He claimed that design is not just about responding to what's fashionable at the moment, or what's the "in" color. For an interior designer who is also an architect, his commercial design work usually expresses his feeling toward the city, the context of the neighborhood and how he feels about the particular brand that he is collaborating with at the time.

Having studied his master's degree in architecture at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom, Fu has absorbed wisdom from mixed cultural backgrounds.

However, he never bothers to distinguish the origins of elements that he applies to his designs.

"I hate to generalize eastern culture as a whole, as well as the western culture. I draw inspiration from the life that I live," Fu said.

Nigro defined luxurious design as high quality personalized objects, made of superb materials, which exude elegance.

He pays a lot of attention to the functionality of the products he designs, and he wants to establish an intimate relationship between the object and its user.

He also showed his appreciation toward M&O. He said that being recognized as designer of the year in 2014 has brought him much more visibility and awareness, and the chance to collaborate with different brands including the likes of Japanese automotive company, Lexus.

He described the pavilion by saying that it exhibits everything that people who live in a house will ever need.
