The process of design work is to explore all kinds of possibilities, and to help us focus on the most meaningful things.

7 POINTS DESIGN was founded in 2010 in Shenzhen (which is the capital of design in China). It is an innovative design agency with the pursuit of creating diversified high-quality projects. 7 POINTS DESIGN focuses on providing comprehensive system services such as interior design, customized soft decoration design and landing management for residential real estate, corporate headquarters and high-end private clients.

4What does “design” mean to you?

For us, design is not a skill, but an insight to capture the essence of things. Design can better understand the world we live in through creation and communication.

5What’s your favorite kind of design and why?

We like most designs that are pleasant to the mood. Because a happy mood is an important manifestation of a good life.

6To you, what makes a “good” design?

For us, good design is inspiring and can promote people's self-knowledge, which can lead people to achieve a better lifestyle.

7Describe your design style and its main characteristics.

As far as we are concerned, we are not bound by styles. We will develop creations with multiple concepts, adhere to creative and forward-looking thinking, and gain insights into the individual needs of each project, hoping to guide users' behaviors. We also want to resonate with aesthetics to provide meaningful, applicable and socially responsible designs.

8Tell us about your design process.

In the design process, we are willing to design pleasant things in our works, to spread hope and convey the positive power of people.

9Do you think your country and its cultural heritage has an impact on your design process?

Naturally, it is true that China's culture is extensive and profound. In the current globalization, we also maintain interest and attention to different cultures and designs around the world.

10Congratulations! As the winner of the 2021 MUSE Design Awards, what does it mean to you and your company and team to receive this award distinction?

Thanks to the MUSE Design Award Organizing Committee for affirming us. This award has greatly inspired the innovative spirit that our team has always adhered to. We believe that innovation can awaken a numb mind, and persistence in innovation can keep us sensitive to the world.

12What was the biggest challenge with this project?

The challenge faced by each of our projects is almost the same, which is to surpass ourselves.

13How has winning an Award developed your practice/career?

The award is an affirmation of our design work, and it also gives us more opportunities to showcase our work. At the same time, more people with similar values can be connected with us.

1. We can contact different people, listen to the demands of different individuals, and communicate with them to let us realize the different definitions of a good life.

2. The client's praise for the results of our design work after each project is completed,

3. Every time we conceive a design, we can enter a state of deep thinking.

15What makes your country specifically, unique in the design industry?

The rapid development of China's economy and the rapid improvement of people's living standards have driven China's huge market demand.

16Where do you see the evolution of design industry going over the next 5-10 years?

I think China is in a stage of rapid development in the design industry.

17If you were a student entering this industry or an aspiring MUSE Design Awards submitter, what advice would you give them?

This industry has never been easy, if you choose it, then believe that you will stick to it.

A variety of cost-effective and high-quality cooperation resources.

Our clients. They will give us more design inspiration through their own stories and expectations of the space.

Our definition of success is to be able to complete the current things beyond expectations. So I think the key to success lies in a positive attitude towards everything.
