The Design
About Centennial Shameen Design d'intérieur d'espace culturel
Centennial Shameen est un espace culturel aménagé à l'intérieur d'un bâtiment historique de l'île de Shamian, à Guangzhou, en Chine. Achevé en 1862, l'édifice conserve en façade sa composition symétrique d'origine, les proportions précises de ses portes et fenêtres ainsi que ses riches moulures. À l'intérieur, dans un volume de 260 mètres carrés doté d'une hauteur sous plafond de 4,55 mètres, un entresol en acier vient créer un niveau intermédiaire reposant sur une structure porteuse indépendante. L'espace accueille des expositions d'art ainsi qu'une maison de thé ouverte au quartier. Les matériaux inédits et le nouvel éclairage contrastent nettement avec l'ancien système de piliers.
