2027年3月16日—3月19日第二十七届厦门国际石材展「石无限」,以“时间的馈赠”为题,邀请八位著名设计师参与设计,让珠宝的特质融入家居的尺度,并进一步探究:如果家是一具身体,我们如何为生活佩戴珠宝?从一枚珠宝,到石材、器物、家居与空间,一场关于石头的设计实验就此展开。材料本身并不会说话。是时间,让它成为馈赠;是设计,使其成为生活。
石头,是时间留给世界最漫长的一封信。
数亿年的地质运动,让板块碰撞、层岩沉积、矿物结晶,在漫长得超越人类想象的时间里,孕育出千姿百态的石材。它们拥有不同的色彩、纹理、密度与光泽,也拥有各自不同的命运。
有的因为晶莹璀璨,成为珠宝,被佩戴于身体之上;有的因为坚固厚重,用于建筑,构筑起一座座城市;有的因为肌理丰富、色彩绚丽,成为室内空间、家具与生活器物的一部分,陪伴着人们的日常。它们本质上来自同一个自然体系,只是在时间的雕琢中,获得了不同的形态与价值。
《时间的馈赠》希望打破这些边界。我们尝试以珠宝的视角重新理解石材,让室内设计师与产品设计师共同创作,探索一种跨越尺度的设计语言:将珠宝的精致、细腻、情感与仪式感,转化为空间、家具以及家居用品的设计灵感。
当一块石头不再只是建筑材料,而被赋予珠宝般的珍视,它便不仅承载空间,也承载情感;不仅回应功能,也回应人们对于美、自然与时间的感知。
这不仅是一场关于石材的展览,更是一场关于时间、自然与设计的对话。让亿万年的地质馈赠,以另一种尺度与视角,重新进入当代生活。
The 9th Stone Infinite Product Design Show, held from March 16 to 19, 2027, takes “TREASURES OF TIME” as its theme and invites eight renowned designers to participate. It brings the qualities of jewelry into the home, and further explores: if a home is a human body, how do we wear jewelry for life? From a piece of jewelry, to stone, home-wares, home furnishings and space, a design experiment about stone unfolds. Materials themselves do not speak. It is time that makes them a treasure; it is design that makes them life.
Stone is the longest letter that time has left to the world.
Hundreds of millions of years of geological movement - plate collisions, sedimentary layering, mineral crystallization - have given birth to stone in all its myriad forms. They possess different colors, textures, densities, and each has its own distinct destiny.
Some, because they are luminous and brilliant, become jewelry and worn upon the body; some, because they are solid and substantial, are used in architecture to build cities; and others, because of their rich textures and vivid colors, become part of interior spaces, furniture, and everyday objects, accompanying people's daily lives. Carved by time, these stones take on different forms and values.
“TREASURES OF TIME” seeks to break down the boundaries. We attempt to reinterpret stone through the lens of jewelry, bringing together interior designers and product designers to explore a design language: transforming the refinement, delicacy, emotion and sense of ritual found in jewelry into design inspiration for spaces, furniture and home-wares.
When a stone is no longer merely a building material, but is cherished like jewelry, it carries not only space, but also emotion; it responds not only to function, but also to people's perception of beauty, nature and time.
This is more than an exhibition of stone, but a dialogue about time, nature and design. Let the geological treasures of billions of years re-enter contemporary life on a different scale and from a fresh perspective.
