Ying is interested in the understanding relationship between historical buildings, human behaviour, and the environment. She believes the essence of interior design is a process that optimizes spatial forms to enhance interaction between the user and the environment. Ying believes the main purpose of architecture is to serve human beings and their well-being. It should not only include the technical and physical dimensions, but also the emotional and humane dimensions. As a designer, we can review the principle of the "spirit of place" and rethink our design direction.
