VELA与MAU荣获2021年SIT家具设计奖 | 设计师特别专访，给你带来不一样的设计体验！

设计师文森佐·梵西居住和生活在意大利米兰，毕业于著名的米兰理工大学工业设计系。梵西与其同名工作室提供跨市场不拘一格的独家设计服务，超过十年的国际设计服务经验使得工作室服务范围从产品设计到空间设计，视觉技术创新到设计市场前沿研究。他坚信设计是在常规中迸发独特语言的实用服务，这种开放的态度、对历史遗产的独特感受、对材料、生产工艺和市场需求的深刻理解，都在其创作和工作方式上有明显体现。

因此，我们特邀请到获奖作品VELA和MAU的设计师文森佐·梵西进行获奖采访，设计师文森佐·梵西就自身设计创作理念以及获奖产品发表了意见。

Q1：一位优秀的设计师往往体现在他的设计理念上，如果用一个关键词来代表您的设计理念，您会如何提炼选择？为什么？

Vincenzo Vinci：I’m pure visionary of the art of innovation to the service of useful design. We are tireless creators, but those creations, whatever form they takes, must improve the lives of as many people as possible. I pursuit a design that sums up through aesthetic and technical invention in unconventional projects that reflect the idea of well-being of contemporary society.

The most important quality for me as designer is the ability to perceive the contemporary. Make truly contemporary design mean understand the whole context and what people need and what people like. Only with these assumptions it is possible to guess the future, starting from what makes up our contemporaneity.

Vincenzo Vinci：我是一名纯粹的艺术创作家，致力于为创作实用性设计。在设计方面，我们孜孜不倦，但这些创造，无论其创作形式如何，都必须尽可能地帮助人们改善生活体验。我所追求的设计，是能通过创新性的美学和技术发明，来反映当代社会的幸福感。

个人认为，作为一名设计师，最重要的品质是拥有感知当代事物的能力。真正的现代设计意味着了解当代环境下，人们需要什么，喜爱什么。唯有关注当下，我们才能畅想未来。

Q2：VELA和MAU在众多参赛产品中入选SIT设计奖，您认为VELA和MAU的获奖优势在哪里？

Vincenzo Vinci：The designer is both an antenna who perceives how the world is changing but is also a tireless worker. I believe that our products reflect these qualities and have been recognized with important awards because they express a synthesis between utility and aesthetics with a clear and innovative idea. My creative process moves in different directions: a new function, new materials, a product that has not yet been invented or the improvement of a function that already exists. There may be a thousand other combinations, but only through rigorous synthesis that which goes to the center of contemporary mutations is possible to achieve such results.

Vincenzo Vinci：设计师既是一个感知潮流趋势变化的指向标，也是勤勤恳恳的工作者。我相信，我们的产品获得了如此重要的奖项，是因为它们反应了潮流趋势变化中所匹配的特质，以及它们通过清晰与创新的设计理念将实用性与设计美学有机结合在一起。我的创作过程会朝着不同的方向发展：产品的新功能、新材料、全新的产品构想，以及对产品现有功能的改进。在创作过程中，也许还会有一千种不同的组合，但只有通过严密组合，才能适应当代趋势变化，才有可能达成多样结果。

Q3：VELA和MAU的设计灵感主要来源于哪里？

Vincenzo Vinci：I am enthusiast to envision new lifestyles and ways of working. These two chairs have their roots in the future trend of continuous learning and agile working. Training and updating will no longer be limited to school time, but will accompany us throughout our life. At the same time, today there is a need for practical and comfortable solutions that are equally versatile and flexible, all values that have been considered since the first sketch.

Vincenzo Vinci：我热衷于设想新的生活方式和工作方式。这两款椅子的设计灵感都源于对终生学习和敏捷办公的未来趋势分析。如今，现代化培训与自我增值将不再局限于课堂时间，而是会伴随我们的一生。与此同时，现代化培训也需要一个实用和舒适并存的解决方案，功能通用且灵活变换，这些关于产品的价值在第一个设计稿中就已经开始考虑了。

本次VELA、MAU荣获SIT家具设计奖的认可，除了产品设计优异，同样是对VELA、MAU、对设计师、对汇誉品牌在培训、办公、教育新领域所表达出来的创新含义的认可。我们想要表达的不只是销售产品，更是一种理念输出，我们也希望可以跟更多人一起思考和感受座椅的更多可能性，保持对未来办公培训生活的美好向往！
