we can see it clearly, the design there is strongly influenced by "west" styles. they catch the trend very fast and developed interesting shapes. i would say, their style is quite colorful. BUT what a pitty is, i don't really see what is the spirit of chinese culture. i think, it is kind of a common problem in south east asia. (china, taiwan, hongkong, singapore...and so on).

at this point, i have to say, the japanese, thai design have really done good job. they keep the root-part of their culture and apply it to modern design.
