left_blank on 6月 7th, 2007

第一条：
不可抄袭他人之创意，不论有何前提；
Not to copy other’s creative work, under no circumstances;

第二条：
不可过分依赖电脑技术，切记，你是一名设计师，不是一名电脑修图员；
Not to rely completely on computer technology, it is a tool only and cannot substitute your creativity. Remember, you are a designer, not a computer graphic editor;

第三条：
不可一直追随流行设计风格，现在流行的，必是马上过时的；
Be a creator and not a fashion-follower because a trendy style today would become an out-dated one tomorrow;

第四条：
各用10%的精力涉足十门设计学科，不如用100%的精力涉足于一门学科；
Trying ten design fields simultaneously but badly is worst than concentrating on one field and master it;

第五条：
不可将自己都认为有问题的作品向公众发表；
Be professional and not to release any art works that you don’t like;

第六条：
不可因低价商业项目，而放低对作品的要求；
Not to lower the quality in view of low business value of an art work;

第七条：
不可凭主观意识评价他人作品；不可人云亦云；
Not to criticize other’s artwork merely on the ground of one’s preferences nor just replicate comment from someone;

第八条：
不可闭门造车；了解一些历史、哲学和人文，将对你的作品大有好处；
Not to create artwork without any ground. Great works usually come from the understanding of the culture, history and philosophy;

第九条：
不论身份高低，须保持歉虚的态度；
Keep yourself modest to people, no matter you are just a novice or a master;

第十条：
永远坚信：设计可以拯救你的国家，可以改变世界。
Always believe that design can save your country and change the world.
