你是谁／Who You Are
（你是一个艺术家............可怜虫）
你是一个艺术家。你可以疯癫张扬，或者内向沉默，只要你有一颗不安分的古怪的准备随时喷我们一脸奇思妙想的头脑，当然，喷完之后还得是你自己收拾，所以你最好练就一身好身手，能够将那些精彩的点子落地成实际的设计产物，工具都在这儿呢，你行你就上。你可以有你自己的奇妙小世界，装满你那颗聪明脑袋来不及消化的神奇果实，而我们，则利用我们对普罗大众的研究经验，来给你的世界装上一件转换器，让你自娱自乐的成果能够被更多的人观赏，认同，并喜欢。作为一个艺术家，你不安于现状，拥有强烈的好奇心，并且乐于探索未知的领域，你最好做好准备，我们将会带领你不断跳脱出自己的舒适区去见识一个个更大更美的世界，而不是成为囿于小圈子里互捧臭脚不思进取的可怜虫。
We hope you are an artist. You can be a crazy extrovert or a silent introvert, as long as you are able to dazzle us with your brilliant ideas. Upon dazzling us you’d have to see your creativity through though. So you’d already be highly skilled in your craft and have many tools at your disposal. You’d take pride in being highly motivated, self- sufficient and independent. You’d have accumulated in your mind many cool and wondrous ideas waiting to be expressed, and we have just the key to open that treasure chest. With our professional experience and insights into consumers, we will help you to translate those ideas into reality, for your personal musing to be appreciated by many. As an artist, you have boundless curiosity, always wanting to learn and explore the unfamiliar and strange. And you’d have to be brave too, for we will lead you to explore worlds you’ve never known, push you outside of your comfort zone to find qualities you never knew you had. Be warned or stay square!
但是， 你也是一个小小科学家。你不用懂得花儿为什么这样红，但你可能要知道花儿怎样红得好看。理性的思维能在你天马行空得披头散发的时候给你一把梳子整理思绪，也能在你自以为是的时候给你一把尺子让你知道其实大众并不喜欢，还能为你的劳动成果提供坚硬的支撑因此能更从容的面对他人的质疑。我们会一起经历和面对各式各样的项目和行业，你需要理性来了解、分析、调查每个项目的方方面面，这样才不至于迷失其中。
However, you are also an amateur scientist. You don't have to know programming to design interactivity features in HTML 5. Your rational mind will help you to organize and make sense of your wild unfettered ideas, play devil’s advocate if you become too self-absorbed. It is a mirror to know if others see them in the same light you do. Together, we will embark on projects spanning different industry and typology. You will need to use your left-brain to investigate, discern and analyse these disparate design needs. At the end of the day, this is what keep us from being lost in the ocean of infinite creative possibilities.
我们需要你是／We Need You To Be
（但是，我们也需要…………迷失其中）
你的美感，你对世界的欣赏，将会显而易见地从你的作品中流露出来。虽然或许品牌平面设计是你的杀手锏，但你一定明白电脑前的二维设计只是一个开始，不管网站设计、交互设计、视频甚至空间设计都可能是你能够跨出去地领域。如果你能够展现你在其他媒界的尝试，你将更容易在这里脱颖而出。
Your sense of aesthetics, your appreciation of the world, is readily apparent in your works. Even though branding and graphic design is your forte, you know that computer 2D design is just a start, it is a door into UI design, website design, film, even spatial design. If you can demonstrate your ventures into fields other than graphic, you will find it easier to stand out.
你明确的知道商业设计是要首先满足受众，再是客户，才能满足自己。不同受众需要我们用不同的视觉语言和他们沟通。我们的项目行业属性很宽，从奢侈品、IT、房地产、手机、餐饮甚至公益组织，每种行业类别都有自己的视觉语言以及基调差异。可是你不畏惧，因为你知道世界是多元的，你不会让你的年龄、性别、生活圈局限你对世界的了解，反而你经常带着好奇的眼光放眼世界，观察不同行业属性在视觉上的表现，细细地品味这一切。
You understand that commercial design is about satisfying the end user first and foremost, then the client and you the designer last. And different end users require us to communicate with them differently. From luxury products, IT, real estate, mobile phones, F&B, even NGO and charities, each industry has got its own tone & manner, visual metaphors, and we cover a great swathe of them. But you do not see this as a great challenge, because you know the world to be exciting eactly because it is diverse. You will not allow your age, gender or social circle to limit your understanding of the world. On the contrary you apply your natural curiosity to observe how different industries communicate visually, going out to experience what all these diversity has to offer.
而我们能给你的，是让你真正去创造，用自己的头脑去创造，创造出各式各样事物的机会。你将创造出的是一个故事，关于你的，关于我们的， 关于设计在这个时代的故事。你将被作为一个真正的设计师看待，而不是打下手的助手或是流水线的工人，我们会尊重你的创意，并带着我们的经验与你一起发展你的创意，最后得到一个令你我都满意并为之自豪的结果。我们不会在枯燥乏味的事情上浪费时间，和你一样。在这里，品牌表现和体验不仅存在于标识、名片、网站、包装设计里；你还将利用这个机会来深入了解各个沟通触碰点／touchpoint。在这里，企业推广是对话，不是单向沟通。
What we can offer you is a chance to create. You will be able to create across all genre and medium, creating ultimately a narrative about who you are, who we are, and what design stands for in this day and age. You will truly be seen as a designer, and not part of a production line. We will respect your creativity, but also with our experience help you see your creativity to fruition, the fruits of which is satisfying to you, us, clients and end users alike. Like you we will not waste time on pointless work. You are looking to work in a company that understand that brand expression and experiences transcend the logo, business card, web site, packaging design. You are also looking for the opportunity to craft visually the different ways brands connect with consumers. Ultimately corporate communication is a dialogue, not a one-way street.
你会和一个多元的国际化团队一起努力探索。所以，你需要能够用英语和中文有效沟通，这样我们才不会在工作中有沟通障碍。我们或许国籍不同、专业不同、教育环境不同，但我们拥有的是对设计同样灸热的激情和坚持。
You will be working with an international team who come from diverse backgrounds and fields. Even though we come from different places, different cultural backgrounds, educated in different professions, we share a single-minded passion about design. By the way, you will need to be effectively bilingual in English and Chinese. This will allow you to communicate freely in our company.
如何加入我们／How to Join us
我们会认真对待每一位应聘者，希望你一样认真对待我们。先上我们的官网，了解我们的设计项目，行业属性，设计风格。如果你想毛遂自荐，请把你的个人简历＋作品发过来。我们需要从这些资料看到的，不只是你是谁，你能做什么，更是你对设计的态度，你的灵魂。如果你不觉得麻烦，你可以附加一封信，用文字表述画面表达不出来的东西。
We treat each applicant seriously, conversely we hope you will do the same. Have a look at our website, understand what we do, the nature of our projects, and our design methods. If you feel we make a good fit, please send us your CV + Portfolio. We need to discern from these materials not just who you are, what you can do, but more importantly your attitude towards design, your soul. If you don’t find it too much of a trouble, you can attach a cover letter expressing in words what pictures cannot.
一般你已有2年以上的工作经验。 你精通Illustrator、Photoshop、InDesign等设计软件，你也应该在学其他软件，不管是视频，3D, UI 类的。之前工作经验反正看你的作品就知道，通常会是品牌、广告、展览展示类 。
In general you would have about 2 years of working experience. You’d be proficient in Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign etc, and also be dabbling in other software, whether 3D, video, flash, UI or web. We are not too bothered by your prior work experience, but typically you’d be from the field of branding, advertising or events.
