Cultivating a culture of design
Breakthrough ideas emerge from understanding the needs of the people and communities we serve. Delivering design that is informed, purposeful, innovative and compelling means we encourage our people — the industry’s top talent — to explore new solutions to age-old problems. We reward collaboration and intellectual curiosity — striving to leverage design’s ability to elevate the everyday.

室内设计

对设计文化的培养，需要拓宽思维，不局限于仅仅理解所服务的客户和企业的需求。我们所提供的设计是针对性的，创新的，且令人信服的，这就意味着需要鼓励我们的设计师们——业内极富才华的人，探索新的方法来解决那些旧问题。对于协同合作和求知若渴，我们予以鼓励, 每一天都努力提升设计能力。

Harmonious proportion and scale are fundamental considerations in our work. Underlying a fluid imaginative conceptual approach to any project is the rational organization of building components based on geometric proportioning systems derived from the golden section employed by the Greeks and the Romans. An underlying building grid based on the scale of the human body and common building materials is then organized into larger building units that yield primary and secondary systems that regulate the design of structure and basic rhythms in elements such as facades and the massing of the building as a whole.

比例和尺度的协调是我们设计工作中最基本的考量。任何项目的概念方案都遵循希腊和罗马人发明的黄金比例原则，按几何比例，将建筑元素体量合理布局。将按人体尺度和常用建材而设定的建筑格局，整合到更大的单元区域中，产生首要和次要空间，从而决定了结构设计和基本规律的组合，例如外立面和建筑体量，使整体更协调统一。
