北欧设计界的美丽精灵Nina Jobs
时间: 9月26日 18:00—20:30
费用: 免费
主持人:Nina Jobs

著名瑞典设计师Nina Jobs。她的理念是：”形式、功能与材料必须有机结合成为一个整体。”
她认为，客观的物体应该是敏感的、充满情趣的，并能够为我们的日常生活增添愉悦感和灵活性。她同时为多家公司工作，诸如纽约现代艺术博物馆（Museum of Modern Art New York）, 大卫设计事务所（David Design）以及瑞典宜家公司（Ikea of
Sweden AB）等。她还曾在瑞典外交部供职，专门负责协助在亚洲、意大利和瑞典本国举行的瑞典设计展览。

美工创意，插画家，造型师，创意人或是设计师？ Nina Jobs通通都是…甚至还不足以形容她。未来的日子中，在包包、地毯、餐具、编织物、室内设计以及各个定期的重要国际展览中看到Nina Jobs的签名跟倩影恐怕一点也不让人惊讶。虽然目前世界上的设计参与者多余过江之鲫、各种设计品质良侑不齐，Nina Jobs却能在这股潮流中很快站稳自己的脚步并一次次地向世人证明她的专业及天份。

原本打算成为一名兽医或是个复健治疗师的Nina现在是与她本人同名的设计工作室负责人－Nina Jobs Kreation工作室从事多种的设计创造。 Nina出身于Dalecarlie，一个典型的瑞典小乡村。家庭经营着丝网印刷以及纺织物的印花。她自己也曾坦白地说：「我也曾经尝试别落入了这个行业，但是我就是不知道该如何去抗拒这美丽的诱惑！」

在高中毕业后，Nina选择到法国继续她的学业。在索邦大学（La Sorbonne）修习法文后，她陆续于装置艺术学院（Ecole des arts decoratifs）及摩那哥的艺术学院（Ecole d’arts de Monaco）吸收更多更深入的专业知识。私底下，她也与Marie-Claire、Biba、Habitat、Renault等厂商签下她生平的前几纸作品合约。此外，她曾回到瑞典的RMI-Berghs学校（位于斯德哥尔摩的一家设计学院，现今的Beckmans School）进修绘图及插画。

仔细检识Nina的学习背景，一定会有人想知道她为什么最后仍从绘图悄悄游移到了纺织设计。 「因为我发现自己需要空间，而非绘图这样的二维世界。」

1997年，Nina于Alea jacta开始了她独立设计师的生涯。她的工作室坐落在斯德哥尔摩的瑟德岛上，充满了一般人对于设计工作室的感觉：简约、明亮、机能性并且有各式的色块散落着，但仍以白色为主体。 「如同所有的瑞典人，我对白色情有独钟，它是明亮与光源的具体呈现！」

Nina的手边总是有许多的计划在进行着。在斯德哥尔摩与Sara Szyber合作的展览Break甫结束，她立即就动身前往香港与曼谷投入由瑞典国贸局、瑞典工艺协会以及多个相关产业团体所赞助的博览会<<瑞典空间>>。她在曼谷站结束后将前往米兰做个短暂的休息。虽名之为休息，事实上是去参观当地的展览以吸收更新的资讯。活力十足的她在米兰充电过后还要飞到新加坡准备另一个挑战十足的计划。

在繁忙的展览中，Nina也参与在IKEA最新的商品计划：男性的室内家用品。产品囊括了地毯、桌巾、床单、抹布、床罩、窗帘及其他的纺织品。 「以前我曾经大量地绘图，画了许多草图，现在，它们全都存在我的脑中，我可以直接地创作，让铅笔、图纸或电脑随着我的想法而走…这是以往大量工作的成果，也是参与IKEA多项合作案之后的成果。在我呈现给IKEA的计划中附上了许多的说明、可能发展的趋势以及各种颜色的选择。这将协助我们更快地为这个<<男人的个人空间>>找出适合的调性与气氛！」而对于IKEA来说，这完完全全是个双赢的结果。

压力大是当然的结果。 Nina的解决之道也与大家一样：休假！她会事先在各个预定的大工作档期中安排假期来放松自己。 「说起来非常的矛盾，但是当一个人工作量越大，他越该找个时段远离工作，以免被那可怕的压力给吞噬了。我们还是该注意别过劳死啦！」对于中期甚至长期的工作计划，Nina不讳言，她连考虑都不考虑。

Nina自己认为在这个圈中，女性取向的设计是有其存在的价值；而她的灵感则是来自全世界各个角落的风土民情并将之应用到衣服、化妆以及各种周边商品，但是她强调最重要的还是设计时所抱持的态度。在创造过程中，Nina时时刻刻提醒着自己别忽略了使用者的观点，虽然在面对设计理念时两者并不容易互相调和。 「我从来不曾喜欢过矫揉造作、过分装饰的复杂东西。我希望所有的东西是简单、实用、触感好并且适合日常生活的使用。这些物件该要拥有一种精神，而相信我的作品正可反映出某些瑞典的精神。我使用的那些鲜活颜色看似与瑞典的精神相违背，但是它们仍旧可以带给人简约的禅意。」Nina边笑边解释着她其实一点也不物质主义。

Nina自己在工作之余有其独特的养身方法：以稍具长度的散步及素食来为自己的身体充电、还有瑜珈来调和一切。另外她还钟情于身心的宁静及花道。喜欢斯德哥尔摩哪些地方的设计呢？ Nina在回答这个问题时透露了她个性中不同于一般人的广泛喜好：第一名，位于Skansen的露天博物馆！这是一个开阔自然的且神奇的灵感泉源；之后是Haga公园、新兴的小酒馆、卖手工艺品及古董品的小摊子、Vasa博物馆…说了这么多，偏偏就不包括那些一般人趋之若鹜专贩售设计作品的精品店！

Nina最常挂在嘴边的一句话就是「将机能融入美丽！」

xindanwei chitchat edition 22: Collabor8 Project

Time: 17:30-19:30 Friday, September, 17th
Cost:free
Host: Ian McArthur

Globalized economic and urban territories linked by network technologies and reconfigured geopolitical relationships are creating a context where art and design educationalists are impelled to develop innovative pedagogies relevant to the needs of students, the world community, and as yet unforeseen industries.

Ian initiated The Collabor8 Project (C8) in 2003 as a platform challenging design students in Australia and China to collaborate online. C8 has since evolved from a visual communications focus to include multidisciplinary practices. Its goal is establishing ways of teaching that facilitate common understandings between students from east and west as a basis for co-creation.

In 2009 Ian worked with Professor Richard Goodwin to develop the PorosityC8 e-SCAPE Studio which challenged sixty art, design, and architecture students, practitioners and academics from The College of Fine Arts (COFA) and Donghua University (DHU) to interact online in a process culminating in an intensive two-week studio at DHU. In this chit chat session Ian talks about the context of the C8 and will discuss some of the student collaborations from this studio.

Ian has held a range of leadership roles in higher education in Australia and South East Asia including Program Director of Graphic Design, La Salle DHU International Design College, Shanghai, China. He currently coordinates COFA Online’s Undergraduate online program and lectures in the School of Design studies at The College of Fine Art (UNSW). He holds a Master of Design (Middlesex University, UK) and two education degrees (UTS, Sydney). Between 2003 – 2006 Ian was Head of Arts & Media at Kingscliff and Murwillumbar campuses of North Coast Institute of TAFE (NCI). Ian is currently a PhD Candidate in the School of Media Arts at COFA.
