1. 在今年所有的参赛作品中，哪些突出特点最吸引您的关注（例如，材料创新、智能技术、设计理念、可持续实践）？
Among all the submissions this year, what standout features have caught your focus the most (e.g., material innovation, smart technology, design philosophy, sustainable practices)?
在大多数参赛作品中，我看到了对现有材料、产品和工艺的创新和改进的探索，重点关注减少原材料、能源和劳动力的使用，减少浪费并提高耐用性。另一方面，企业也在寻找通过将数字和材料技术融入产品开发来带来舒适感和奢华感的方法。
In most submissions I found a search for innovations and improvements of existing materials, products and processes focusing on lower use of raw materials, energy and labor. On causing less waste and more durability. On the other hand, companies are finding ways to bring comfort and luxury through adding digital and material technology in developments.
2. 从您的全球视角来看，您是否观察到特定区域（例如欧洲、北美、亚洲）出现了不同的创新重点或设计语言？像 interzum guangzhou 大奖这样的国际奖项，如何促进这些区域趋势之间有意义的对话，而不仅仅是推广单一的统一标准？
From your global perspective, did you observe distinct innovation priorities or design languages emerging from specific regions (e.g., Europe, North America, Asia)? How can a global award like interzum guangzhou Award foster meaningful dialogue between these regional trends rather than simply promoting a single, unified standard?
全球运营的行业展现出对全球市场供应的共同视野。但可能存在以偏概全的风险，我认为东盟公司更专注于将电子产品和智能技术融入新产品，而欧洲行业则更侧重于可持续性和精益求精。参赛作品中也有例外，所以我的观点是，像interzum guangzhou这样将全球行业聚集在一起，将根据企业特质和市场需求，融合不同的思维和设计方式。
Globally operating industries are showing a worldwide view on what is offered. With the risk of generalizing, I would say Asean companies are more focused on adding electronics and smart technology to new products where European industries focus more on sustainability and refining. Exceptions are found in the submissions, so my view is that bringing global industries together like at interzum guangzhou will merge ways of thinking and designing based on company qualities and market demands.
3. 在今年的评审过程中，您是否观察到更多跨行业融合的例子（例如，家具与技术、健康或办公生态系统相结合）？您如何看待这种融合趋势？
During this year's award evaluation, did you observe more examples of cross-industry integration (e.g., furniture combined with technology, wellness, or office ecosystems)? What is your view on this trend of convergence?
跨行业融合的例子比比皆是。例如在床垫面层解决方案中，通过添加材料和改进技术来提升睡眠质量。还有在沙发、座椅和书桌的机械系统中加入电子元件。这些都是设计和开发中利用现有可能性创造新选择的合乎逻辑的步骤。
Examples of cross-industry integration were well represented. In mattress ticking solutions where additional materials and techniques are improving the quality of sleep. Also, in adding electronics to mechanical systems for sofas, seats and desks. These are logical steps in design and development making use of available possibilities to create new options.
4. 我们看到人们越来越重视适应灵活生活、远程工作和心理健康的家具。从家具设计的角度来看，家具应如何通过使用新材料和组件，从根本上演变以满足这些不断变化的人类需求和社会结构？
We see a growing emphasis on furniture for flexible living, remote work, and mental well-being. From a furniture design perspective, how should furniture evolve to fundamentally address these shifting human needs and social structures through the use of new materials and components?
家具使用需求的转变正催生新的组件，我在可调节高度的书桌或餐桌的参赛作品中就看到了这一点。用于驱动四腿桌面的系统为普通餐桌用于办公提供了可能。下一步重要举措是使这些系统在材质上能够融入家居环境，例如用木材替代金属以增添温暖感。
Shifting needs in the use of furniture are leading to new components that I found in submissions for height adjustable desks or tables. Systems for motorizing four legs bring options to prepare common tables for office use. The next important step is to materialize these systems in a way they are accepted in living interiors. Using wood instead of metal to add warmth.
5. 作为评审团成员，您不仅仅是在评选优胜者，也是在向整个行业传递信号。除了表彰卓越之外，您希望该奖项的结果向全球的制造商、设计师和品牌传达一个什么样的具体、可操作的信号或行动呼吁？
As a jury member, you are not just selecting winners but also sending signals to the entire industry. Beyond recognizing excellence, what is one specific, actionable signal or call to action you hope the outcomes of this award will send to manufacturers, designers, and brands worldwide?
开发那些真正能提升生活质量和环境品质的产品和材料，我认为这是紧迫且重要的。我在许多参赛作品中看到了这一点，并希望这种专注于有意义创新的理念能够传遍整个行业！
Developing products and materials that are a real addition to the quality of life and our environment is what I find urgent and important. I have seen this in many admissions and would wish this focus of meaningful innovation will spread through the industry!
