COVER STORY

A Graceful Mingling of

East and West A young woman’s quest to connect with her heritage and revive its lost arts 勇者不懼 訪「 神韻藝術團 」領舞演員陳美容 Chinese text by Rui Chen | English text by Tara dos Santos | Photography by Hugh Zhao

M

adeline Lobjois dances elegantly between two cultures. As one of the world’s best classical Chinese dancers, she connects with the long history and rich culture of the Chinese heritage on her mother’s side. But she was also born and raised in France, and her father is French. The influences of East and West mingle and complement each other—in her appearance, disposition, discipline, modesty, and many other characteristics that have led to her success. Her beauty and graceful temperament are immediately apparent. In appearance, she has inherited pleasing features, both Eastern and Western, from her parents. Through years of dance training, she has developed a perfect posture and bearing, bringing the refinement, balance, and poise of her stage performance into her daily life. As a Westerner, she’s direct and frank; as an Easterner, she’s modest and tenacious. She has learned much from both cultures, she says.

初見陳美容的人一定會禁不住讚歎她美麗的容貌和優雅 的氣質。身為中法混血兒的她,擁有一張兼顧東西方審 美 觀 的完美臉龐,還有著多年舞蹈生涯 練 就的完美身 姿。對於自己十幾年的舞齡,陳美容在感慨時光飛逝的 同時,也表達了自己對舞蹈藝術由衷地熱愛之情: 「 我真 的喜歡跳舞,我希望自己能一直從事這項事業。」 走過十年 陳美容生長在法國,父親是法國人,母親是中國人,中西 合璧的家庭環境,讓美容的生活交織在東、西兩種文化 之中。她能流利地講法語、漢語和英語三種語言,性格上 則有著西方人的率直果敢和東方人的謙虛堅韌。「 可能 是媽媽對我的影響更大一些吧!我還是感覺自己更像中 國人。媽媽比西方的父母要嚴厲,不會給我太多的稱讚, 這讓我從小更懂得謙虛,不會覺得自己有甚麼了不起。在 我來到紐約生活、學習之後,這種品格幫助我很多。」 美容說自己從小活潑好動,特別喜歡體育活動。「 我 從小膽子就很大。有次去公園玩,在一個很高的遊樂設 施上,有人問誰敢跳下去,別人都不敢,我毫不猶豫就跳 下去了。我還敢站在飛馳的自行車上。」

NIKI CHENG

The Design Entrepreneur on Growth and Change 華裔伉儷打造家居世界 English text by Jenny Zhi | Chinese text by Yi-Chun Lin

T

here’s no place like home—this is the core of Niki Cheng’s business strategy and philosophy. And as the owner of three Calligaris stores and one multiline M Collection store in New York City, as well as being the first to bring Camerich to the city, Niki makes sure it comes across in her showrooms. “A piece of furniture that you bring into your home will be there for years. That is a part of you,” says Niki. “So when I sell, I don’t want to sell a piece of furniture; I want to sell a home.” Niki has kept this concept in mind since opening her first furniture store with her husband, Shaokao Cheng, in 2003. A decade and a half later, the couple is well-known for successfully building their presence in the New York City furniture market “from nothing to something.”

在 紐約曼哈頓的家居零售行業,張迪惠(Niki Cheng) 和程紹杲(Shaokao Cheng)這對華人伉儷可謂「 大名 鼎鼎」。 15年前,他們慧眼獨具,將當時對紐約人來說 很陌生的丹麥家居品牌「 北歐櫥窗」 (BoConcept)引 入曼哈頓,進而將其打造 成為聞名紐 約的現代家居翹 楚。 2017年底,他們將航向一轉,重新啟航,不再眷戀 熟悉的品牌,另尋經營方向。 對 Niki 而言, 「 家 」是有別於任何地方的獨特存在, 正因如此,她的經營策略與理念始終環繞著「 提供美好家 居生活」而行。不論是惜日相伴十餘年的「 北歐櫥窗」, 或是眼下三家意大利家具第一品牌 Calligaris 的代理門 市與多元展場 M Collection,Niki 與最佳搭檔—夫婿紹 杲,堅持初衷,希望每位顧客從店裡離開時,帶走的不 是無機的配件,而是「 家 」的一部分,共同細水長流。 萬丈高樓平地起 Niki是土生土長的華裔馬來西亞人,年輕時為了求學與

未來發展,申請學生簽證來到民族大熔爐的美國。畢業 後,Niki先在家具店打拚,經過許多磨練,她意識到自己 在銷售上具有天分。因此,當Niki與先生察覺那時的消費 環境需要的是「 惠而不費」的家居精品時,他們試著接觸
