- Production Technology
- The project employs a combination of handcrafted elements and modern construction techniques. Materials include antique bronze finishes, landscape-textured stone, natural wood, Suzhou embroidery, lacquerware, and repatriated antiques. Construction involves high-precision custom fabrication, sustainable material sourcing, and integration of cultural craftsmanship into interior finishes.
- Design Challenge
- The key challenge was to de-commercialize a sales space and transform it into a lifestyle destination that evokes memory and belonging. Constraints included tight schedules, balancing privacy with openness, and sourcing historically resonant materials. The team overcame these by using spatial storytelling, modular programming, and cultural research to create depth and uniqueness.
- Research
- This project involved cultural research on Eastern architectural and aesthetic traditions. The objective was to create a space that balances classical serenity with contemporary needs. Research methods included spatial analysis, cultural artifact study, and on-site material testing. The insights led to the integration of intangible heritage and modern functions, enhancing both spatial identity and market differentiation.
- Inspiration
- Inspired by the refined wooden purlins of the Beijing Forbidden City and the stillness of Jinan Daming Lake, the project reinterprets Eastern architecture and landscape into contemporary language. The design explores themes of minimalism, natural beauty, and cultural continuity, aiming to convey a modern interpretation of oriental hidden luxury through spatial storytelling.
- Project Duration
- The project started in November 2023 in Jinan, China and finished in September 2024
- Operation Flow
- Visitors are immersed in curated lifestyle scenes that feel both private and expansive.

Each space is designed to evoke emotional warmth while remaining intuitive and fluid in spatial navigation.
