Mr. Cui Shu: âWe have to learn from the leading design and strive to be the leading design, Go China Design! â
Mr. Dai Kun: âEvery day just do drawing, good or bad is someone elseâs business. â
Ms. Lai Yanan: âIâd like to use a quote from a magazine to illustrate my point: I hope I never grow up, but I hope I never stop growing and pursuing excellence. â
Mr. Wang Kaifang: âWorld leading design should lead to a new world of common good, co-creation and co-design. â
Mr. Wu Bin: âGood design is on the way. Chinese design is on the way, and on the way to Guangzhou. â
Mr. Yuan Xin: âDesign is a kind of aesthetics in the current consumer society, and aesthetics represents taste. Itâs time for us to lead consumption with taste, which is the most important thing that design should think about at the moment.

Mr. Xie Ke: âSincerely do the design., Be the same outside and inside. Keep thinking. â
Mr. Zhou You: âI hope to do my small part to bring Chinese design to the world. â

#03 IDD International Design Dialogue â Master Dialogue
The first ăIDD International Design Dialogue â Master Dialogueă was held on December 11 at 10am in the RARA Hall on the 2nd floor of the Guangzhou Poly World Trade Center Expo+.
The interview invited two design masters, Mr. Carlos Gomez, AIA International Director at Large and CRG Architects, Founder & Principal, and Mr. Rui Leao, internationally renowned architect and president of CIALP (the International Council of Portuguese Speaking Architects ), to deliver their thoughts from international design masters. The event was also attended by six other design representatives: Peng Yu, Liang Dong, Wen Gang, Lin Guandi, Lin Yang and Chen Lei. They represented Chinese designers in dialogue with international design masters, elaborating leading views with contemporary Chinese design characteristics and influencing the world with Chinese leadership.
The two master and the dialogue figures discussed current hot topics such as âthe development of Chinaâs current architectural industryâ, âthe exchange and integration of Chinese design and world designâ, and âthe long-term coexistence of man-made environment and natureâ. When discussing the topic of âcommunication and integration between Chinese design and global designâ, Mr. Carlos Gomez said, âBoth Chinese and Western countries should work together to promote the communication and integration between Chinese design and global design. From the Chinese perspective, China should export its traditional ideas, culture and language to the world; from the Western perspective, the West should accept the ideas and culture of different countries into the Western system.â Mr. Rui Leao said, âNowadays it is a good time to exchange between China and the West, and many colleagues are interested in Chinese architecture and design. I suggest that China can establish more diverse communication with the world in culture, design and other fields.â
At the end of the interview, two of the worldâs leading design masters, Mr. Carlos Gomez and Mr. Rui Leaoďź together with Mr. Pan, Director of operations of RARA, presented the 2022 IDD Annual Dialogue Figures Certificate to the participants of the interview, in recognition of their leading design perspectives in China and showing the world the new strength of Chinaâs leading design.
