In the current competitive environment, design no longer serves scale competition, but serves innovation competition.

This paper introduces the guiding ideology of “Design for Country” in different stages in the ten-year practice process, explains the theoretical evolution reason of the project in the process of exploring the economic transformation and upgrading scheme in underdeveloped areas with cases study.
