Project process
-
Project origin
The construction company of Taohuayuan was Gold Mantis Construction Decoration Company. The new molding looked like a flower modeling, the size and surface were difficult to make. The Gold Mantis Company asked many suppliers’ to make it. But no one could do it. They asked the designer T.K.Chu who could do it. He suggested the Goodware Company. Then, they contacted the China office of Goodware Company. Therefore, we had this chance to make the new molding.
-
Customer requirement
The new molding had to paint the bright white paint, the customer wanted the both sides of new molding had the light effect. It needed to make by one piece and no seams. This request created the smooth and silky new molding. It was tightly seam, smooth curvature, and clean surface. It showed the new Chinese style’s idea.
-
Difficulty
In general, the hard molding is made by GRC (plaster) ingredient. However, the plaster couldn’t create the elaboration what the designer T.K.Chu wanted. It was also difficult to make the smooth effect on the back side of the new molding. That was why many suppliers couldn’t do it. We worried about how to make it only by one piece. The oversize would fail. We usually make for 4 pieces and then assemble together.
-
Solution
Our design director “Han-Lung, Lin” made the detailed structure planning. Then, the factory followed the planning to produce the new molding by one piece and delivered to Suzhou. Through the design ability of Goodware Company to create a smooth and one piece’s flower ceiling dome. It could make a new record for new Chinese style.

Self-evaluation
This project cost a lot of times to research. We are delighted that finished this project.
Because good cooperated with Gold Mantis Company this time, we continued to cooperate with them in several cases. After that, there is a designer asking about producing the same ceiling dome without molding fee. We insist to protect the wisdom value. Unless the original designer agrees with it, otherwise, we won’t produce for another person. We insist the professional ethics.
