气氛

    小时候在北方读书，每周轮到吃面条的那一天学校食堂就弥漫着一股特殊的味道，对于一个南方小孩儿来说这个味道是陌生的，甚至可憎的。直到慢慢长大才知道那是麻油在面汤里煮开的味道。现在偶尔烧面条也会学着往面汤里滴两滴麻油。并不是喜欢上了这个气味，而是欣赏它模模糊糊的唤起的童年时的一种气氛。

    这是一碗面创造的气氛，这两滴麻油功不可没。而建筑的气氛呢? 场地、业主、建筑师有了，气氛就有了。建筑师通过解读场地信息和业主诉求开始构思创作。我一直认为创作源于思考，而思考自由却孤独，因而真正的创作必将是对自我的挖掘，也必将独特。这份极为主观的独特，便是气氛的萌芽，也是面汤里的两滴麻油。

    场地的信息不仅是自然地理和人文地理，更是包括相关的法律法规，设计规范等等；业主的诉求和价值观之后紧跟着投资预算和工程周期。建筑师的任务不只是内向的创作，也是发现和解决各方矛盾，为项目更好的呈现尽最大努力。这个能力源于积累，立足于责任心。

    这是社会对建筑设计从业者的基本要求，而那两滴麻油是我们的自我追求。建筑设计师的职业是终身的，不急于一时，但是每时每刻都不能忘记对自我的要求。

    这便是我创办这个事务所的初衷。

Atmosphere

I spend my primary school time in the north. Every Wednesday, when our school canteen offer noodle soup for lunch, a special smell came to me, which for a kid from south, was unfamiliar，even disgusting. Time past by and I got to know the smell was from sesame oil boiled in the soup.For now, when I cook noodle soup,I'll occasionally add two drops of sesame oil. It's not because I love the smell, but enjoy the blurred atmosphere of some time in my childhood it aroused.
 
Thanks to the two drops of sesame oil, a bowl of noodle soup recalls impressive atmosphere. What about the atmosphere an incoming architecture could give? Site, client, architect are key elements. Architects start to create after interpreting site information and client's request. I always believe creation originates from thinking, and thinking is an inward and lonely process. To truly create is to unearth a true self, which must be individual. This individuality is the seed of atmosphere, and the two drops of sesame oil to the noodle soup.

Site information not only includes physical geography and human geography, but also laws and rules concerning construction; client's request and value are followed by budget and schedule. Architect's mission also includes predicting and dealing with problems and contradictions beside innovation. This ability gains from practice, based on responsibility.

The ability above is the request of society to architecture designers, while the two drops of sesame oil is our self-request.Architecture design is a lifelong occupation, won't be achieved in one move, but for every single movement, we shouldn't forget our self-request.

It is the initial intent of our office.
