As early as the forties and sixties, Gao Kening, He Dong and Tan Jin were called the four major families in Hong Kong, and they were also the all-powerful gambling kings in Macau. 1960 After Fu Laorong's death, his descendants moved their base areas to Hongkong and overseas, and family fortune estimated that it exceeded 10 billion yuan. Fu Houmin took a down-to-earth route. He obtained a master's degree in architecture from Cambridge University three years ago and obtained the qualification certificate of Royal British Architect. The interior decoration he designed for the restaurant in London Railway Station was well received by the industry and was selected as the most recommended British designer by elledecor. Fu Houmin has a low profile. Although she occasionally goes to parties with her sister Fu, she rarely deals with the media and has no female companions around her. She is a real darling.
Face to face with Shikumen? Young designer Fu Houmin
By chance, I went to the colorful butterfly pavilion in Xintiandi, just like the entrance of the Oriental Garden, the faint light in the room and the cocoon-like kitchen ... The overall feeling is that eating is like attending a performance. Because of my strong interest in designers. This is about simplicity, nostalgia and, of course, the designer himself.
I met Fu Houmin recently, but I didn't expect the young man to be so young. Fu Houmin was born in Hongkong. He went to study in Britain at the age of 12 and studied in the Department of Architecture of Cambridge University for seven years. A year ago, he obtained the qualification certificate of Royal British Architect. The interior decoration he designed for the restaurant in London Railway Station was well received by the industry and was selected as the most worthwhile British designer by elle decor. And this year he is only 27 years old.
The Caidie Pavilion in Shanghai New World is its first interior design work in Chinese mainland, and the insiders believe that the style of Caidie Pavilion reflects the British design style. Fu Houmin said that he wanted to integrate the unique cultural temperament of Xintiandi Shikumen into the design of Caidiexuan, so as to show that the appearance of anything new is more or less an extension of nostalgic cultural fashion. Therefore, in the overall design, Fu Houmin has completely maintained the original pattern of the top and windows of Shikumen. "The color of the entire Butterfly Pavilion is mainly black, like a black box, which makes it easier to highlight some things of Shikumen itself." Fu Houmin said that the lawn and fountain at the entrance reflect the simplicity of European gardens. Entering the room, the round ceiling lamp, the chair without edges and corners and its square table make people feel a bright line in the space under the dark yellow tone. "Simplicity is what I like, but it is not a simple blank, but shaping a space through proportion and light."
The most amazing thing is that he actually turned the partition wall between the dining room and the kitchen into a "cocoon" shape, which increased the sense of change and richness brought by the indoor wall. "Before the cocoon turned into a butterfly, many changes took place, just like what food experienced in the kitchen."
Fu Houmin said that behind the simplicity is his nostalgia for Shanghai Shikumen culture. I went to Shanghai once in 1990s, and came back after 10, and suddenly I miss the Shikumen in old Shanghai 10 years ago. It seems that 12 years old just went to a small town in England to study, and the ancient Gothic architecture there left such a deep impression on me that every time I walked in, it seemed like going back in time. So that in the later development, Fu Houmin often regarded them as the beginning of inspiration. This time, in the face of colorful butterfly porch and Shikumen, he did the same.
