Yuanxi Creative Design’s projects are spread in more than 20 cities in China as well as cities in Japan, Canada and Korea.
“Sanya Haitang Bay, Tianjin Binhai Forest Manor, is one of our featured projects. The space was designed in a simple, clean and non-redundant manner, and without deliberately catching people’s eyes. I still design myself. In my point of view, design is an art that came into being from the time immemorial. To create a quiet and spiritual space is to provide contemporary people with a place where their souls can be placed,” said Duan Yuan, the founder and chief designer of Yuanxi Creative Design (Beijing) Co., Ltd.
Expo Park in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, is a magnificent building with a history of 100 years is the latest masterpiece by “Yuanxi Design” Studio and Mr. Liang Jianguo, who is a famous designer too.
“Facing Huangpu River, close to Mercedes-Benz Cultural Center, and only one river away from the Bund which is a true portrayal of “Ten Miles of Foreign Market”. From the appearance point of view, it preserves the original archway-style facade and gentle cross inclined beam of the building, and continues the unique flavor of the old steel plant in the 1930s to the present,” Duan informed the press.

From the appearance point of view, it preserves the original archway-style facade and gentle cross stairs of the building, and continues the unique flavor of the old steel plant in the 1930s to the present. The interior of the building is low-key and gives the calm feeling of oriental landscape.
Here, the harmony of life is mixed with the beauty of nature, which is the initial intention of Duan Yuan’s architectural design for many years. Strolling in the restaurant “Donglin Guanhai” and listening to the careful explanation of designer Duan Yuan, people from the press explored the model of “new and contemporary Chinese space.”

The red symbolizing enthusiasm and unruly and the gray symbolizing absolute beauty make the whole building reach a delicate balance,” said Duan Yuan.

Photo from Yuanxi Creative Design “The use of plant elements in the restaurant is also just right. From moss and small trees with colored leaves in the courtyard to green plant devices on the dining table in the box, the beauty of nature is skillfully integrated into the design of every detail. The vegetation is prosperous and declining, and the flowers are blooming and falling. Just the time of enjoying a meal, you have witnessed a change of seasons,” she went on to add.
The restaurant, which perfectly integrates culinary art and space art, also has multiple functions such as conference, wine tasting and tea art. At the “Donglin Guanhai private room” and “Taizhou Hall” on the fourth floor, the “curtains” on the roof can open and close automatically.
According to Duan, the recently launched “Yuanxi Design” Studio will bring customers more amazing works. She firmly believes that if space is designed with faith, any space will eventually be full of love and happiness. Duan, who entered the home improvement design industry in 2001, was inducted into the list of “Top Ten Designers in China” for ten consecutive years and became the first female designer to go abroad and go abroad and share her wisdom overseas.
In her opinion, a good design, the beauty presented by Qi and the quality expressed by rhyme are all behind the designer’s own understanding and grasp of lifestyle.

In 2004, she became the first batch of designers to go abroad in the domestic home improvement industry. In the 2000s, many people liked to call her “Goddess”, not only because her works were influential, but also because she always had unique insights and persistence in design.
Photo from Yuanxi Creative Design “Yuanxi Creative Design as a company never deliberately pursues personal style. Whether it is creating home space or designing public space, we always think from the perspective of our customers. If you give your heart to each other, so that everyone who enters the space can feel love and happiness, there will be no problem.”
According to Duan, the “Yuanxi Studio” will be fully committed to private house customization. Many of the projects of the studio are about designing and visualizing large spaces with thousands of square meters.
“The larger the space, the more difficult it is to achieve overall harmony. Materials, fabrics, furniture, security – all these should form a unity. This is because design itself is a hybrid system. But in addition to visual sense and experience, the most important thing in design is to let people living in space appreciate love and happiness. Space is not an end in itself, happiness is,” she added while speaking to the press here in Beijing.
Photo from Yuanxi Creative Design “In 2008, I came into contact with Buddhism, and had a different understanding of life. Now I feel that quietness is the right thing for the world. Everybody needs to return to a state of balance between yin and yang,” she went on to add.

The meeting opened her eyes and at her “Yuanxi Design” Studio, the initial intention of designing is to give love.
“The happiness of customers is our ultimate goal, and design is just a way to achieve it. No matter how the trend changes, our aim is to have good products and high-quality services. To achieve these two points, we will never be eliminated,” she quipped.
According to Duan, the recently opened design studio will focus on using the unique delicacy of women, perceiving life and nature, creating art in the clarity of meditation, and creating one resting place for the soul after another for the busy and tense modern people.
