计免费的时代即 将来临! 这并非危言耸听,这是大势所趋 的必然结果。 第一,制造企业基于风险控制因 素的考量,希望得到的设计是符合市

即热式水壶


水果冰淇淋机

场需求的,更希望在产品投入初期设 计费用更低甚至没有费用,而在产品 投放市场并产生经济效益后,即使付 出更多的设计费用也值得。好的设计 才会有好的市场因此才能有好的分成, 背离市场的设计将得不到任何回报, 这种风险共担利益共享的分配原则很 合理,而且将制造企业与设计公司捆 绑成利益共同体,因此合作将会更加 密切和长远。这样便实现了各尽所能、 风险共担、利润共享的目标。 第二,作为设计公司,其擅长的 是市场机会挖掘分析与产品设计,欠 缺的是生产加工与销售渠道,在通过 其具有市场前景的创意产品与制造企 业合作方面,若采用传统的服务模式, 收获的只是一次性而且很有限的费用。 因为是一次性收费,倘若收高了则过 不了制造企业的价格心理关口,倘若 收低了又会变成一单亏损的项目。因 此,要获得长远而持续的收益,就应 该在设计阶段免收设计费,而在产品 上市销售后参与利润分成,这样才能 获得超出预期的回报。 第三,在传统服务模式下,设计

公司的成果只要制造企业认可就行了, 不需要承担任何市场风险,而在这种 风险共担、利润共享,利益与产品销 售挂钩的模式下,则无需顾虑合作的 双方各自不努力。制造企业根本不用 担心设计公司会随便忽悠自己,相反, 他们会使出浑身解数,争取将产品设 计得尽善尽美,绝对不敢以文化为幌 子随便画张图纸来忽悠制造企业。因 为所有收益在产品销售后才会体现, 这种与销售捆绑的利益关系决定了设 计公司必须以谨慎认真的态度去对待 每一个设计项目,配合也会空前的紧 密,甚至会更加主动并积极提出建议。 相应地,制造企业也并非只靠一款产 品就能独步天下,而且一款产品的销 售周期也只有两三年,因此需要对产 品进行不断的系统升级以及外型的更 新和功能的延伸发展,使之更符合市 场需求,以便保持产品的市场占有率, 并防止竞争对手抢占市场。因此,制 造企业若在首个合作项目上获得成功, 则势必要与设计公司进行更长期更深 入的合作,这种合作模式就更能体现 44

双方的忠诚度和合作前景。 第四,就目前的市场经营环境而 言,制造企业还企望像十多年前那样 凭OEM或者靠模仿跟风换个造型就可 以赚个盆满钵满的时代已经是根本不 可能的了。在原材料、汇率、人力成 本节节攀升而且竞争日益加剧的经营 环境下,靠做同质化产品或给产品换 个外观的做法只有死路一条。因此寻 求能设计出有市场潜力并且有附加值 的差异化产品的设计公司进行合作是 当今越来越多制造企业的明智之举。 这种差异化产品的设计不是所有制造 企业所擅长的,他们习惯于跟随市场, 无法在纷繁复杂的市场信息中分析归 纳出市场发展趋势,甚至引领市场, 这是制造企业的短板。设计公司要实 现设计价值的最大化,一无市场销售 渠道,二无资本和生产能力,谈何容 易?因此,遵循“让专业的人去做专 业的事”的原则,制造企业与设计公 司这种强强联合、互惠共赢的合作模 式不但优势互补,而且还有利于长期 的合作发展。


行业概览 DESIGN OVERVIEW

第五,其实极少数敢于探索的设 计公司在几年前甚至更早以前就已经 在尝试这种免收设计费并销售利润分 享的合作模式,只是实施细节略有不 同而已:有的是前期收取少量设计费, 大部分费用在产品销售后收取;有的 是前期设计免费,所有费用在产品销 售利润中分成,至于分成的比例大小 则根据设计项目的新颖性、市场前景 以及利润贡献值等因素来决定。虽然 这些合作案例有成功也有失败,原因 也有很多,但这些敢于吃螃蟹的先驱 者已经为我们展示了众多设计公司可 以一同奔赴的康庄大道。 实施免费设计模式的必要条件及 注意事项: 首先,服务模式已由被动服务演 变成主动服务,这要求设计公司具有 更敏锐的市场洞察力和更深厚的功底 以及更专业的设计水平,而且这不是 单纯靠做外观设计就能解决的问题。 试想一下,制造企业会那么傻让设计 公司单凭外观设计就能参与产品销售 的利润分成吗?更何况单靠外观也确 实不能带来多少产品附加值。因此, 设计公司提供的项目必须是有市场潜 力并且具有高附加值的产品,不仅如 此,设计公司还必须在产品线规划、 产品延伸以及产品的升级换代上付出 更大的努力,这样才能保证这种合作 的稳定性以及受益的持续性。 其次,设计公司选择的合作对象 必须是管理和运作比较规范的制造企 业,特别是企业及其老板的诚信度要 比较高,并且是希望能长久合作的。 合作细节以及协议条文必须要将双方

的权利和义务描述清楚,最好有律师 见证,这样就可以避免日后产生不必 要的纠纷。当然,在沟通过程中若发 现合作方斤斤计较,就应该果断终止 合作关系,那种眼光短浅只看眼前蝇 头小利的企业不是理想的合作伙伴。 同样,制造企业所选择的合作对象不 应是仅仅会提概念或只会设计产品外 观的设计公司,要明白产品的差异化 不等同于产品外观的不同,企业要盈 利靠的是具有市场前瞻性的系统化的 产品规划以及具有市场竞争力并能给 企业带来丰厚利润回报的差异化产品, 而这些不是单靠提提概念或者画画外 观就可以解决的,毕竟从概念到产品 产业化还有太多的问题要解决,还有 太多的事情要做。因此可以说,选择 合适的合作伙伴也就成功了一半以上。 再次,设计免费合作模式可以进 行得更深入更彻底,譬如合作双方可 以合资注册新的公司,共同经营具有 市场前景的产品;或者是设计公司先 注册一家具有独创性产品或专业技术 (专利)背景的公司,当公司运行到 一定程度大家都可以看到其发展前景 时,再将公司部分股权估价出售,吸 引制造企业或者投资商的参股合作, 这种资本运营的手法可以使设计效益 放大到数十倍甚至数百倍。在这方面 最值得我们学习的是应放天教授,他 基本上是一个产品就成立一家公司, 他名下的公司多到连他自己可能都记 不全了。

恋爱三部曲 ——2013上海家具展有感 文 / PDC 黄秋玲

半路出家的我自从踏入了设计产业的圈子以来,就耳闻了大量关于 设计公司和企业关系的描述。我因自 身资历有限,也写不出多有见地的东 西来,这次借由上海设计周和家具展 的机会,得以和台湾设计师刘传凯、 杭州凸凹设计李立成和杨明洁设计机 构张希春以及一些参展的生产企业等 人的交流,使得我能够将设计、产业 和PDC这三方关系根据自己的理解, 作一次小小的书面呈现,同时也当是 一种自励。 PDC作为广交会的一个平台,本 身没有为生产企业提供设计服务的能 力,我们在广交会这个大熔炉里,通 过引进国内外的设计资源,采用商业 运作的模式(收费参展),提供机会, 使设计公司在这里找得到对口的制造 型企业,让制造型企业找得到符合自 身需要的创新来源。如果把这两端比 喻为关系中的男女双方,那么PDC就 是红娘。 按照双方的角色定位,设计公司 和企业的合作关系大致可以分为三个 阶段。1.0时代,2.0时代和3.0时代。 在1.0时代,设计公司是企业的丫鬟, 企业给钱,企业拥有绝对的话语权, 所以设计公司什么都听从于企业。企 业老板按照自己的意愿,定好设计需 求,交由给设计公司来执行。在这个 过程中,设计公司本身的创新并没有 得到多大的发挥。而此阶段,企业的 需求也大多数是停留在具体产品的外 观、形象上的改良,是初级的设计需 求。企业所得到的创新是短暂的、不 系统的。设计公司的价值没有得到完 全体现。PDC这个红娘所做的工作只 是简单地把设计公司拉到广交会,给 个展位,任由双方自由谈,是粗放式 的引荐。 随着同质化竞争不断恶化,设计 公司存在的价值得到了突显。以前只 有大型公司和知名品牌才进行的创新 行为慢慢地也被中小企业所接纳。越 来越多的企业开始认识到了要通过设 计、创新来发展。双方的合作关系进


入了2.0时代。经过前一个阶段的发 展,设计公司,尤其在国内,已经开 始求变,他们不仅仅提供纯设计服务, 还希望依托企业强大的资金、技术优 势,结合自身的创新,双方一同发展 实业。双方进入了谈恋爱的阶段,相 互喜欢,不再是不平等的主人-丫鬟 关系。这种关系,尤其在国内,虽有 部分已在践行,但并不常见。设计公 司希望通过PDC这一红娘,在引导企 业、协助他们寻找合适的合作伙伴方 面发挥更大的作用,促进双方不仅仅 停留在谈恋爱阶段,要进入试婚阶段。 红娘通过组织一些实际的牵线搭桥活 动,如广交会之前就提前了解双方的 认真需求与真正能力,交到双方,使 得在初次见面的广交会之后就可快速 进入恋爱,再辅以广交会期间面对面 的对接会、论坛等活动,推进双方进 入试婚阶段。这一阶段,企业对于设 计的需求不单纯是产品的外观。设计 公司开始帮助中小企业相对客观地评 估其现有的资源、人力和市场化情况, 并为其量身定做产品策略和产品设计, 为中小企业提供了适合自身发展的创 新。 生产企业毕竟是做实业的,创新

有限。设计公司是专注的,在创新的 路上,是他们引领着生产企业。3.0 时代就是如此,设计引领,实业共同 发展。此阶段,试婚已经成功,双方 的关系开始进入结婚生子阶段。设计 公司和制造企业之间不仅合作,还因 彼此的合作产生了众多项目,这些项 目集结为项目群。双方共同担任项目 群的主人,共担风险。红娘是幸福的 见证人,工作基本结束,但同时也可 以继续成为辛苦的监督人。沟通是否 顺畅,生出来的子能否达成共识,是 否可以经得住市场的检验,红娘可以

47

通过广交会这一商业贸易平台的监督 检测出结果。此阶段,必是三方都共 同发展的阶段。 当今时代,发展速度越来越快。 一段关系的确定不简单,发展就更是 来之不易。但有了红娘的牵引与监督, 定能快马加鞭,甚至还会迎来4.0、 5.0等时代的到来。届时,红娘更专 业,双方关系更融洽、更优配。让我 们共同携手期待! (谨以此文致敬一直奋斗在产业、设计行业的 前辈们。后生定当努力、奋发向前。)

项目实例 AD照明DENEB街灯 DENEB; 好的设计;中国DNA

CASE STUDY AD LIGHTING DENEB LED STREET LIGHT When AD Lighting's CEO Mr. Daniel Wang told us of his new challenge, he was pretty clear: We need to create a new product able to satisfy a new segment, which should be quality and more demanding. LED technology needed to get dressed with a new shape, creating a DNA to follow for the new generation of AD DNA products.


PDC参展商 Stimulo 设计

当AD照明的CEO DANIEL告诉我们他面临新的挑战时, 他很明确提出了一点要求:我们需要设计一款能够满足 多样化需求的高质量的产品。LED技术需要新的外观结 构设计,我们需要打造具有全新AD DNA的产品。

Inspiration— Lighting is more than light We believe that lighting plays a key role in our lives. Lighting can create atmospheres, it can hide or highlight your perception in certain persons or objects. It can turn you on or down by just pushing a button. Lighting can even change your mood!

灵感来源- 灯光远不只是照明

We understand lighting as part of our daily lives.

我们相信,灯光已成为我们生活中不可或缺的元素。 它可以营造气氛,隐藏或突出我们对人或物的感知。它 可以让你开心,也可以让你伤感,只需按一下开关,灯 光甚至改变你的心情。我们明白,灯光是我们每天生活 的一部分。 在AD,我们喜欢与光为伴,探索新的境界,并从黑 暗中创造令人惊喜的意念。

At AD we love playing with it to find new effects, and build up surprising concepts out from darkness. Design— Link between people and technology Nowadays LED technology is a very clear example regarding saving energy and efficiency but at the same time there is a lack of knowledge about that; lighting is under a constant revolution. Stimulo collaborates with AD Lighting to create a new range of

设计- 科技与人类的桥梁

LED street lights. New technology brings the opportunity to

LED是当今社会节能高效技术的一个代表,但同时人 们对LED的了解仍是比较欠缺的,照明技术如今是在持续 的进步革新中。Stimulo跟AD照明合作以开发一系列新 的LED街灯。新的技术使得我们可以带来全新的有创意的 理念。Stimulo 希冀从传统的人们日常所见的物体上得 到灵感去为新的设计打造出一脉相承的DNA。我们想要在 LED技术研发和人们日常需求之间创造一个链接。 迪娜是一款具有广泛用途和强大功能的街灯,它可 以是一个单头的灯体,也可以作为一个组合的一部分, 形成多种组合搭配。一个单头的灯具可以发出线性与垂 直性的光芒,当六组灯具组合安装时,光的投影在地面 上形成新的图案——会让人联想起一个古老的马车车轮, 这样的创意使得一种全新的照明模式诞生了。它的灯光 会在白天的时候消失,而当夜幕降临的时候成为夜景的 一部分。 灯头和灯杆秉承了简洁的几何概念,演绎线条精简 之美,平滑融入到风格各异的城市景观环境中。在白天 隐身了的灯光,晚上就变成了夜景的一部分,而其灯体 用料又是最少的。 DENEB街灯已经获得了包括市场及业 内专家的广泛认可,并获得了2012年度CDA中国设计奖 大奖。

come up with completely different and original concepts. From Stimulo we have been working to build a DNA for these new items inspired in traditional and well known objects related to day to day people. We are creating a link between technology (LED) and people needs. DENEB collection is a versatile and functional street light fitting that can be installed on its own or as part of a modular system, enabling many combinations. A single triangular part with a hole in the middle emits light linearly and directly, while the layout with six parts forms an illuminated circle that adds new patterns to the ground by casting a shadow reminiscent of an old wagon-wheel. Both the light and the post are designed according to the concept of continuous geometry, seeking a smooth transition with no interruptions between the different features that make up the urban landscape. The result is a lamp that disappears during the day to be part of the landscape at night time, minimize the material to produce it. DENEB street light has been honored with the Chinese Design Award 2012. 54


Stimulo的创意节能灯

概念的形成- 用创新的思路去打造AD照明的新DNA

Conceptualization — Creativity focused into AD new DNA Several creative sessions were necessary to find out the right concept. These were the main concept requirements: AESTHETICS Enhancing the perceived value of the product INNOVATIVE In tune with the new DNA brand values and style TECHNICAL Functional, new effects, control the light QUALITY European quality at Chinese cost HUMAN Emotional links, simple, clean, makes you feel

捕捉正确的概念需要遵循几个必要的基本点: “美学”—强化产品的视觉效果 “创新”—打造具有DNA特性的品牌理念和价值 “科技”—用最好的技术来控制光效 “品质”—用中国的成本做出具有欧洲高品质的产品 “人性化”—外形简洁,能够给人带来情感的共鸣 秉承Stimulo 一贯的设计理念,在经过跟客户的反 复沟通和多次修改后,产品的雏形终于破日而出。

Applying Stimulo creoLAB methodology, several concepts were generated and evaluated with the client, and after some modifications the concept finally saw the light of day and started to take shape.

结构深化—产品从理念到实现的关键 结构的深化目的是通过同生产厂家技术部门的沟通 以实现最优化的产品生产方案。这是一个持续的过程, 需要考虑到种种方面,包括如何简化产品使用操作,成 本的控制,以及简化生产工艺等等。 我们的设想是整个产品使用一套金属模具,这主要 是从产品的整体造型和重量角度考虑的。这样出来的产 品品质高端,可以达到我们设计的定位。 DENEB造型设计小巧简洁,独特的结构可以保证光 源正常工作时温度不超过70度;使用光学透镜来精准控 制LED芯片的发光角度,最大程度地减少眩光。 LED芯片使用顶尖品牌如CREE, OSRAM 或PHILIPS, 以保证光效及使用寿命。多个灯头可自由组合,也可高 低安装搭配,适用于庭院小区、城市广场、次干道路、 城市街道以及公共家居、室内空间等场所。

Development— Strength created in China The deployment tasks were focused on the continuous advice to the company's technical department to optimize the product for its serial production. As usual, this is a continuous process which leads to improvement operations, savings in material, improvements in assembly processes, etc. The first decision we made was to use a single mold piece in metal, for both image and weight-feel reasons. Using metal, the perceived quality is higher and allows us to position the item in the targeted segment. DENEB's careful design is compact and in direct contact with the LEDs, allowing for greater heat dissipation, ensuring less than 70 ºC ambience temperature, including various light distributions. The LED technology uses lenses that enable the direction of the light to be controlled and which is more agreeable due to its cut off design, which reduces the angle of glare. Use LEDs from Cree, Osram or Philips. Different combinations can be achieved, such as light heads at different heights, ideal for use in squares, communities, urban roads etc.

产品应用—提供照明解决方案 融合了先进的光学技术、散热设计和光源驱动,AD 照明提供给客户的是一款高品质产品,无需高成本的使 用维护。结合智能建筑照明控制系统,可以最大程度地 彰显LED高效、节能、低碳的优势,打造绿色环保可持 续发展的现代都市。 推出一款成功的新产品是一个持续的过程,Stimulo 在产品推向市场后又设计制作了相应的产品推介资料用 于奖项的申请和展会展示。

Implementation— Lighting solutions Utilizing advanced optical & heat dissipation & driver technology, AD will provide clients superior product with stable performance, thus reduces the maintenance cost. Integrated with architectural lighting control system solutions, it represents the LED advantage of high efficiency & energy saving and low carbon. Hence realizing energy saving and emission reduction green city ,leading the sustainable development. Launching a new product is a non stop process and Stimulo has generated high quality virtual images to edit promotional material for awards applications and trade fairs of the sector.

半硬半软,背包怪杰 ——叶智荣之李宁“POWER PACK”背包 设计案例

ENVIRONMENT ISSUES:

作为一家致力于推广和实践原创设计理念的专业运 动品牌公司,李宁公司从成立之初就非常重视原创设计, 1998年3月,李宁公司率先在广东建成中国第一个运动 服装的设计开发中心。2004年8月,香港设计研发中心 “李宁体育科技发展(香港)有限公司”成立,集中负责 设计李宁品牌服装产品。李宁公司拥有一支享誉业界的 优秀设计专业团队,目前在北京、香港、美国等地共有 超过百人的专业设计人才在从事各个系列运动服装及鞋 产品的设计和开发工作。李宁公司在原创设计方面的投 入,使得“用现代手法诠释东方美感”的李宁品牌广受 市场的好评和行业的尊重,成为了李宁品牌在全球范围 内具有竞争优势的核心区隔点。 2005年,在香港挂牌上市不久的李宁公司和香港贸 发局举办了一场香港设计师的交流会。曾任2002年至 2004年香港计划协会主席的叶智荣先生亦应邀出席了此 次会议。在与李宁公司前品牌总经理聊天时得知李宁正 寻求配件研发方面的合作伙伴。在了解到叶智荣先生曾 经做过的企划之后,李宁公司决定聘请他为配件部为期

三年的首席设计顾问。 2007年叶智荣先生为李宁设计了一款采用车漆工艺 和宇航PC材质的背包,由于造型类似忍者神龟的龟壳, 被形象地称为“龟壳包”。这款“龟壳包”相当吸引眼 球,最初李宁公司担心其夸张造型不会引起人们的购买 欲望,但之后的市场表现证明了这种担心是多余的,消 费者对于新奇造型的接纳程度远远出乎叶智荣先生的想 象。

The Polycarbonate shell is formed by high precision vacuum forming technology, which employs relatively less moulds, dies and consumes less energy for production. The supper thin Polycarbonate shell ( around 1mm ) which employ only 1/3 plastic material compared with the traditional production method. The Li Ning logo was formed by during the shell forming process which save one extra component for environment.

”黒色 “龟壳包 坚强的外

柔软的内

为了方便出行,一般背包的作用是装载衣物、书籍、 生活用品等,可是外出休闲、办公时常需要用到笔记本 电脑、数码摄像机、移动电话等,一般的背包无论是布 制抑或皮制,都无法避免磕磕碰碰等意外给器物带来的 损伤,人们常常为没有一种可以保护电子设备的背包而 遗憾。叶智荣从这个角度出发,设法为人们解决出行携 带物品保护的问题。 要使在撞击、挤压、摔打的时候背包里的物品仍安 然无恙,那么背包的材质一定要坚硬得足够抵抗打击, 而里面又必须柔软到足够避免物品受力损伤。因此产品 的外壳采用超轻量及极坚固之尖端材质—聚碳酸酯(俗 称防弹胶),它原本是被应用在汽车车头灯上的。早期 的车头灯是玻璃材质,但是当汽车开得很快时,飞溅的 石子会像子弹一样打碎车头灯,后来人们才发明了防弹 胶这个材质。叶智荣把这项发明应用到背包上面,向外 的一侧是坚硬的,向内的一侧是柔软的,这样就可以很 有效地保护手机和电脑等电子产品。 实用与美观并重 轻便与环保皆善 设计背包时出于对电子产品的保护,必然要用到坚 硬的材质,但是坚硬的材质往往较重且质感粗糙。这款 背包采用了防弹胶作为外壳,考虑到重量的问题,防弹 胶外壳制成薄片,内层用软料缝制,使背包轻便不少。 为了区分背包的容量,叶智荣特别设置了大小型号,小 码型号背包能容纳一台小型笔记本电脑,而大码型号背 包能容纳两台大型笔记本电脑,并设置了快速开合式拉 链和180度开口及多功能隔层,让用户方便快捷地存取 包内物品。 一切以给人便利为出发点,现代背包出行的人都有 途中汗流、后背尽湿的经历,而大部分背包也会因为汗 水的原因而湿透,里面的东西也遭受影响。因此在设计 时,背垫作立体处理,使它能提供极佳承托及透气排汗 功能。一半硬壳一半布料的设计,一方面能为物品提供 极佳的保护,另一方面能让用户的背部有舒适的感觉。

背包的设计出于保护物体安全的同时也考虑到了环 境的保护,对主体外壳进行加工时采用了高精密热吸塑 处理,使工序简易,以达到减少模具及能源消耗的目的。 另外,用聚碳酸酯(厚度约1mm)作为材料,跟传统生产 模式相比更节省了近三分之二的材料,标志直接在同一 生产工序中压于外层,减少了外加零件及加工能源。 专利保障 活水长流 产品设计出来后,其鲜明的色彩、新颖的造型深受 好评,在包类世界中,很快就引起轰动。按照以往经验, 一个新创意出来,就很容易被人复制模仿。为了避免抄 袭引起商业纠纷和损失,叶智荣为此申请了产品及应用 专利。这是有别于很多其它设计公司的方面之一,许多 设计公司的创新能力很强,但对专利申请并不清楚,缺 乏计划性。 在专利申请领域有三个不同标准,最为基本的是外 观专利,但通常这种专利的申请并不具有效果,一款产 品别人并不全剽窃,只剽窃80%,那么外观专利就无法 起到作用。专利保护的最高境界是发明专利,保护期二 十年,但是申请特别困难。叶智荣先生将专利申请的重 点放在介于两者之间的实用新型专利。实用新型专利是 指对产品的形状、构造或者其结合所提出的适于实用的 新的技术方案,保护期十年,保护范围比较广,而且申 请速度也比较快。 在与李宁公司合作的三年间,叶智荣帮李宁公司创 造了数十项创新发明产品,并顺利拿到设计和发明的专 利。叶智荣是所有产品的发明人,产权归李宁公司所有。 而这款“POWER PACK”背包,更在2007年荣获红星奖、 2008年荣获德国IF设计奖。叶智荣先生为李宁公司共申 请了四十多项实用新型专利和两项发明专利。每一项专 利都可以衍生出上千款新产品,关键在于怎样应用这些 专利,李宁的产品每三个月需换季下架,市场销售时间 短,但龟壳包所采用的车漆工艺以及宇航PC材质的功能, 仍被广泛应用到其它新产品的设计上。


设计案例 DESIGN CASES

在中国,“厨房里的重油烟”是 仅次于“吸烟”的肺癌第二大致病源。 多年来油烟机的设计思路也始终围绕 着“提高电机功率,增大风量”来解 决油烟问题。但提高功率的同时伴随 而来的是巨大噪音的产生,并且油烟 有其特有“生成—扩散”的规律:如 果未能在油烟生成之初将其吸走,待 油烟扩散之时,即使再大的功率与风 量,对四向扩散的油烟也难以控制。 为了彻底消除“油烟困扰”,我 们在设计JQ01的过程中,首先通过下 移进风口,使油烟、进风口、风机第 一次排列在了同一条直线上,开创性 地为油烟机带来了“最短油烟路径”, 使油烟在形成之初、扩散之前就被吸 走,革命性地提高了吸油烟效率。接 着我们为油烟机带来了“隔烟屏”, 它是在进风口上端安置的一块挡烟板, 彻底将人与油烟隔离,不容一丝油烟 扩散。真正实现了“人与油烟零接触” 的终极健康体验。当烹饪结束,“隔 烟屏”会自动关闭,将进风口彻底隐 藏,产品又恢复“纯平设计”——简

约又便于清洁。 极致简约表面下蕴藏着强悍的健 康体验,这便是极致设计。此款产品 上市3个月便进入畅销吸油烟机排行 榜的前3名。并且由于其“健康理念” 为油烟机设计领域开拓了崭新视角, 红点专家评审会授予其“2013年红点 荣誉提名奖”。这是对我们设计探索 的巨大肯定与鼓励。

风魔方近吸式油烟机 PDC参展商杭州瑞德设计

In China, cooking oil fumes are the second most serious source of lung cancer, only next to cigarette smoking. Over the years, the design of range hoods has always been around "how to improve motor powers and increase the blowing rates" to solve the problem of cooking oil fumes . However, the problem of loud noises is coming along with the increasement of powers. The fumes have their unique rule of "generating - spreading": If the fumes are not sucked 59

away the moment they are generated, it would be difficult to control them even with more powers and higher blowing rates when they begin to spread around. In order to completely solve this fumes problem, during the design of JQ01, we firstly aligned the fumes, air inlet and the fan for the first time to create "the shortest fume path", which revolutionarily improves the efficiency by sucking away the fumes before they spread. Secondly, we introduced a "smoke barrier" above the air inlet, which completely isolates the fumes from people and avoids spreading. When the cooking is finished, the "smoke barrier" will shut automatically and conceal the air inlet, and the product returns to look "flat" again simple and easy to clean. The powerful health experience is hidden under the surface of extreme simplicity, and this is the ultimate of design. This product had been on the list of Top 3 of range hood selling within 3 months since it was launched into the market. It was awarded "2013 red dot honorable nomination" by the red dot Expert Review Committee because its "health concept" had opened up new perspectives for range hood design. This is the great affirmation and encouragement to our design exploration.


The modern fast pace of life requires a product of slow life as a spice. The design of this aroma burner got inspiration from the Chinese censer which has a history of a thousand years. We merge cultural meanings in the design and bring out a special connotation and unique composition. The container is in unenclosed structure, which makes the operation and cleaning more convenient. The material of metal represents a modern sense. The multi-point spray nozzles create a smoking filled effect, and also bring more aroma efficiency. The adjustable fog spraying and lighting effects make this product more perfect.

新茶器时代 Tea Boiler

茶是全世界流行的饮品。这个煮茶器的设计灵感来 源于古代的灯笼。跟据市调了解到, 很多年轻人喜欢喝 各种不同口味的茶,但是排斥传统茶具带来的不便,因此 我们针对这个需求设计出使泡茶过程变得很轻松的产品 ——能简化泡茶步骤,提高效率。该煮茶器能吸引眼球 是因为其材料结合了高质量的玻璃和金属,创造出极简 的时尚感,以扩展年轻人的茶市场。茶叶和茶是分离的, 因此茶叶不会产生过度的浸泡——在这个过程中沸腾的 水流过水管,洒在茶叶上,可以依照个人喜好增减浓度。 它是新时代时尚的自动泡茶器具。 60

Tea is a popular drink worldwide. The design of this tea boiler is inspired by the Chinese ancient lanterns. According to market research, many young people like to drink a variety of tea with different flavors, but at the same time, they reject the inconvenience of traditional tea sets. So we design this product to make it easy during the tea-making process - it can simplify the steps and improve efficiency. What also attract eyeballs are the materials combined with high quality glass and metal, creating a sense of minimalist fashion to expand the young people's tea market. In this design, the tea is separated from water to avoid excessive immersion - the boiling water sprinkles over the tea through the pipe, thus the concentration of tea can be increased or decreased according to personal preference. This really is a fashionable automatic tea utensil in the new era.

PDC潮流趋势解读现场

文 / 彭亮

第一、自然与生态 关键词:自然、生态、绿色、健康、 可循环制造 趋势解析: 自然的外观和自然的材料能够传 达出一种真诚的品质,让实木和贴木 皮家具继续大行其道。环保和可持续 发展的意识,应当成为当代家居设计 的重要先决条件。 当人们强化对生态环境的关心和 自然资源的节约,使再循环制造的家 具设计运动正在日益受到重视和流行。 第二、新古典与新中式

关键词:新古典、新中式、新东方、 新北欧

趋势解析: 现在是新中式复兴的大好时机。 新中式更多的是一种“根”的气质, 用现代元素包裹中式传统灵魂,形成 新中式的核心理念。大量的新中式设 计证明,手工编织、刺绣、雕花和手 工绘画,同时与高科技的激光雕刻、 数字印刷相结合,赋予现代家具更多 的文化情感与装饰细节,手工艺复兴 的家具经常暗喻传统样式或后现代主 题直接提升产品的附加值。 曾经在20世纪50年代风靡全球的 北欧家居设计风格由于其“生态有机” 的设计美学将再次成为21世纪的主流。

第三、组合与模块 关键词:组合、模块、小体型、定制 家具、整体家居 趋势解析: 模块化是现代家具的新潮流,值 得深入研究探讨。模组的家具让你很 快地而且容易地定制你的生活空间, 以便改变建筑空间而且以不一般的方 式感觉。越来越多的人希望拥有柔性 模组的家具产品,定制整体家居成时 尚主流。 65

家具的体型越来越小,单身主义 与小空间居室的盛行,让多功能的小 体型组合模块家具开始走向市场的上 游,不仅指软体家具,还包括小型的 书桌和办公家具。此外,人们更易变 换居住环境和地点的现状也让这类家 具的体型更为轻质和灵活。 第四、柔性与圆润 关键词:柔性、园润、曲线、生物、 有机 趋势解析: 柔性与园润的生物体是大自然造 就的奇葩,具有无穷的魅力,也是设 计师用来发散思维、获取灵感的捷径。 家居设计将会演绎仿生的概念,例如 按照人体曲线和弧度来制造的座椅, 仿树叶造型的躺椅和沙发等,为了制 造家中的和谐气氛,家具外型自然也 走向圆弧、轻盈,甚至带点趣味成分。 今天,有机设计已不是一种怀旧 风格,而是以一种极度迷人和富有灵 感的形式再生,从“苹果产品”到“ 有机建筑”,从“汽车造型”到“家 居产品”都呈现柔性与园润的有机设 计风潮。


In the initial stage of the market economy, the success of manufacturing depends on filling the market vacancies. When the market develops to a mature stage, the ultimate success of products will depend on the terminal feedbacks, of which the fundamental lies in the integrated terminal solutions consisted of consumer demands and problem-solving methods. Most importantly, furniture enterprises have to have design strategies and innovations. The core factor of the economic structure of Chinese furniture industry is that design and innovation can be used as a strategic weapon. Design has been upgraded from the basic functional and aesthetic pursuit to a strategic and systematic level, which can create more value for business strategies, products and services. 家居时尚产品设计

间的长短,强调设计师在设计创作中 应处于一种平和、放松、随性的感知 状态,即遵从内心最率真的状态。慢 设计的宗旨并不宏伟,只是希望人们 在追求物质生活的过程中,有那么一 刻,倾听心灵,关怀生命,享受生活。

文 / 菲利普科恩

巴黎是著名的时装设计之都,而 巴黎时装周更是时装界的领头羊。数 以千计的品牌创意设计师,行业协会 的买家和卖家们都选择在这个重要的 时刻齐聚法国首都谈生意,谈有关潮 流新的趋势和未来的走向。巴黎的时 尚产业在世界上影响力巨大,更是欧 洲的旗舰产业。在巴黎,无论是在豪 华奢侈品牌,或者是中间价位的品牌 商品,都在世界服装市场占有非常大 的比例。巴黎时装的成功,是建立在 尊重传统,专业技能和创造力之上的。 其中,设计师是此行业的驱动力。反 之,消费者对其设计的认可成就了设 计师在这个行业中的身份和地位。 中国各个城市的服装行业和协会 都热衷于与欧洲时装设计师交流与合 作。此次中国服装行业设计师以及各 协会的巴黎之行,就是为了更好地了 解世界时装的走向,中西融合。 如今,中国不但是世界第二经济 大国,它也是继美国、日本之后第三 大服装潮流市场。近年来,中国政府 部门制定了大力发展创意产业经济的 政策,并大力发展服务产业,转变经 济增长方式,实现从“中国制造”到 “中国创造”。在这种背景下,以政 府搭台,民间运作为主体的北京、上

海、深圳和广州四地举办的时装表演 和展览,都已经在业内具有很强的影 响力。例如,每年三月举办的中国国 际服装服饰博览会,就非常有力地推 动了中国时装界的发展,并使中国成 为了法国和意大利波特的第一出口市 场。中国深圳和广州南部也相继成为 服装制造中心、经销商等。 令我惊讶的是,中国时装设计在 巴黎时装周上表现的风格是非常保守 的,这与我对中国大型代表团在戛纳 电影节、法兰克福市场的音乐展、米 兰或柏林的书画展的表现给我的印象, 是大相径庭的。 与国际时尚接轨是中国发展其服 装市场的重要策略。到目前为止,纺 织服装产业在全球价值超过1000亿美 元,而时尚产业则是纺织服装产业的 驱动力。因为,时尚产业的发展,带 动了零售、旅游产业、电子商务的发 展,以及新技术的应用。此外,纺织 品不仅推动就业,促进财富增加,也 是对当地文化和技艺、社会价值和遗 产的另一种延生。时尚更是一个国家 对生活品味和生活质量的表达和追求。 中国时尚产业的发展与国际同步是非 常必要的,这将有助于刺激本土创作 和人才培养,对传统工艺的重新发现 67

以及深度挖掘;深一步来说,这对具 有丰富历史的文化产业的重新分配都 有着举足轻重的意义。 在某种程度上,人们对时尚的投 资,反映出一个国家对其国情了解以 及对社会趋势的把握,同时更代表一 种社会演变。在这个层面上,中国的 潮流创造者,应该在发展本土和全球 的时尚产业的同时,结合城市密集度 和相应的文化资源,从而更好的满足 各类需求。 由于时尚与奢华息息相关,因此 人们追求时尚品味,是社会分化的一 个标志。穿着路易•威登、巴宝莉或 古琦等奢侈品牌,不但是社会分化的 一个标志,它还代表着快乐与放纵。 奢侈品牌投入数亿万美元的策略,是 想捕捉时尚中国女性和男性对他们品 牌的向往以及品牌为个体带来优越身 份的一种象征。仅在 2012 年,PPR 集团(现名 kering)(如他们代理的古 琦、巴黎世家、圣•罗兰等品牌)在亚 洲占其全球总销售额的35%,大约为 65亿欧元,与2011年同期增长了14%。 不可否认的是,中国人对奢侈品 牌的模仿将依然持续,但是模仿也有 其他选择的可能性。因此,中国和国 际的消费者,将很快地切换到中国质


量品牌服装上,并更加注重原创。随 着中国中产阶级数量接近3亿人,服 装市场潜力无疑是非常巨大的。就像 之前日本大力鼓励开关创作的年轻设 计师们一样,中国也希望传承中国祖 传工艺(例如刺绣),从而促进新的审 美准则。 如果中国也希望成为新的壮观、 美丽和时尚的魅力大国,必须大力鼓 励创造性人才。首先最重要的是政府 应该制定政策着眼于对设计人员的培 训,在城市集群发展,促进专业和行 业之间的相互作用和相互影响。其次 是中国的发行商和投资者们,应大力 鼓励支持本地创作者的创作。城市和 时装协会应派送最有潜力的的时装设 计师到国外参加时装展销会,使设计 人员能够发挥自身技能并与欧洲设计 师们进行创作交流。中国金融从业者 们,也必须支持建立中国时尚品牌并 承担品牌创建的风险。最后,中国也 必须建立培育创意公司的生态系统, 培养微观企业的创新精神。这些举措, 将会鼓励欧洲时装学校来中国开学校 以及创建设计工作室,从而对中国的 服装市场带来商机。

深圳设计师邓欢欢作品

时尚已经成为财富。巴黎、米兰、纽约、东京和伦敦等地,都是举世闻 名的时尚之都。时尚为国家增添了国际影响力,它将为中国带来渴望的国际 地位和形象,以及为各大城市带来新的生机。此前人们普遍认为,时尚只是 源自米兰、巴黎、伦敦、纽约或柏林,这种观念已经被质疑,正如同布鲁塞 尔和纽约不再是当代艺术交易的唯一市场一样。

从Fast Fashion说起 —本土服装企业ODM&OBM之路

作为本土最大的运动品牌,自 1994年以来,李宁一直保持着中国体 育用品市场的领头地位。但近年来服 装行业迅速发展,竞争激烈,李宁和 国内服装行业都面临了一个普遍的问 题--库存积压。为了缓解这一问题, 李宁与凡客诚品合作,在凡客官网上 进行了48小时大甩卖,部分产品价格 甚至低至一折,通过这种电商“闪购” 的方式来缓解库存压力。 相关产业的季报显示,22家A股 服装类上市公司第三季度的存货总量 已达到了382亿元人民币。这些库存 服装即使全国服装企业停产,也足够 让中国人穿上三年。另外,今年上半 年,安踏、361度、特步、匹克等42 家上市服装企业存货总量高达483亿 元,其中存货最多的是雅戈尔,还 有红豆股份、美邦服饰及森马服饰等 服装品牌,而存货量低于1亿元的只 有四家。 与此形成鲜明对比的是,以 ZARA和H&M为代表的快时尚之风席卷 全球,并迅速入侵中国市场,给传统 服装企业以巨大的威胁。1975年设立 于西班牙的ZARA,隶属于Inditex集 团,为全球排名第三、西班牙排名第 一的服装商,截止2012年,ZARA分店 分布在全球5大洲86个国家和地区, 共有1925间分店,销售额为10,541亿 欧元。ZARA 为快时尚最具代表性的 品牌,快时尚的每一款服装的生产数 量都很少,款式非常多,全年能够推 出10000余款能够上市的服装产品, 从设计到上架平均周期是两周左右, 库存周转时间非常快,一年会周转10 次左右。因此,类如ZARA这类的快时 尚品牌库存压力相对较小。 这种强烈的反差,源自中国消费 者的快速成长与变化,也反映出本土 服装企业商业模式及生产制造模式的 逐渐落伍。中国从上世纪末以来在国 际上被誉为“世界工厂”,在世界产 业链中,表明了中国的OEM扮演了非

委托制造方,由制造方从设计到生产 一手包办,而最终产品贴上采购方的 品牌且由采购方负责销售的生产方式。 OBM(Original Brand Manufacturing) 即自有品牌生产,亦作原创品牌设计, 所指的就是生产商有自行建立自有品 牌,并以此品牌行销市场的一种作法。 它们三者的区别在于,A方看中B方的 产品,让B方生产,用A方商标,这叫 OEM;A方自营渠道和品牌,让B方组 织设计和生产,这叫ODM;A方自营渠 道和品牌,外包市场营销策略、设计 及生产给B方,这叫OBD;或B方直接 自营品牌,这也叫OBM。 和众多中国服装企业一样,总部 位于深圳的联怡时装设计有限公司, 从传统的OEM模式转型为ODM & OBM的 经营模式,并建立了一套完整的品牌 开发合作流程 常重要的角色,成为了代工王国。OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturing) 指由采购方提供设备和技术,由制造 方提供人力和场地,采购方负责销售, 制造方负责生产的一种现代流行的生 产方式。本土服装企业也曾经凭借在 OEM制造上的优势,在全球服装出口 上占有极重的比例。但近年出口形势 日益严峻,本土服装企业纷纷转战内 销市场。 然而,本土服装品牌依旧靠扩张 渠道作为最直接的利润增长来源,这 种粗放式的增长已经不再适应市场化 的需求。传统的OEM模式是制造上的 优势,反而成为阻碍快时尚发展的重 要原因,在快时尚发展如此迅猛的今 天,中国服装企业纷纷转型投身快时 尚,但受到传统OEM模式的影响,我 国大多数OEM供应商处于世界产业链 的中间环节,利润微薄,面临国内、 国际的激烈竞争,发展举步维艰。 因此,中国服装中小企业必须勇 敢走ODM/OBM(自主品牌)转型之路, 以便闯出高附加价值的企业经营,走 出一条康庄大道。ODM (Original Design Manufacturing) 指由采购方 71

通过与班尼路、伊藤忠及吉之岛 等知名企业的合作,公司重视自主研 发,致力于各类产品和时尚服饰的设 计和生产,以客为本,以质求效,时 尚创新,集时装设计开发及供应链管 理于一体,提供客户既安全又有经济 效益的专业服务。 2013年整个服装行业并没有从低 迷的市场环境呈现上升的趋势,仍然 面临一系列的问题, 以ZARA和H&M为 代表的快时尚之风席卷全球,迅速入 侵中国市场,还有国内服装企业面临 向ODM&OBM的转型压力,对于国内来 说,服装企业必须探究符合自身发展 之路才是首要策略。


Fast Fashion, Inevitable for Chinese Clothiers? Chinese domestic clothing enterprises going ODM & OBM By Percy Yung Overstock, the nightmare of retailing, it plaques even the strongest player in the field. Li Ning, being a leading sporting goods and apparel retailer in China faces the same inventory plight and deals with it with the same conventional tools like many others - massive markdowns. Li Ning dumped its stocks through one of the more successful digital retailer in China, Vancl, as low as 90% off its regular price tags that hurts the group's profits immensely. In China, there are about 22 A-share listed companies whose inventory level combined have reached an overwhelming thirty-eight billion RMB only for the third quarter according to a report. To put such staggering number into some context, it well covers clothing needs for the whole Chinese population for the next three years. If we look at the same figures from other non-A-share listed, but still listed Chinese clothiers, the number is even more worrisome, it has reached over forty-eight billion RMB by only the first half of the year. Some of these troubled clothiers include ANTA, 361 Degrees, XTEP, Peak Sport, etc., a m o n g w h i c h , Yo u n g o r , H o d o , Metersbonwe and Semir tops the chart. There were only 4 listed companies reported an inventory of less than RMB 100 millions. Too much inventory warrants trouble for clothiers, leads to markdowns and write -offs, impedes profit and hampers substantially on their cash flow. Fast fashion seems to be a promising way out. The fast fashion concept draws a lot of attention both worldwide and in China increasingly. It is believed that whoever masters the key to the fast fashion concept, embraces and adepts it, wins. The more successful practitioners including Zara and H&M have shown strong results even in the unfavorable prevailing economy. Zara of the Inditex Group, being the most renowned fast fashion retailer, ranked Spanish number 1 and world number 3 in the clothing retailing landscape. At the close of 2012, Zara had 1925 stores in 86 markets in five continents, with €10,541 million sales. China continued to be the market with the largest number of inaugurations, 121 in 2012, with a total of 396 stores. Zara crunches out an incredible number of styles per year, well over 10 thousands

of designs made their way from the drawing board to the shop floor with an unbelievable turnaround rate of 2 weeks. Zara flips its inventory 10 times a year which demonstrates huge difference to those names aforementioned. The Zara success in China demonstrated how rapid the change of consumer demands in the Chinese clothing market. The Zara success also renders some of the highly adopted business strategies in the industry obsolete. China's clothing market is transforming, coming out of the aged OEM model and move rapidly towards an ODM model and eventually an OBM model. Being the most sought original equipment manufacturer or an OEM in the global marketplace, China earned its share, knowledge and skills via working for offshore brands and fashion labels for decades. Recent export demand curbs encouraged the emergence of the domestic clothing markets. Chinese consumers' most basic needs were fulfilled by the wealth of knowledge and quality of the products produced by the OEMs, Internet helps maturing such consumer demands at unprecedented speed. Internet connects people to the world, aspires people and drives 72

competitions. A clothier will not be sustainable hanging on the past, being merely an OEM. Like export demand curbs led to the emergence of the Chinese domestic fashion & clothing market, the change of consumer demands calls for some new game changers. Blindly expending retail footage will no longer be a viable option as it has become very expensive and thus inefficient. To be sustainable, a clothier needs to put fashion back into the fashion business, turns their products fast enough and offers as much variety as it could to fulfill its consumers, to increase the marginal utility of its products to its consumers and earn a higher margin. Profit is the only thing that matter after all. This echoes with the fast fashion concepts and calls for adaptation of new strategies such as original design manufacturing (ODM) and original brand manufacturing (OBM) that bring about product and service innovations, instill strong brand equity and thus make a successful brand. Headquarters in Shenzhen, China, Magenta & Partners Studio Company Limited (Magenta) successfully underwent the very transformation from


潮流趋势 TRENDS

an OEM to an ODM & OBM practitioner with a set of well-built and tested methodologies in fashion brand development. Magenta renders cost-effective turnkey ODM and OBM solutions, from fashion design and development to supply chain management, to some of the major clothing enterprises in China including Baleno, Aeon Jusco, Itochu, etc. 2013 is a challenging year for all Chinese clothiers and it is thought to be more tough years to come. In order to weather through the storm, clothiers need to vigorously assess and review their business strategies to better cope with the ever-changing taste and demand of their consumers, just like Zara and H&M. Failing to do so faces an inevitable doom.

设计改变世界

一、什么是设计?设计师如何能成功? 好的设计,就是让产品以便宜的价格、创意的手段来改变生活, 能使产品更加好看、实用、有意义。 二、设计的发展可以分成三个阶段: (一)制造产品:创造更美好、有意义 (二)创造新的经验:创造出新的体验 (三)创造价值:通过市场调研,进行沟通与交流,设计出有意义 的产品 三、设计可分为三个层面: (一)设计是关于逻辑:指最基础的层面,产品设计的作用、使用 力(度) (二)设计是关于魔术:指产品设计的物理功能,能够引起人们来 使用它 (三)设计是关于音乐:指人们从产品的使用过程中获得愉悦 四、设计师是由什么构成的? 设计师有三个不同的功能: (一)设计师是一个概念者:能提出新的想法、概念,把自己的想 法传达给别人 (二)设计师是一个联系者:把许多想法融合起来,创造更高、更 大的价值 (三)设计师是一个实干者:引领自己的团队或者做出自己的设计 五、设计师的设计概念结构剖析 (一)皮肤:指设计的形式 (二)骨骼:指设计的功能 (三)灵魂:指设计的意义 六、杰出设计师必须具备的素质 (一)头脑:用来思考和揣测用户需求(包括想法和概念) (二)心灵:以人为本的角度来对待用户(关于顾客的感受) (三)胆量:提供及传达所有你认为是正确的想法

一、设计是关于品牌 品牌是设计中最主要的因素,还需要考虑到营销和社会问题。 通过产品的形状、颜色、内容,人们将认识和了解某个品牌。 二、设计需要策略 设计需要正确的策略,才能在市场上取得成功。 三、设计是关于价值的创造 设计除了把东西变得更加漂亮,考虑设计是否能让产品更省 钱、更有用,同时也是一种价值的创造。 四、设计是可以改变世界 创新不仅是一项职业,通过网络资源的学习每个人都能产生一 些非常有创意的想法及项目,设计新的产品。这样将影响到所 生活的社区改变。

PDC: How are your overseas sales going on with current situation of international economy?

PDC:在目前国际经济形势背景下,公司的海外市场 方面的情况怎么样?

Fotile: Different from most of other Chinese manufacturers who are still in their stage of OEM or ODM, we are mainly focusing on building our brand in overseas markets. Our positioning is really high in these markets, and the prices may not be lower than those of congeneric products from Europe or the United States. So our first step of going out into the international markets had been very difficult, but we had also mentally prepared. During an economic downturn, low-priced products don't sell well, however, the high-end products may not be as vulnerable as what we anticipate. So despite that we had a rough beginning going out, we will stick firmly to our goal of building our brand internationally, and believe that we can do better and achieve it eventually. Fotile is currently in the leading position of the Chinese market, however, our vision is to become a respected world-class enterprise in the long run.

方太:我们做海外市场跟目前很多国内其他企业不一样, 我们现在主要是做品牌,中国很多其他的企业还停留在

OEM或者ODM的阶段,做自主品牌的很少,而且我们定 位很高,价格比欧美国家的产品也不见得会便宜,所以 说我们在走出去的时候就已经很难了,也有了心理准备。 在经济不景气的时候,低价产品的出口量往往会减少, 但高档的产品却不一定会受到很大的影响,所以虽然我 们前期走出去的时候很艰难,但是我们有目标,而且很 坚定,坚持做自己的品牌,所以相信会做得越来越好。 我们企业目前在中国还算是领先的,对于全球,我们的 长远目标是做一个受人尊敬的世界一流的企业,这是我 们的愿景。 格力:我们也能感觉到市场上的压力,特别是传统市场,

Gree: We can feel the pressures from our overseas markets, especially from our traditional markets such as Europe and America with financial crisis, and new markets such as Venezuela and Iran with political crisis. But on the whole Gree is still having good performance. In 2012, our sales increased by nearly 20%, with a profit growth of over 40%.

如欧美的金融危机,还有新兴国家比如委内瑞拉、伊朗 的政治危机导致的市场波动和压力。但整体上格力的表 现还好,在2012年我们还能做到逆势增长,销售额增长 接近20%,利润增长超过40%,是目前家电行业唯一的 专业化的跨入一千亿元俱乐部的企业。 82

PDC:What do you think of the development of Industrial Design in China?

博乐设计:现在这个阶段真正是工业设计的春天。从几

Bole Design: Now it is the spring of industrial design in China. Firstly, we have the policy environment. Our country is unprecedentedly emphasizing on industrial design these years, and many local governments are attaching great importance to building design bases of various characteristics. Secondly, we have the industrial environment. There are so many manufacturing enterprises in China, which are the service recipients of industrial design. They are providing industrial design with a platform and opportunities, especially now when many of them are under the period of transition and innovation. And the markets today are also calling for industrial design. So I can say it is the best time for it now.

个方面来说:一是政策环境,国家是前所未有地重视工 业设计,政府部门也很重视,在各地建设特色设计基地。 二是产业环境,现在有那么多的生产制造企业,这都是 工业设计可以服务的,是工业设计施展实力的舞台。现 在很多企业在转型,在发展创新,这是一个非常好的契 机。工业设计可以帮助企业在转型发展的过程中输入设 计的力量,这是转型的原动力。所以无论从政策环境、 产业环境、市场环境还是时间点上来说,这都是一个非 常好的机会。 PDC:为什么说博乐设计是以定位为核心的?

博乐设计:在所有的设计项目里面,我们都一直强调一 点,就是为什么而设计?也就是一个设计的方向。如果 没有清晰的定位,设计往哪个方向去走,或者如何评价 这一个设计,都会失去方向。所谓的定位像做人一样, 找到一种性格。我对产品应该赋予一种什么样的生命, 什么样的性格,找准了定位之后,那么接下来的设计就 会跟这家企业、这个品牌相匹配。

have always been stressing in all our design projects. This is about the direction of design, and we need clear positioning to lead our design to the right direction. Clear positioning also helps to shape the features of the product, as well as determines how the design matches with the brand and production of the enterprise. 83


PDC:你们的作品大部分也可以归为“艺术”一类, 您认为艺术与设计有什么不一样的地方?你们是如 何处理这两者之间的关系的? Agape设计: 两种完全不同的感觉。跟艺术家相比,当

PDC:Your products can mostly be rated as "Art". Are there any differences between "Art" and "Design"? How do you deal with these two in your work?

你留意某一个设计师的风格时,你会发现他的作品建立 在更多不同的基础上,设计师是基于某种感想、想法或 要求开始进行设计,并且尝试做一些特别的东西。然而, 艺术家则是更理想化,对现实生活没有太多的考虑。当 我们同时拥有艺术家和设计师时,这意味着在一大系列 的产品方面,有用的东西有很多。我们的作用是为他们 两者之间建立一个正确的联系,尝试将设计师往艺术感 方向推进;将艺术家往现实感方向靠拢。我的工作就是 将设计师和艺术家的创造力、想法和感觉与现实和市场 的要求匹配起来。

Agape Design:Two different feelings, completely. When you follow a designer's style, his\her work begins more from different bases than an artist because he\she normally starts from some impressions, some specific ideas or requirements and tries to do something special. However, an artist is more ideal and without much regard to the reality of life. When we have an artist and a designer together, this means something usable for a big range of products. Our function is to make the right connection between them, trying to move a designer forward to an artistic feeling and move an artist forward to a practical feeling. My job specifically is to be in the middle trying to match their creativities, ideas and feelings with the reality, and with the market requirements.

PDC:格力对于“创新”是怎么看的?

PDC:What is your understanding of "innovation"?

格力:创新代表了国家的竞争力,也是企业的灵魂。

够连续18年获得销售冠军的核心竞争力之一。至于在产 品设计方面,我们很多产品也曾获得国内外的众多奖项, 包括柏林设计奖金奖等。

Gree: Innovation represents the competitiveness of the country, and is also the soul of enterprise. In 2011, Gree obtained a total of 2400 new patents, bringing our products really strong competitiveness. Innovation is not just in the technical aspects, but also in creative models of marketing, which make Gree the sales champion for 18 consecutive years in the domestic market. As for product design, many of our products have obtained numerous awards at home and abroad, including the German design award.

PDC:海信的研发团队规模有多大?在设计创新方 面投入的比重怎么样?

PDC:How big is Hisense R&D team? What about the investment in design and innovation?

海信:海信工业设计部门目前有一百多人,同时我们在

Hisense: Currently there are more than 100 R&D personnels in Hisense Industrial Design Department. We also have our R&D branches in the United States and Europe. Same as other large international companies, Hisense is following a fundamental principle that 7% -8% of annual turnover is used in R&D, and out of which 7% -8% is used in product design according to market requirements each year. However, the proportion of investment in industrial design is incalculable, because in fact there are too many factors related to it.

2011年全年格力就一共有2400多项专利问世,这些创 新给我们的产品带来了非常大的竞争力。创新不仅仅是 在技术方面,而且还有营销模式的创新,我们的国内区 域销售公司制度一直是我们这么多年在国内销售市场能

美国和欧洲设立了分部,相对来说,美国的分部比欧洲 的大。海信和国际上的大公司都有一个基本原则,7%-

8%的销售额是用在研发上的,而在研发里至少有 7%8%会用在产品设计上,根据市场的需求每年进行调配。 而工业设计的研发比重是无法计算的,因为其实很多东 西都跟工业设计有关系。

PDC:方太成立了“宁波创新研究院”,能说一下 这个项目的基本情况吗? 方太:这个机构主要是研究客户长期需求以及未来发展

PDC:Can you tell us something about Fotile's "Ningbo Institute of Innovation"? Fotile: Many big brands such as Samsung have their own research institutes, so do we. The main purpose of setting up our own institute is to make in-depth study and research of the long-term needs of customers and the future trends of the markets with a forward-looking vision, and to make technical reserve. We have to be the leader of this industry, and at least for now there is no problem in China, but we are looking further into the international markets. Discourse power comes from study and research, and we hope to be able to lead more trends of the market in the future. That is why we have to set up our own research institute.

趋势,用前瞻性的目光做市场调研和深入研究,做一个 技术的积累。其他很多大的品牌企业比如三星等都有自 己的研究院,我们也是一样,目的就是在于做技术储备 和趋势了解。我们要做这个行业的领头羊,至少目前在 中国是没有问题的,我们也希望以后在国际上也是一样。 没有研究就没有话语权,我们目前是产品领先,但我们 希望以后能更多地引领市场的趋势,所以必须要成立这 样的一个机构,在了解市场趋势的同时,做技术储备。

Brands

PDC:格力认为品牌的创造、培养和经营的关键因 素是什么?

PDC:What do you think are the key factors in brand creating, cultivating and managing?

格力:品牌是企业的生命,这是不管国家层面还是企业

Gree: A brand is the life of an enterprise. This is a very essential point from both levels of the nation and enterprise. We have a saying: "An enterprise without a well-known brand is ugly; and the one without technical innovation is spineless." The creation of a brand and its sustainable development requires a lot of factors which are working together, and first there must be a technical support. Gree's investment in its brand building and technological innovation is very large and unlimited, which in 2012 was over 4 billion yuan and in 2013 over 3 billion. We now have over 5000 engineers and R&D staff, and many national and provincial laboratories and institutes, which we consider our core competitiveness in the industry of air conditioning. Gree is now the only world famous brand in China's air-conditioning industry, and this honorable recognition comes from our long-term efforts of proprietary brand development and enhancement.

层面都非常重视的一点。我们有一句话是这样说的: “没有知名品牌的企业是一个丑陋的企业,没有技术创 新的企业是一个没有脊梁的企业。”一个品牌不是单纯 的一个因素或者几个因素能够造就的,要可持续的发展 需要很多因素结合在一起。品牌的打造需要做很多基础 工作,但首先必须要有技术的支撑,格力在品牌打造和 技术创新方面的投入是非常大并且不设上限的,2012年 的投入超过了40亿元人民币,2013年也超过30亿元人民 币。我们现在有五千多个工程研发人员、两个国家重点 实验室、两个国家级的研究所、一个省级的重点研究室、 四个研究院、二十八个研究所和四百多个实验室,这个 在空调行业里是最最核心的竞争力。格力是中国空调行 业中唯一的世界名牌,这个荣誉是对于我们长期坚持自 主品牌发展、提升品牌含金量的认可。

PDC:作为国内厨具的第一品牌,您认为方太的产 品在同行业的众多品牌中的突出优势在哪里?

PDC:What do you think make Fotile the most famous brand of kitchen ware in China?

方太:我们刚开始做方太品牌的时候就很注重差异化和

Fotile: We have been focusing on our product differentiation and core strengths since we started the brand of Fotile. There are three aspects that make our products superior to others: design, quality and core strengths. Basing on the requirements and interests of customers, we have been investing a lot in the design and development of our core technologies.

核心优势;就现在来说,有三点:设计、品质、核心优 势。我们很注重产品核心技术的研发和投入,同时,我 们是以顾客的需求点和利益点作为设计和开发的出发点。

85


设计与合作 Design and Cooperation

PDC:格力在自主创新自主设计的基础上,是否会 有外部设计公司的合作?

PDC: Besides independent design and innovation, what do you think of the cooperation with third-party design companies?

Gree: We hope to see more design resources and we are happy to learn from them. In fact, many of our world leading technologies were originally learnt, digested and absorbed from our competing brands and other world leading brands. Currently Gree has been in the forefront of the air conditioning industry in terms of appearance design, product functionality design and the development of core technologies; however, as the leader of this industry, we also feel lonely with few competitors. So we will have to play with other better design companies while remaining our independency in R&D and design.

格力:如果能有更多的元素、更多的帮助力量融入,这 是我们希望看到的,我们也很乐意向他们学习。包括我 们现在全球领先的技术,也是在不断向竞争品牌、向国 际领先品牌学习的基础上消化、吸收,才到现在的引领。 从另外方面讲,不管是外观设计、产品功能设计,还是 核心技术的开发,目前格力已经走在整个空调行业的最 前沿,我们是整个行业的引领者,也有一种曲高和寡、 独上高楼的感觉。目前我们整个研发体系和设计还是以 自力更生为主,同时我们也十分乐意向好的资源学习。 PDC:在产品设计方面,海信与外部设计公司进行 合作的情况怎么样?

PDC: How is your cooperation with third-party design companies in product design? Hisense: 20% of our projects each year are done together with foreign design companies, and the others are completed independently in our own industrial design center. Cooperation with external design companies is a must because one cannot solve all the problems with own strength and with blocked communications in the industry. In addition, we can improve better by absorbing new ideas from the outside world.

海信:海信每年有20%的项目是与外国设计公司一起合 作的,其他的则是由我们工业设计中心自己独立完成。 完全靠自身的实力是解决不了问题的,这样与业界的交 流是闭塞的,所以一定要与外面开展合作。此外,外国 的设计机构能带动我们水平的提高,通过吸纳外部的创 意资源和思想的碰撞才能得到更好的创意。

86


PDC:请问方太跟瑞德设计的合作情况怎么样? 方太:方太公司创立之初,第一代产品就是跟瑞德合作 的。那时候瑞德和我们都是刚起家,鉴于我们总经理当 时对未来工业设计的前景预测,当时选择了跟瑞德设计 公司合作,推出的第一款产品比较成功,也奠定了我们 两家公司长期合作的基础。 PDC:在依靠自身研发团队与跟第三方设计公司合作 这两者之间,方太有哪些不同的侧重点呢? 方太:我们自身的研发团队包括国内的和海外的,从人 数上来说有500多人,主要是技术和功能的研发;至于 外观,我们主要是委托第三方设计公司,根据我们输出 的产品概念进行设计,当然这还要跟我们产品的结构、 功能相结合。同时我们自己也会根据设计公司给出的外 观进行结构和功能上的细化。从研发的过程来说,首先 是概念阶段,设计公司把我们输出的概念和应用性图像 化、可视化;然后我们技术人员通过技术把应用性实现。 这是一个从文字到图像再到实物的过程,是概念实现的 一个过程。 PDC: How is your cooperation going with the company of R&D Design, which is also in our PDC Design Show this time? Fotile: When we founded Fotile company, our first generation of product was designed by R&D, which was also starting their company at that time. In consideration of the forecast of future industrial design in China, we decided to work with R&D design company to launch our first product. It was a successful beginning, which also laid the foundation of our long-term cooperation. PDC: What is your focus when cooperating with third-party design companies? Fotile: We mainly resort to third-party design companies for appearance design, and technologies and functions are settled by our own research and development teams of over 500 people, who are based both at home and abroad. The design of a product is a combination and elaboration of structure, functions and appearance, basing on the overall product concept that we present at the very beginning of the project. This is a process from concept to image, and then to the realization of actual product, and both our own teams and third-party design companies are performing respective but cooperative duties.

87


市场开拓 Market Development

PDC: Do you consider the Chinese cultural background when developing for the Chinese market? Or just the original design from Italy? Agape Design : From my experience during these days, most customers are looking for good designs with specific tastes. At the moment based on the feedbacks I had, there are some potential projects, most of which are looking for something Italian original. Nobody has asked us to modify or adapt something for a specific market yet. In some cases, customers would like to develop the specific project starting from zero because they know which kind of market they want to touch and go in to.

意大利Agape设计总经理 Alessandro Nunziante

PDC:针对中国市场开发的产品,是否要考虑中国 的文化背景?还是意大利设计的全盘引进? Agape设计:从我这些天的经历来看,大部分的客户是在 寻找有独特品味的优秀设计。基于我获得的反馈信息, 目前还没有客户要求我们去为某一特定的市场进行更改 或调整,一些有意向合作的项目也是在寻找意大利原创 的设计。在某些项目中,客户希望从零开始,他们知道 自己想接触并进入哪些市场。

PDC: What make your design distinguished from others in the Chinese market? Agape Design: Our designers are from Italy with specific cultures not only in design but also in the ways of life, food and history. The European culture is really rich in old day's minds, and we have to use it in the best way possible because probably it is one of the most important assets that we have now. We always try to do our best to select the best designers, to give designers our best to improve - the information, the knowledge, the capacity and the opportunity to go worldwide and pick up the details everywhere. From my experience of nearly 30 years since 1982, in my opinion, when we work hard, the final design is not always the best but one of the best. So at the end, our product has to be different from others. This is the key of success for everybody.

PDC:您觉得你们的设计在中国市场跟别人相比有 什么方面的优势呢? Agape设计:我们的设计师均来自意大利,意大利拥有特 定的文化背景,不单单是在设计上,还体现在生活方式、 饮食和历史上。欧洲丰富的文化源于古老的智慧,我们 必须更好的去运用它。依我看来,从1982年至今,近30 年的经验告诉我,当我们尽力投入时,最终的设计成果 虽然不总是最好的,但也是最好的设计之一。总的来说, 我们的产品一定要有别于其他产品,这对每个人来说都 是成功的关键。

PDC: What are the characteristics of Korean design? What advantages of Korean design should be emphasized in the Chinese market? KIDP: Korean design has made high-level achievements in a short time based on the government's education policies and the rich human resources of design. The levels of Korean design especially in IT, electronic products and automobiles can be said to have reached world-class standards. In the future Korea and China will establish a closer relationship of design in these areas, and contribute efforts to the common development of design industry in both countries.

PDC:总体上来说,韩国设计有什么特点呢?在进入中 国市场时需要突出哪些方面的优势? KIDP:韩国的设计是以中央政府大力推行的教育政策和 丰富的设计人力资源为基础的,在短时间内发展到了高 度的水平。尤其是IT、电子产品,以及汽车领域的设计 水平,可以说已经达到了世界级的水准。日后韩国的设 计将在这些领域和中国市场建立紧密的合作关系,同时 也为两国共同的设计产业发展而努力。 88

Agape Italia Srl设计作品

PDC:韩国设计公司是如何跟中国的生产企业进行合

PDC: How do Korean design companies cooperate with Chinese manufacturers? What do you think of this cooperation?

作的?您是怎么看的? KIDP: 一般来讲,设计开发是设计公司与制造公司在共

KIDP: Generally speaking, the cooperation between design companies and manufacturers is mostly based on piecework under joint efforts. This will not differ much with the cooperation between Korea and China, most of which are in IT equipments and electronic products. In order to achieve successful designs and developments, design companies need to have the profound understanding of the status of manufacturing companies and the time and collaborative system required to solve the problems. From my point of view, the form of cooperation based on long-term contracts(Patent Deed) would be the most reasonable solution which can not only improve the commercialization of the design and its success rate in the market, but also increase the revenues of both manufacturers and design companies.

同开发的基础上,按件数进行项目合作的情况居多。韩 国设计公司在中国的合作也不会有太大的不同,到现在 为止大多数是以IT器械或者电子产品为主的设计合作。 为了成功的设计开发,设计公司有必要深刻地把握了解 制造公司的现状和解决问题所需的时间以及协作体系。 从这点来看,我认为制造公司和设计公司间的长期合约 (专利契约)形式,是既可以提高设计开发产品的商品 化及其在市场上成功的可能性,又能使制造公司和设计 公司双方的收益同时增加的最合理的方案。 PDC:对于韩国与中国在设计领域的交流合作,您觉得 我们还可以做哪些方面的努力? KIDP:我认为这期间中韩两国在经济、贸易领域的交

PDC: What do you think we still need to do further regarding the cooperation in design between Korea and China?

流合作有了快速的发展,但在设计领域还停留在起步阶 段。为了双方交流合作的扩大,第一步应该放在中韩两 国对彼此的设计产业正确地理解并把握其特征方面上。 为此,KIDP China首先通过中韩设计论坛、中韩设计类 大学研讨会,以及K-design特别展等活动,促进两国的 设计界互相了解对方的设计产业,并正在推进能够加强 双方关系网络的事业。

KIDP: I think there have been rapid developments in economic and trading exchanges and cooperation between China and Korea in this period, however, we are still at the primary stage in the field of design. In order to expand exchanges and cooperation, the first step should focus on the understanding of each other's design industry and the characteristics. For this purpose, KIDP China has been promoting the two countries' mutual understanding of each other's design industry through activities such as the Korea Design Forum, university design seminars, and K-design special exhibitions and so on. Further more, it is also trying to promote business which can strengthen bilateral network relations. 89

PDC: What do you think of the PDC design show? Bole Design: The Canton Fair is known as one of the largest trade fairs in the world , which has the biggest exhibition scale and receives the biggest number of exhibitors and buyers. It is a great opportunity for design companies to show their design ability on this platform. PDC Design Forum is a very good activity which allows design companies to interact with the manufacturers on subjects of design concepts, design methods, design practice and design output, etc. This is very beneficial to both design companies and manufacturers.

PDC:对参加广交会PDC设计展示活动有何感想? 博乐设计:号称天下第一大的广交会,无论是参展商还 是采购商,数量上和规模上都是最大的。设计公司能在 这样一个平台上展示设计服务,是一个非常好的机会。 PDC设计论坛的形式也非常好,把对设计有真正需求的 企业组织起来,让我们设计公司能够比较有针对性地把 设计理念、设计输出、设计方法,以及根据企业所处的 规模如何导入设计等等问题与生产企业互动。PDC提供 这样一个平台,对设计方也好,对生产企业也好,都是 非常好的机会。

PDC: PDC is also trying to bring in more excellent design strength in order to promote design and innovation in China, and help more China's enterprises to grow sooner by sharing the experience of innovation. Gree: We are glad to see that PDC is leading enterprises on the way to focus on design and creativity. The creativity of any enterprise calls for a social environment of innovation, without which an enterprise cannot survive long no matter how well it has been performing now. As an enterprise, we are totally responsive to our country's policy of transformation from "Made in China" to "Created in China", and we think that the setting up of the CF Awards is quite a creative approach for Canton Fair. As a leader in China's air conditioning industry and one of the representatives of Chinese famous brands, Gree would like to shoulder the social responsibility by extending its experience to the society and leading the whole Chinese manufacturing industry to the top of the world. PDC is a good platform to generate creative ideas through communication and comparison, so we welcome it and would really like to participate in it. We really need to learn from each other and improve together, so that we can play our due roles to promote the image and competitiveness of our country in the world.

PDC:PDC的目的也是要通过引进国内外优秀的设计 力量,推动中国企业的设计创新,同时也让更多的 中小企业学习到优秀企业的创新经验。 格力:我们很乐意看到整个社会的创新,因为一家企业 的创新是需要环境的,一家企业做得再好,如果整个社 会环境创新氛围不强的话,企业也走不了多远。广交会 出口产品设计奖,我们觉得这就是一个非常好的创意。 国家现在也提出从“中国制造”到“中国创造”的转型, 企业是非常响应的。作为空调行业的领导者和中国知名 品牌的代表,格力有这方面的经验,也希望将这种经验 推广到社会,并能够带领整个中国的制造业一起向世界 的最高峰冲击,尽到应该尽的社会责任。PDC这种形式 我们非常欢迎,也非常乐于参与,只有大家在一起交流、 比较,才能碰撞出火花。然后也希望通过这个平台多向 大家学习,跟大家共同成长,促进中国制造转型为中国 创造,对整个国家的形象和竞争力起到我们应有的作用。

Hisense: Currently, most China's SMEs are beginning to take design seriously, however, most of them are still unaware of how design helps with their development. Industrial design is beyond the design of product itself, and it is about how to apply those new ideas to the right places of the production processes. There will be mistakes and obstacles before this is fully understood. Many manufacturers still haven't begun to realize it yet. However, some large enterprises including Hisense have already gone through this period of setback and have already gained their own experience and mastered the advanced methods. I think PDC is a really good platform for everyone to communicate and exchange different ideas together.

海信:目前大部分中小企业都开始重视设计,但是还只 停留在“重视”设计的阶段,至于“如何重视”,他们 了解得还不多。“如何重视”设计比“重视”更关键, 这个是值得讨论的。工业设计不在于设计本身,而是在 于把它放在哪个生产环节,把这个理顺了就能出成果。 有的企业连弯路还没开始走,有的已经走过了,包括海 信在内的大型企业,都走过弯路,在工业设计发展这一 块都有自己的经验,也创造了自己的特色和掌握了先进 的方法。我觉得大家在这样一个平台上一起交流,沟通 有无,这是非常好的。 90

直击PDC “设计提升贸易” A Summar y of PDC Design Activities in 113 t h Session of Canton Fair

th

The 113 session of Canton Fair had witnessed more active participation of exhibitors in PDC design activities to increase competitiveness. It was partly because the increasing number of designers and design organizations can provide more options for enterprises, and therefore the displaying areas had risen by 73% to 895.5 sqm than that of last session in October. There were in this session over 160 designers and brand management professionals from 45 domestic and foreign design companies and associations in 10 countries and regions including China mainland, Hong Kong, Taiwan, France, Italy, The Netherlands, Greece, Japan, Spain and Korea. It was also because of the design activities held by PDC that help enterprises to find solutions and satisfy their demands. There were 4 design theme forums and 16 matchmaking activities with enterprises organized by Jiangsu trade delegate, Hangzhou trade delegate, Ningbo trade delegate, Shenzhen trade delegate and Guangzhou trade delegate. Over 10,000 buyers and exhibitors attended these forums and activities. 95

Gree Electric Appliances, Inc. of Zhuhai Overseas Sales Co. Vice General Manager Eric Zhang: Currently Gree has been in the forefront of the air conditioning industry in terms of appearance design, product functionality design and the development of core technologies; and we are also expecting to bring in more creativity and third-party design strength. The creativity of any enterprise calls for a social environment of innovation, without which an enterprise cannot survive long no matter how well it has been performing now. We are glad to see that PDC is leading enterprises on the way to focus on design and creativity.

珠海格力电器股份有限公司 海外销售公司 副总经理 张征虎: 在外观设计、产品功能设计和核心技术的开发 方面,目前格力已经走在整个空调行业的最前沿。 如果能有更多的创新元素、更多的外部设计力量融 入,这是我们希望看到的。一家企业的创新是需要 环境的,一家企业做得再好,如果整个社会环境创 新氛围不强的话,企业也走不了多远。我们很乐意 看到PDC在引导广交会参展企业注重设计、创新中 所发挥的重要作用。

Industrial Design Center of Hisense Group Director Difei Wang

海信集团工业设计中心 主任 王涤非: 在过去,工业设计的影响力还不足够,也常常 受制于其他环节,比如说技术、成本、市场等方面 的意见,工作比较被动。现在,随着工业设计的创 新能力的提高,设计所体现的价值越来越大。工业 设计得到了高度重视,在研发管理流程上也得到了 革新和优化。工业设计的话语权越来越重,在创新 体系中的引领作用越来越明显了。因此,我期待并 相信PDC系列活动必将进一步提升企业对设计创新 重要性的认识,并发挥设计创新在企业发展中的重 要作用。

In the past, industrial design was passive and less persuasive as it was subjected to other factors, such as technology, cost and marketing. But now, the value made by industrial design is increasing and more attention has been drawn to it. Industrial design today has more say and a stronger leadership in the innovation system, and the R&D management process has also been innovated and optimized. I am looking forward and believing that the PDC events will raise enterprises' awareness of design and make the best use of design in their development. 100

设计师与企业间的交流,是一种跨行业的交流;中 国企业与国外设计师间的沟通,是跨国界的沟通。PDC 发现国内企业和国外设计师在沟通上存在巨大障碍, 这些障碍严重影响双方的合作效率和效果。根植于广交 会,PDC充分理解中国企业的设计需求,又知道如何让 设计师的理念成功植入到企业的产品中。因此,PDC专门 提供设计服务,协助企业与设计师进行畅顺沟通,从而 促使双方达成高效合作。

PDC finds that there are big communication barriers between the Chinese manufacturers and the foreign designers, which has immense negative impact on the cooperation efficiency and effects. Based on the Canton Fair, PDC can fully understand the design requirements of Chinese manufacturers and how to successfully implant the designers' concepts into the products. PDC Design Service can smoothen the communication between manufacturers and designers, and achieve more efficient cooperations.

Guangzhou

Shanghai

Guangzhou is a city with both well-developed industrial economy and rich resources of Lingnan culture, and a place where creativities are gathering and the design industry is booming. Organized by Guangzhou Industrial Design Association, a great number of excellent design companies in Guangzhou are about to participate in the 114th session of Canton Fair PDC Design Show. The design offered by these companies is covering fields of furniture, lighting, clothing and ceramics, etc. All efforts are to make voice for Guangzhou Design and comprehensively promote it into the world.

Like many other cities , Shanghai also has a long history, we emphasize the importance of the colonial times and the effort of the Shanghai government to preserve the identity of the city. This is important because it enables designers to have an international design perspective over all times, to put ideas in context and formulate their own innovative design vision. Shanghai design has changed rapidly since 2005, from a few foreign designers to now busloads of international design companies, start-ups, and designers. Also the local design scene grew substantially, with some early starters to be large size design service companies. The area around Shanghai is famous for manufacturing, and shanghai itself is a f avorite hub for brands to set-up their marketing office. The th participation of Shanghai design companies in the 114 session of Canton Fair PDC Design Show will effectively promote the growing and upgrading of Chinese manufacturers. 107

举出口精品 聚设计之光 ——2013广交会出口产品设计奖评选活动

响应国家战略,顺应业界潮流

标识设计单位:杭州飞鱼设计

据相关负责人介绍,广交会设立CF奖是响应国家发 展战略、迎合国际市场需求的必然选择。从国家经济发 展的宏观层面来看,广交会一直被誉为中国外贸发展的 风向标和晴雨表,广交会上任何一项新的举措,在外贸 行业都具有一定的引导和示范作用。创立CF奖的主要目 的就是通过树立典型来引导中国企业重视创新,重视产 品品质的提升,从而助力实施国家提出的创新驱动发展 战略。从展览市场需求的角度而言,设立产品设计奖项 评选是当前世界高端专业展会的通行做法。在中国制造 逐步向中国创造转变的大背景下,广交会推出CF奖,将 有助于优质的参展展品和展商脱颖而出,进一步提升优 秀企业参展的积极性和参展质量,同时也有助于专业采 购商迅速物色所需产品和合作伙伴,提升与会效率,拉 动广交会向更高层次蜕变。 有业内人士指出,作为目前世界范围内绝无仅有的 大型综合性展会,广交会本身就具有办展层次高、覆盖 行业范围广、行业外贸导向性强等特点。CF奖的出现将 是对上述特点的一次升华,对整个制造业发展能起到积 极的示范作用,可谓是“画龙点睛”之举。

对于那些在中国制造业中摸爬滚打多年的人们来说, 工业设计已经成为当前产业发展绕不开的重要命题。随 着中国制造业的不断成熟,昔日规模庞大的贴牌代工开 始逐渐淡出人们视野,而作为生产性服务业核心要素的 工业设计,则在此时慢慢登上属于它的舞台。国家在 “十二五”规划中提出要“把科技进步和创新作为加快 转变经济发展方式的重要支撑。”诺贝尔物理奖得主杨 振宁教授也曾说:“21世纪是工业设计的世纪,一个不 重视工业设计的国家将成为明日的落伍者。”这些都可 被视为工业设计正式亮相的开端。 为了发掘更多更佳的设计创新产品,有“中国第一 展”之称的广交会在今年创立了广交会出口产品设计奖 (简称CF奖)。这是其继创办广交会产品设计与贸易促 进中心后,又一次将目光投向“微笑曲线”上游。作为 一个进出口商品贸易平台,广交会的背景对这个奖项有 何影响?该奖项有何亮点和作用?它的出现对业界有何 影响和意义?目前进展如何?带着这些疑问,记者特意 走访了负责奖项运营的CF奖评选办公室。 115

敲定标识奖杯,立志“展翅飞翔” 为了寻找能形象传播CF奖创办宗旨的标识,CF奖评 选办公室从今年2月底开始向海内外公开征集标识和奖 杯设计方案,在接到75个应征方案后更就此征询了海内 外约20名设计专家及20多位展览业内人士的意见,最终 选定杭州飞鱼设计公司创作的“飞翔的翅膀”方案。CF 奖评选办公室负责人介绍,CF奖立足中国、面向世界, 并将逐步扩大影响力,目标是打造成为与IF、红点、 Gmark等大奖齐名的国际知名设计奖项,“飞翔的翅膀” 能很好地反映出CF奖的理念和愿景。 方案设计者黄强在接受记者采访时表示,创作标识 时,主要以CF两个英文字母为切入点,结合广交会的建 筑动势,将F变形为一只飞翔的翅膀。设计方案在构图 造型上呈现出放射性,寓意中国产品向全球辐射,工业 设计影响力也在不断扩大。设计方案还采用了简洁的符 号元素,力求贴合目前国际设计简约、明了的趋势,以 彰显奖项的国际性和时尚风格。

(以上为初评评委名单,排名不分先后)

To those who have experienced in China's manufacturing industry for many years, Industrial Design has become an unavoidable proposition for the industry development. With continuous growing of the industry, the former large-scale OEM model has faded out, and Industrial Design has gradually appeared on the scene as a core element of production-based services. China government has proposed in the 12th Five-Year Plan "to regard the scientific-technical progress and innovation as the important support to accelerate the transformation of economic development". Professor Yang Zhenning, Physics Nobel laureate, also said: "The 21st century is the era of industrial design, and a country that does not take it seriously today will become a laggard of tomorrow". All these can be considered as the prelude of formal debut of Industrial Design in China. In order to explore more and better products of innovative design, the Canton Fair Design Awards (CF Awards as brief) is launched this year, by the China's No.1 Fair.

Among the 75 proposals received, the design of Flying Wings by Hangzhou Feish Industrial Design Co., Ltd. was finally selected, after consulting opinions from about 20 design experts and more than 20 exhibition insiders at home and abroad. According to CF Awards Office, the Awards will be China-based and world-oriented, and will gradually expand its influence to be an internationally recognized award as iF, reddot and Gmark, and etc. The Flying Wings can fully reflect the idea and vision of CF Awards. Mr. Huang Qiang, designer of the logo, said in the interview with reporters that, the design was mainly started with two letters of CF, then making F to be looked like flying wings, connecting to the building shape of Canton Fair Complex. The radial layout of the logo implies the global reach of Chinese products, and the continuously expanding influence of industrial design. Concise symbolic elements are used to cater to the current international trend of simple and clear design, and to highlight the internationalism and style of this award.
