In the entranceway, the marble wall behind Guanyin statue is like a picture which shows the divine light from Buddha. Chanting the Heart Sutra in mind can ease anxieties and release worries. The installation art made of solid wood is extended from the ceiling to the floor. It looks like a string instrument that can produce pleasant music. Its graceful curves and its reflections in the mirror soften the entranceway. The oncoming metal grilles are combined with slate bars. Its interesting shape is like a Xylophone with the mellow sound quality and waiting for guests to play a wonderful song. The simple flowing lines present the design concept, which includes softness, curve, instrument, music, and picture, while displaying the extraordinary modern taste.
