Mr. Guan Yiqun, Partner of GN Architects, has been selected as one of the 28 members for the special feature "Creative China" in Wallpaper* magazine

The September issue of Wallpaper* magazine, a renowned British design and lifestyle media, features a special presentation titled "CreativeChina: A Chinese Solution for the World". Mr. Guan Yiqun, Managing Partner of GN Architects, was selected and featured on the cover of the magazine.

In today's era of globalization washing away urban individuality, 28 creative workers respond to the challenges of the times with unique cultural consciousness. Their stories converge into a dynamic 'Chinese solution'. This issue of Wallpaper* Magazine delivers a contemporary creative answer to 'Why China?' It is happening, growing, and influencing the world.

This issue of Wallpaper* Magazine conducts a deep observation of China's contemporary creative ecology through four dimensions: exploring the contours of the times through "form", awakening the tension and power of the city through the practice of "action", defining the community of life and spirit in the construction of "shaping", and listening to the stability of the noisy era through the wisdom of "concealment".

The magazine cover is titled "A Group of Powerful Chinese Creators" and invites 28 creative workers from various fields including film and television, music, dance, literature, architecture, etc. to shoot. Mr. Guan Yiqun, the Managing Partner of GN Qicheng Design and Design, was selected as the architect representative for "proposing a Chinese solution for a retirement community that is rooted in China and has global significance" in this special issue.
