石头是大自然赠送给人类的珍贵礼物。石头丰富的外表，常常让我们忽视了它是常用建筑材料当中最为环保和可持续性材料的代表。石头是天然的材料，在开采和加工的环节当中消耗的能源较少，不需要经过繁复的加工过程就能够使用，其坚硬的质地经得住岁月的侵蚀，长久耐用。在使用的过程当中，需要的维护也很少。毫不夸张地说，人类的文明史同时也是一部石头记。
对于室内设计师来说，石头是我们朝夕相处的伙伴。每个人都有着这样的那样的对石头的使用方式。每一年8个设计师聚集在一起，完成厦门石材展的石无限展览，大家要从材料、产品、空间各个方面去展现自己对石材运用的思考。
明年的参展设计师是戴昆、黄全、琚宾、梁建国、孟也、厐喜、孙建华、曾建龙。
2025年我们共同选择了一个载体：家。
期待与各位朋友们2025年3月16-19号厦门见。
戴昆：住宅是人类生活的容器，随着时代的发展，简单直白的功能主义的诉求，显然已经不能满足大家对住宅的期许。今天判断一个住宅的指标除了安全舒适地满足日常生活的需求，还包含着对多重矛盾性和复杂性的平衡，包括空间的秩序与灵活，仪式与松弛，公共与私密，社会与个人，艺术与日常等等。
当下的中国住宅市场呈现出了从未有过的丰富性与多样性需求，室内设计师也试图以各自不同的视角和关注点去处理和平衡这些复杂的因素：文化的传承，东西方的比较，地域的差异，生活方式的延展，艺术与生活的交汇，环保与可持续的以及设计的人文关怀等等。大家都试图在这个纷繁变化的时代当中厘清自己的思路，希望能够借由这一次展览传递自己内心的声音。
黄全：一直以来，我都希望在确定的设计关系中找寻一种不确定性，这些不确定性可能是空间形态带来的情绪变化，也可能是设计带来的行为方式的改变，当然也包括材质的特性带来的不稳定，这些不确定性给设计也带来了更多的可能和想象，而材料的创新，除了新材质的应用，还可以改变人们对于材料本身固有的记忆印象，从而带来全新的体验，石材正是有这样一种特质的材料。无论是大理石的华丽纹路、花岗岩的坚固颗粒感，还是板岩的质朴分层，都赋予了空间一种自然天成、无法复制的美感和记忆。对于石材的研究探索，设计是可以让石材在坚硬与柔和，冰冷与温润，华丽与内敛之间切换的，所以石材的创新永远都有无限的可能。
琚宾：心利万物，秉持善意是好设计的基础。
梁建国：室无石不雅，居无石不安。
石，它独特的肌理是时光流转的记忆，浑然天成、质朴自然、经典隽永。
在东方文化中，天地与我并生，万物与我为一，在设计师笔下，石以全新的设计形态注入空间设计，给予家最独特的记忆，探索更多空间设计的可能性。
孟也：对于我来说，每一个设计都是偶然中的必然，这是一个有趣的事。你会遇见不同的业主和不同的房子组合，即便人是相同的性别和年龄，房子是几乎相同的面积，但是得到的设计答案往往大相径庭。设计的探索感、惊喜感，来源于此。
石材，对于设计师来说，也有同样的感受，石材的天然感、随机性、甚至有些荒料切开后带来的探索感，都是一次次与相同又不同的经历对话。石材的包容度是独有的，它既可以表达奢华，也可以表达谦逊，它可以变化多端，也可以稳定如钢铁。虽然坚硬，但是也可以表达温柔。这些特质对设计的加持不言而喻。有时候，生活和设计都需要一些意想不到的惊喜。石材，在创作中陪伴我，实验、探索、前行。
厐喜：石一直是中国古代文人欣赏的重要对象。因为石之美与中国传统审美文化的精神相契合，“居无石不安，厅无石不华，斋无石不雅”。
石材源于自然，经过亿万年的沉淀，大地造化之物。对于很多现代远离土地、居于钢铁丛林的人来说，这是一种土地与自然的气息和情怀。石材是家居中的点缀之物，赋予空间无尽的灵感与质感。每一个形状、每一种肌理都源于自然的鬼斧神工。把它们放进家里，便似将山水搬了进来，使空间环境提升格调品位。
孙建华：回溯历史，无论东方还是西方，在构建一个传统的“家”过程中，取之于自然的石材是完全无法替代的重要角色。西方古建历史基本就是一部石头的建筑史。在中国，从房屋立基之础到地面、墙体门窗、庭院园林，哪一个可以脱离石材？今天，随着各种新兴材料的产生，我们也面临着对石材与人们生活关系的重新审视与创新思考。
传统意义上，石材作为坚不可摧结构体的角色逐渐被淡化——这一趋势无法改变。然而，石材因力学与构造产生的美学与象征却在漫长的建造历史中不断淬练、沉淀出一种无法超越的魅力。这种巨大的感染使我们在今日都市构建一个家的空间秩序与生活场景时，对石材的依恋依旧萦绕不去。
曾建龙：家是每个人心灵的港湾，是情感与记忆的寄托之所。在家这个独特空间里，要营造出舒适、温馨且符合个人风格的，并具有独特气质和场域的空间环境。家作为我们日常生活居住的场所，由于每个人性格和家庭组合结构不同，所以存在着无限可能的美学空间。
而石材作为一种古老而持久的材料，在塑造家的生活空间方面起着至关重要的作用。每个人对于石材的运用和理解，会因感性与理性的思考方式不同而有所选择差异。石材不只是一种建筑材料，更是能传递温暖和故事的元素。石材对于空间而言，让人感受到的不只是其坚硬质地，还有沉淀在岁月中的亲情与温暖。石材是大自然运动产生的天然资源，经过岁月沉淀和洗礼，留下了细微划痕。在感性的人眼中，这些痕迹是生活的印记。石材为家居空间增添了自然质感和独特魅力。对于石材的天然性和艺术性方面，我们可以通过设计重组，让石材在家中营造出与众不同的氛围。而对于我来说，石材的天然色彩和纹理变化，是我在空间和产品设计运用上能够无尽创作和探索的源泉。
【结语】
石无限产品设计展不仅是一次石材应用的革新展示，更是一场关于设计哲学、美学追求与可持续发展理念的深刻对话。在“家”这同一主题下的不同设计理念，各自独特而又相互交织，将形成精彩纷呈的思想碰撞，演绎出设计理念与创意火花的激烈交锋。
我们相信，石无限产品设计展将激发更多设计师与创作者的灵感，推动石材设计向更多元、环保、人性化的方向发展。让我们携手前行，在设计的征途中不断探索、不断超越，共同创造石材设计的无限可能。

Curatorial Designers and Their Interpretation on Home
DAI Kun：Home is where human live. As time evolves, simple functional requirements can no longer meet people's expectations of housing. Today, the indicators of judgment of a home, in addition to satisfying the needs of everyday life, also lies in a balance of multiple contradictions and complexity, including order and flexibility of space, rituals and relaxation, public and private, society and private life, art and routine life, etc.
Chinese housing market presents diversified needs that interior designers are also trying to deal with the factors, such as cultural inheritance, comparison between East and West, regional differences, extension of life style, relationship between art and life, environmental protection, sustainability and humanistic care of design, etc. Everyone is attempting to clarify their thoughts in this complicated and changing era, hoping to convey their inner voice through this exhibition.
HUANG Quan：I have been hoping to find something uncertainty in design, which could be mood changes caused by spatial shapes, behavioral changes caused by design, or the instability that the materials have. These uncertainties endow design with possibilities and imagination, while the innovation of materials changes the stereotypes, which brings an entirely new experience. Stone is exactly the material that we are looking for. Whether it is marble, granite or slate, stone makes the space a unparalleled one. Through design, stone will be presented diversified characteristics of hard and soft, cold and warm, gorgeous and restrained. The innovation of stone will always have unlimited possibilities.
JU Bin：Follow your heart, and good will is the basis of good design.
LIANG Jianguo：In Chinese ancient culture, stone is deemed as an elegant decoration for a house. The unique texture of stone is the memory of the flow of time, showing its natural, simple and natural attributes.With design, stone infuses space in a new design form, giving home the most unique memory and exploring more possibilities of space design.
MENG Ye：For me, every design is an accidental necessity, which is an interesting thing. We will meet different owners with various types of houses. The needs and requirements for house decoration of each owner varies. And that is what I found challenging and exciting about designing.
Likewise, the random veins of natural stone is full of surprises. Its rich look makes each slate of stone unique that it can be fit in luxurious style or minimalism space. All the characteristics are great supports for interior design. Surprises are always welcomed, and stone is a surprise during my design processes, driving me keep exploring, innovating and moving forward.
PANG Xi：Stone has always been appreciated by ancient Chinese literati because the beauty of stone is in line with the spirit of traditional Chinese aesthetic culture.
Stone comes from nature, but for those who live in cities, it is a connection between land and nature. Stone is an ornament in the home, giving the space boundless inspirations. Every shape and vein is the result of natural craftsmanship. With its decorations in the home, the ambience of the space is enhanced as to be immersed in the nature.
SUN Jianhua：Whether it's in Eastern or Western cultures, stone plays an irreplaceable role in building a home. The history of Western ancient architecture is basically the history of stone buildings. In China, stone is applied from the foundation of a building to the ground, walls, windows, and doors. Today, with the emergence of various new materials, we are also facing a re-evaluation and innovative thinking about the relationship between stone materials and people's lives.
Traditionally, the role of stone materials as an indestructible body is gradually being weakened - this trend cannot be changed. However, the aesthetics and symbolism of stone produced by mechanics and structure have been constantly refined and precipitated over a long period of construction history. This profound influence has made us unable to shake off our attachment to stone when we build a home space and living scene in today's urban environment.
ZENG Jianlong：Home is the harbor, a place to cherish emotions and memories. In the space of home, we want to create a comfortable, warm, and personalized space that resonates with the owner's personality. It has infinite possibilities in terms of aesthetics due to the differences in personality and family composition.
Stone, as an ancient and enduring material, plays a crucial role in shaping our living space. Each person's use and understanding of stone will differ due to their different ways of thinking. For space, stone is not only a hard building material, but also an expression of warmth. It adds a natural texture and unique charm to the home space. For the naturalness and artistry of stone, we can design and reshape it to create a unique atmosphere at home. For me, the natural colors and texture variations of stone are the endless source of inspiration for my creations and explorations in space and product design.
-End-
Stone Infinite Product Design Show is not only a revolutionary display of stone application, but also a profound presentation of design philosophy, aesthetic
pursuits, and sustainable development concepts. Under the theme of "home", different designers will form a dazzling collision of ideas, showcasing the
design concepts and creativity.
We believe that the Stone Infinite Product Design Show will inspire more designers and creators, driving stone design towards a more diverse, eco-friendly and human-oriented future. Let's work together to explore and surpass the boundaries of design, and create the infinite possibilities of stone design together.
