Nowadays, the home furnishing industry is rapidly integrating with digitalization.

Industry-University Collaboration: Embracing a New Phase of Integration
Southwest Forestry University is a university jointly established by the National Forestry Bureau and the Yunnan Provincial Government. It was one of the first universities in China to be granted the authority to confer master’s degrees after the reform and opening up. Since its establishment, it has continuously nurtured a large number of outstanding talents for society.
Yang Silin, the director of the Academic Affairs Office at Southwest Forestry University, expressed that the collaboration between the university and Kuaijiale, a leading brand in home design, is aimed at creating targeted talent development programs based on the needs of the company, market, and industry. This collaboration aims to enhance students’ adaptability and serves as a complement and improvement to the university’s educational model. It is beneficial for cultivating professional characteristics and advantages, meeting students’ personalized needs, and achieving a win-win situation for the university, the company, and the graduates.
Yan Fengbo, the General Manager of the Campus Department of Kuaijiale, explained the original intention behind Kuaijiale Cloud Design Campus Program to the school’s faculty and students. “We’d like to showcase the cutting-edge industry landscape to teachers and students through in-depth cooperation between industry and university. And to drive the transformation and upgrading of the entire home furnishing industry through the cultivation and circulation of design talents.”
She believes that the overall growth of the domestic home furnishing industry slowed down in 2019, and traditional marketing methods proved to be ineffective. Design, as a front-end process that can bring about changes and trigger shifts in consumer mindset, has gained more importance. It is now being emphasized with higher dimensions and perspectives to enhance the overall efficiency of the industry. “University students, as the driving force behind the growth of the designer workforce, are a continuous source of creativity and transformative power for the home furnishing industry. Kuaijiale hopes to collaborate with universities and companies to cultivate designers with future-oriented thinking.”
With the continuous implementation of the Cloud Design Campus Program,” Kuaijiale is committed to fully integrating the needs of the home furnishing industry with talent nurturing in universities, providing talents for the digital transformation and development of home furnishing enterprises. Over the past year, whether it is the collaborative exploration of industry-education integration with universities and companies or the improvement of the industry’s ecological value, Kuaijiale Cloud Design Campus Program has achieved remarkable results.
