低饱和不是没有颜色，是颜色在低声说话。当一朵花的饱和度降低20%，它就从‘看我‘变成了‘你来看‘。

Low saturation is not absence of color — it is color speaking softly. When a flower's saturation drops 20%, it shifts from 'look at me' to 'come and see.'

我几乎不用纯白。自然界没有纯白——只有带一点黄的白、带一点灰的白、带一点蓝的白。选对那个‘一点‘，比选对花材更重要。

I almost never use pure white. Nature has no pure white — only white with a hint of yellow, grey, or blue. Choosing the right 'hint' matters more than choosing the right flower.

一件作品中最多出现一个饱和色，而且面积不能超过5%。这是我的纪律。

A work may contain at most one saturated color, and it must not exceed 5% of the total area. This is my discipline.

重心偏移是最容易被忽略的设计工具。把重心从中心移开3厘米，整件作品就从‘摆设‘变成了‘作品‘。

Center-of-gravity shift is the most overlooked design tool. Move it 3cm off-center, and the piece transforms from 'decoration' to 'work.'

我判断一件作品好不好，先看它的负空间。如果把花材全部去掉，剩下的空隙本身是否有形状？如果有，这件作品就成立。

To judge a piece, I first look at its negative space. If you remove all the flowers, does the remaining void have its own shape? If yes, the piece stands.

垂直的枝条表达决心，水平的枝条表达从容，倾斜的枝条表达运动。选择角度就是选择态度。

Vertical branches express resolve, horizontal branches express composure, diagonal branches express movement. Choosing an angle is choosing an attitude.

引用一个文化概念不是为了显得有学问，是为了给观看者一个'入口'。好的锚点让人觉得'原来如此'，坏的锚点让人觉得'所以呢'。

Citing a cultural concept is not to appear learned, but to give the viewer an 'entry point.' A good anchor makes people think 'I see' — a bad one makes them think 'so what.'

侘寂不是一种风格，是一种时间观。接受材料会变化、会衰老、会消失——然后在这个过程中发现美，这才是侘寂。

Wabi-sabi is not a style — it is a view of time. Accepting that materials change, age, and disappear — then finding beauty in that process — that is wabi-sabi.

东方和西方的花艺最大的区别不是技法，是对'空'的态度。东方把空当成内容，西方把空当成需要被填满的地方。

The greatest difference between Eastern and Western floral art is not technique, but attitude toward 'emptiness.' The East treats void as content; the West treats it as space to be filled.
