Dong Gong introduced the recent works of Zhixiang Architecture, and focused on the design ideas and starting points of different projects, the technical problems encountered in the construction process, and how they were solved. From the community library of Suochengli to the seaside library, from the captain's house to the Haibing Building of Nankai University, from Shenzhen Pingshan Art Museum to Shanxi Changjiang Art Museum, from steel grass art installation to Yangshuo Sugar House Hotel, and then to Shenzhen Pingshan Art Museum... Many excellent design works show that when facing the complex and diverse design clues, Zhixiang Architecture pays attention to "site", "light" and "space", and in the construction of each project, from The field research and experiment of the initial material practice, the testing and correction of the structural nodes, and the whole process supervision and cooperation from the later stage to the site, these consistent persistence ensure the high-quality spatial presentation of each design work.

Through rich design manuscripts, detailed on-site photos, and movie-like videos, the lecture shows the rich space of the building, the experience on site, and the changes of the building from completion to use, bringing on-site designers a very real sensory experience .

After the lecture, Dong Gong had an in-depth discussion with the guests and the audience. The discussion mainly revolves around topics such as the direct working method, the impact of the progress of the times and the development of technology on architecture, the design trends of future buildings, and suggestions for the growth of young architects. Dong Gong emphasized the importance of the site environment for architecture, and believed that it is best to design and solve problems on site. No matter how virtual the future technical means, people still need the real space to bring spiritual enjoyment, so the architect's ability to shape the quality of space is the fundamental to respond to future challenges. When it comes to how to improve this ability, Dong Gong believes that the first is to visit a good building with a professional vision, and then to participate in the whole process from design to completion, and constantly adjust the sensitivity to spatial scale and materials, so that he can change himself. be more precise.

This in-depth study and exchange has inspired young architects in design methods and working methods, which is an important reference and experience for young architects in their future work practice.
