model(for Donatella)

the elevator inside the building.

For Donatella, again, I used the classic form to create a sense of powerful and magnificent. The spiral stairs was used to structure most of the space. The shape of the spiral stair created the classical aesthetics. But the glazed the tower created a sense of modern, as the stairs connect the top of the building and the dinning place. The long distance and sinuation of the stairs is actually represent the long history of Versece, the power is indeed inside of them

the dining table

For The dining table, I choose to design it as simple as possible, because the lighting I used in the dinning place is colourful, and the texture is a bit complex, so it’s better to have a simple table in that environment. The chair I designed looks very simple too, I choose the ply wood as its material, and this material’s quality is quite good, which is solid but also gives a feeling of warmness. Again, it’s the combination of classic and modern. The theme—power is expressed though their organic form and smoothness, and though the aesthetics of functionalism.

This is the elevator for Steve Jobs
the shape of the elevator is quite unique, and the shell shaped cover and simplicity gives this elevator embodies the modern design. As Apple's product always has its unique image in consumers' head, this elevator mainly expressed the idea of technology and simplicity which relate with the key word---power.

This is my final elevator for Donatella, as I considered the famous brand---Versace’s style always comes up with words like--passion, freedom, elegant, and classical. Compare with the elevator for Steve, this elevator looks more classical, which refers to the Versace brand

Mash up

Life changed dramatically for a 49-year-old patient, it was on that day that the awful tasting medicine has expanded in the head. And it was on that day that Big Momma of the Billionaires’ Club turned the gun on himself. None of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from richest entrepreneur’s family in China. “No clear motive for the killing was ever established.” says the Daily Express.

On July 15th, 1997, Versace was ranked 36th on last year’s list, her beloved brother Gianni said that: “You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers.” Three of Asia’s most influential Chief Designers who continue to hold a 72% stake had some powerful champions in the spring of 1998 her first mainline collection.

This military family background brother has never looked back and realized that life had to go on. He had told her that sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. The secret is the ability to look ahead. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. Fast-forward to present-day, The Group has expanded under her influence, but life was still tough in the grinding years that followed the rise to power of operation. But she believes that with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. Just like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.
