Rong Art Gallery

Song Han Art Gallery Interior Tuesday, 9 January 2024

Rong

Rong is an art gallery interior divided into a main building and an auxiliary building. The original architectural structure was respected, and damaged wooden columns, beams and brackets were repaired. The wood was cleaned and scraped by hand to keep the mottled texture of the logs. In the negotiation area, a screen of hand polished metal pieces forms mountain shapes. A glazed enamel screen in the courtyard revives a traditional craft. Layered lighting, flower arrangements and a tea tasting area create a calm atmosphere that unfolds as visitors walk through the space.

Michelle Zhou Store Interior Saturday, 6 January 2024

Sheneve

Sheneve is a bridal store interior of 400 square meters located in the old town of Wenzhou. The design was inspired by a slim lace wedding dress. Translucent gradient perforated aluminum panels form a light arc that appears to float on the concrete facade. Inside, soft lace curtains replace the original solid partition doors, so the areas remain separate while the space stays flexible. Light gray paint changes in texture with the daylight. An extendable curved golden tube display lets the dresses move freely instead of standing in fixed corners.

Manila

Manila is a spa interior located in Manila, the Philippines, with a total area of 8000 square meters. The design combines the classic architecture of the city with Chinese courtyard elements and joins traditional and modern techniques. Because the air humidity is high, composite wood plastic is used in place of solid wood. The entrance forms a trapezoidal space with modern pillars under extended wooden eaves. The reception area brings together marble, dark wood, cotton and linen textiles. Dark wood floors and furniture with sharp lines create a warm and comfortable setting.
