Appreciation towards Philip Fung for providing the following description:
不自然：一种自在的生活，一些坦然的设计。

在城市大建造运动中，我们不停的破坏自然，但同时间又在试图重造自然去补偿失去的体验。城市或建筑仿佛永远站在自然的对立面。

通过脑袋和手的设计本身就是不自然的过程, 设计师改变了自然物质的状态达到某种使用意图，但这种不自然的过程却可以带来更高的精神或物质价值。

城市或建筑本身就是自然和不自然的过渡体，但随着浮躁的社会价值，我们一直被符号式的语言去蒙蔽我们对自然的真正认识，或是自然本身就被扭曲了。

不自然是一次对自然的再思考和对材料的新运用手法， 14名设计师会对自然做出自己的理解和制造相关作品，题材不一定关注日常使用性，可以是对已有的现实物品作出回应，或是自发的新作品设计。

当下中国有不少类似的活动，我们的立场是以一种更低调，更朴实，更轻巧和具有研究精神的态度去回应身边的城市环境。我们更关注的是如何通过理解材料的技术去研究设计的新可能性。

只是，我们需要的就是一种自在的生活和一些坦然的设计。这就是自然给予我们的最大礼物。

Un natural
With the great leap forward movement, on one hand we are destroying the nature, but on the other hand we are reproducing nature as complement to our disappearing experience. City and Nature are always fighting against each other.

Design through the mind and hand is an unnatural process. Designers change the nature of the material to meet the design intentions; this unnatural process reveals the inner value of the material.

City is the transition entity between natural and unnatural environment. But with the current social value, we get used to abstract or fake symbols rather than authentic nature, or nature itself being distorted.

Unnatural is a re-thinking process towards nature and the re-interpretation of material processing. 14 designers shall design according to their understandings towards nature. The products not necessarily respond to daily life, it could be visionary or experimental interventions.

Being simple, decent and experimental are our attitudes in this project; we are looking forward to new design possibilities by employing new technologies.

We believe: A simple life is the ultimate gift by our NATURE.

Brave Atlas(The world is a project in evolution) / Thomas Tsang 域（世界是一个在演变的项目）/曾庆豪

Collection of 80 nations displayed as densely packed islands, revealed one of the most powerful nations in the past and in the future, depended colonial colonies, both taking account its natural and unnatural resources that it created and accumulated by the 21st century.

摆放80个如小岛的国家，当中历史上强大的国家和他们殖民过的地方靠近在一起，从自然地理和不自然的领土关系可以看到地球过去到现在21世纪的变化。

Leafpond / Philip Fung

四叶池 / 冯国安

四叶池在描述一种很平静的心灵状态。
作品设计是八片大小不一的大理石叶片，外形象两组四叶草，每块叶片承载不同尺度的水池，它们可以是鱼池也可以是花塘，随着主人的心情来替换。这一花一草一水一景，传递一种安宁无争的心情。

The Leafpond is symbolic of life attitude.
It is refreshing and inspiring when flowers are blooming or fish are wondering, therefore my design is simply several pieces of water pond, the overall shape is combination of leafs and each leaf is holding different size of pond. We may change the color and texture of the pond from time to time. People may fall into peacefulness by flowers, water, plants and wishes.

Light Pavilion / Young Zhang
灯亭 / 张之杨

This work is intended to explore the possibility of artificial stone, try the best efforts to conform to the material, and show the natural beauty of it.What’s more, we do not limit the function of the installation, and it can be regarded as sculpture, chair, light, and so on.

此作品意在探求人造石的材料可能性，尽最大努力顺应材料特性，展示材料本身的自然美。我们并没有限制装置的功能，可以将其作为雕塑，椅子，灯，亦或是其他。

Ming Furniture / Wang Weijen

明式家具 / 王维仁

不自然的家居是一个不自然组构的洞天,以不自然的家俱实体构建叠加,形塑成不自然洞天的挖凿空间,展现光影深远的虚体空间。由类型学开展出来的家俱形态:桌-椅-丌-凳-榻-台-屛,都是不自然石材与的家居文化以及人体肌肤的互动, 而它们组合成的两米立方的空间,也正容纳了高密度城市极小尺度的,吃喝睡卧的基本家居生活空间: 一个不自然的城市洞天。

The unnatural home is a set of unnatural structured grottoes (洞天), made of unnatural furniture, which is built upon on another, indicating an unreal space with light and shadow, depth and distance. The unnatural furniture was evolved based on typology – desk, chair, table, stool, couch, platform and panel. In the home culture of unnatural stones, stone furniture interacts intimately with human bodies. Yet the furniture also built up a 2*2*2 cube, where the minimum living space could be fitted. Eating, drinking, sleeping and lying are arranged in the unit living space, and ultimately an unnatural city grotto is created.

Guo Chuan Feng / Pebble Carpet
一方滩（或一方石）/ 冯果川

This is a design in between natural and un natural challenging our perception: a unify shape and different shapes of pebbles, the sharp edge and irregular shape of the pebbles, the hard nature of pebbles and soft feeling of the carpet. Using unnatural processing to make the natural object become ‘natural’ but yet also ‘unnatural’. With the pebble carpet, we will enjoy the nature within an unnatural interior environment.

这是一个居于自然/不自然之间晦暗不明处的设计。挑逗着一系列的辩证关系：规整的整体外型与形状各异的卵石；切割抛光的卵石断面与浑圆粗糙的卵石表面；硬边和石头材质带来的坚硬、稳定的视觉感受和坐上去后柔软、晃动的身体感受；用“不自然”的技术加工“自然”材料以获得一种貌似“自然”又有些“不自然”的物品；在“不自然”的室内空间中使用“一方滩”以获得 “自然”的野趣等等。

Thin Shan Shui / Jianxiang He
薄山水 /何健翔

Thin Shan Shui is an experiment on the possibility of the thinness of the two sorts of “stone” – natural and artificial, exploring their condition of existence between “form” and “formless” and thus expressing the materials’ poetry. The installation attempts to reconsider the material relationship of “lightness” and “heaviness”, as well as “softness” and “hardness”.

The artificial “stone”, a thin layer of translucent resin shaped to a wavy form, will float (hung by transparent wires) in the air, with spotlight on top to strengthen the variation of the thickness.

The natural stone artifact rises from the ground. It grows in the air with a controlled thickness to a shaped topographic segment of a hill form.

“薄山水”寻求两种“石”材料在现代技术语境中“轻薄”的可能性，探索“形态”与“非形态”的模糊状态，以使材料呈现其本体“诗性”，试图消解“轻、重”、“软、硬”等恒定的物态对立。

人造石的“水”悬浮于空中（以多根极细的鱼丝悬挂），半透明树脂的极薄片层呈现水波状，正上方的人工光照使地面呈现粼粼波光。

天然石的“山”从地面腾空而起，以极薄的厚度向空中延展，呈现“山”的片段景象。
