About The MeetNi Guesthouse
In terms of design elements, it is not intended to be complicated or minimalist. It takes Chinese simple color as the base, but uses textured paint to leave space blank, which forms the oriental artistic conception in line with modern aesthetics. Modern humanistic home furnishings and traditional decorations with historical stories seem to be ancient and modern dialogues flowing in space, with a leisurely ancient charm.

- Design Challenge
- The original building of this project is two buildings connected. After the merger, the middle aisle will be dark and dull, which will not feel good to hotel guests. After thinking about the transformation, we opened a five-story hollow light well to promote natural daylight to the aisles on each floor. This is also a highlight of this design.
- Research
- Use modern design methods to metaphor Chinese traditions, and use the oriental context to create courtyard culture. The traditional garden frame landscaping method continues the natural atmosphere. The wooden fence between the virtual and the real has a certain spatial delimitation function, but it also allows the breath of each space to communicate. On the basis of respecting the natural scenery, harmoniously integrate the living needs of modern people into the local nature and culture.

- Project Duration
- Located in Yingshan, China,the project began in Dec 2018 and was completed in Jan 2020.
- Operation Flow
- The art pendants in the atrium of the corridor are like leaves in the sun, and one side of the corridor is like a bamboo path, attracting people to enter. The wood grid screen runs through the connecting space vertically from top to bottom; from the hollowed out, you can see the landscape like the outdoor garden, and the inner and outer layers interact naturally. The space itself has been expressed here. The space temperament makes people feel quiet, soft and implicit.
