Chapter 189: Daily Life After Returning Home (Subscription Requested)
In the blink of an eye, it was mid-June, and Bai Jingtong led the team to hand over the follow-up work to the designers in Australia after the construction drawings were completed. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
It was the second week after returning home, and in the afternoon, the weather was just right and the temperature was suitable.
In the garden and building where Bai Juetong's studio is located, the big guys are busy, and there are many young faces shuttling in it, either observing or existing as assistants...
Most of these young faces are students from Mizuki University, and they have been recruited as interns after layers of selection.
And this back mountain, this garden and this house have long become the places that students of Mizuki University and even the entire capital college students yearn for.
There are rumors among design and art students:
It's the birthplace of so many new ideas, and every theory that comes out of the air makes a splash.
It's a place to show your talents, and it won't hold you back, even if it may not seem realistic!
This is a gathering place for masters and future masters!
It's a dream utopia!
In the garden, the eyes of the passing interns couldn't help but drift to a corner, their eyes flashing with fanaticism and adoration.
I saw that where they looked intentionally or unintentionally, there was a bench made of pure handmade wood, the bench structure was pure and simple, but on top of it was Bai Juetong lying.
Wearing a white shirt and pale cyan casual trousers, he exuded a lazy temperament, and even in order to hide some dazzling sunlight, he did not forget to cover his face with a book that was not too big or too modest.
At this time, a handsome young man approached, the young man was meticulously dressed, his demeanor was elegant and calm, he walked to Bai Hengtong's side, his face showed some helplessness.
I saw the young man shouting one after another:
"White dove designer, white dove designer."
"Wake up, wake up..."
Bai Hengtong was awakened, his brows immediately furrowed, and his mouth muttered: "Yazhi, disturbing people's dreams is not a good habit. ”
"Designer Bai Jue, it's time for you to go to class."
The young man bowed slightly, and answered again.
The words fell, and there was a brief silence between the two.
But immediately after, Bai Juetong seemed to remember something, and sat up with a hula.
"It's broken! Broken! ”
"I'm going to be late, why didn't you call me earlier."
Jue Tong looked at his watch, put the book in the creaky nest, and patted his clothes again: "Let's go." ”
Although it was late in the mouth, it was not reflected in the action at all.
It may be that when rushing to design, there is often a race against time, and this falls back to the daily life, and the comfortable laziness is especially obvious.
She paced lightly, her eyes seemed to be open.
The young man behind him, Masayuki Kurokawa, the leader of the young generation of designers in the island country, was slightly behind and followed closely.
Masayuki Kurokawa once publicly announced that he would follow Bai Juetong, which caused quite a stir at the time.
Especially in the design circle of the island country, all designers are in an uproar!
In their eyes, Masayuki Kurokawa is the future leader of the design community in the island nation, but now he has volunteered to follow a young Chinese designer.
They can't accept such a thing anyway.
Many people protested, denounced, and even scolded, but even so, it still did not change Masayuki Kurokawa's decision.
Kurokawa Masayuki's eyes are very calm and calm, and the whole person has a calm and warm temperament, he looks at Bai Hengtong and does not regret or even rejoice.
In the past few months, his progress has been very great, and he has seen a kind of amazement from Bai Juetong.
He noticed that Bai Juetong was standing at a height that no one else had ever stood on, looking down on all beings.
Masayuki Kurokawa doesn't know why he feels this way, but he can be sure that it is an insurmountable distance between the two!
Soon, the two of them walked to the architecture department of Mizuki University and walked to the largest lecture hall in the department.
"Professor Bai, good afternoon."
"Assistant Teacher Kurokawa, good afternoon."
"Professor Bai..."
"Professor Bai..."
"Assistant Teacher Kurokawa..."
Many students trotted over when they saw the two from a distance, and shouted respectfully.
After greeting him, he didn't leave, and hugged Bai Hengtong and the two walked forward together.
The lecture halls in the department hall were full of students, many of whom even had to stand to listen to the lectures.
"Good afternoon, everyone, it's nice to see you all again."
Jutong stood in front of the podium, smiling, and her eyes scanning the students in the classroom.
Masayuki Kurokawa stood to the side, waiting for orders.
"I've noticed that people have been really fond of Muji's products lately."
Jue Tong said again.
I saw that in the classroom, the students were wearing MUJI shirts, MUJI water cups, and many other small items.
This is the result of the subsidiary business of Feng Jingmo and Bai Jingtong Studio within half a year.
Among them, MUJI is popular among young people at a rapid speed with a minimalist aesthetic.
Masayuki Kurokawa's attention is also focused on this design, which is mostly white, beige, blue or black.
He had seen it long ago, but he was still amazed.
He secretly said that if such a design is developed to an island country, it will definitely cause even more crazy pursuit.
"So, in today's lesson, we're going to talk about the aesthetics in this MUJI!"
As he spoke, Bai Hengtong wrote the words MUJI on the whiteboard behind him.
As soon as his words fell, all the students were concentrating and paying much attention.
The students liked the simple design and aesthetic of Muji, but they really didn't know why.
Next to it, Masayuki Kurokawa stood straight and listened carefully.
"Muji has removed the logo, omitted all unnecessary designs, removed all unnecessary processing and colors, and is even so simple that only the materials and functions remain."
Bai Jingtong propped his hands on the lectern and said in a deep voice: "I call this concept minimalism, and it is also a philosophy of life. ”
"Removing the superfluous and not needing the superfluous to complicate the design is the design philosophy that MUJI pursues."
"Less-is-more."
"There is no exaggeration and rendering of any art, the colors are mostly shown in their true colors, the form is concise, and the common forms of rules are basically adopted."
Outside the window, the afternoon sun is shining, and the white dove in the house looks calm and talks.
Through MUJI, he disseminates a wealth of design thinking and aesthetics to students.
This has a great impact on students who are new to the road of design, and they may even embark on the path of masters in the near future through the teaching of Bai Juetong.
Decades later, someone once counted and was shocked to find that the ten years of the designer of Bai Juetong in Mizuki University was the golden age of the blowout of the master of Mizuki University!
He took a sip of hot tea to moisten his throat, and then said: "This form that tends to be close to 'nothing' is actually a reflection of the 'emptiness' consciousness of Zen Buddhism. ”
"It is close to our hearts with its pure, simple, and restoring the essence of the product's design style, highlighting the quiet and elegant abyss taste, and letting us feel the simple and honest design spirit."
"The pursuit of a minimum of design elements, metaphor for extremely rich design connotations."
"I think it's fitting to use a passage from my ancestor."
"Clear water out of hibiscus, natural carving."
......
The lecture continued, and the students didn't know how much they had learned, but Masayuki Kurokawa's face was solemn.
He was shocked to find that this MUJI seemed to be engraved on his path.
"Alright, that's all for today's lesson."
When the bell rang outside the classroom, she put down the pen in her hand, looked at the students and said loudly.
After that, he clapped his hands and left in style.
"Professor Bai!"
Just as he was about to walk out of the classroom door, a voice suddenly came from behind him, and his footsteps immediately stopped.
Turning to look at the place where the voice came from, it was a young boy, and when the boy saw Bai Hengtong looking at him, his face suddenly turned red and became a little nervous.
The room full of students also looked at the boy with surprise on their faces.
"What's the matter?"
Bai Jingtong asked with a smile.
"Professor Bai, I... I would like to ask you, I wonder if you will attend the evening party of the China Architecture Art Forum tonight."
The boy took a deep breath, then gritted his teeth and said in unison.
After he finished speaking, his eyes looked at Bai Jingtong expectantly.
When the rest of the students in the classroom heard this, they also showed curiosity and speculation.
In recent months, the architecture, art and well-known experts and scholars have launched a series of rounds of lectures and lectures for up to two months.
Topics covered include:
"The Development Direction of Chinese Contemporary Architecture"
"Contemporary Architecture and Urban Memory"
"Globalization and Localization of Planning and Design"
"Conservation and Development of Ancient Historical and Cultural Cities"
And so on and so forth...
From these topics, it can be seen that this vigorous discussion is actually held by domestic architects and artists who are eager to make changes and want to explore and open up the future path of Chinese architectural art.
And tonight's party is a feast held for the end of this discussion, which is very valued in the industry, with high specifications, and the participants are old-timers in various fields.
The gains and losses will be summarized and the corresponding awards will be presented during the evening.
Prior to this, although she was the most well-known young designer in China, she had never held any forums and lectures, nor participated in such a discussion feast.
So, the students don't know if he's eligible to be invited.
Hearing this, Jue Tong raised his eyebrows, put his hands in his pockets carelessly, and said with a smile:
"It's a secret."
