摘　　要：Dong Wei, a professor at the Design Studies Department of University of Wisconsin-Madison, splits his timeevenly between the United States and China. He spends his time in the United States lec- turing students in design visualization and Asian design, and during his stay in China he travels around the country to study the nearly vanished buildings of minority ethnic groups and traditional courtyard and cave houses. ＂＇As one of the overseas returnees working in China, I enjoy my lifestyle as a ＇seagull,＇＂ Dong told the People＇s Daily. Dong, who left China for the United States to further his stud- ies in the 1980s, believes that constantly being exposed to diflizrent cultures is the best way to fuel his creativity.

This group of privileged returnees are mostly top scientists and engineers, senior managing staff in multinational corporations and banks and entrepreneurs who have developed their own patents or technology.Overseas returnees bounce between East and West Dong Wei, a professor at the Design Studies Department of University of Wisconsin-Madison,
