Regarding Jinzhong Kylin Mansion Hushan Art Gallery

Jinzhong Kylin Mansion Hushan is an art gallery and club interior of 650 square meters in Shenzhen, completed in 2019. Most areas are connected, so the transitions between zones stay open and the atmosphere remains calm. A display wall outside the book bar holds a range of artworks.

Design Details

Unique Properties
A book-house-themed club has been created with a high degree of forward-looking and artistic characteristics. By using "world language" and "east situation", the beauty beyond the space has been created, distinguishing from any existing east expression on the market. Seamlessly transforming between the spirit renouncing the world and the body naturalizing the world, the theme of "Poetic East" reflects the lofty professional goals that the designer commit to inheriting the former achievements.
Inspiration
Jinzhong Kylin Mansion Hushan Art Gallery, with its unique design perspective and new expression form, boldly integrates Chinese aesthetics with modern architectural techniques. In the name of poetic Oriental, the designer tries to use the ancient simplicity and calm demeanor of oriental aesthetics to inject a touch of grace and elegance into the modern lifestyle.
Research
In this case, it can be proved by countless details that the designer deliberates and pursue unify of beauty and feelings. With the lantern made of light-transmitting white lacquered glass in the front desk area, the facade of visual effects of the overall space is rich and structured. It is the focal point and suddenly makes the layout of the space well-arranged. The lantern is elegant with ancient simplicity, which combines the beauty of modern craftsmanship and classical imagery.
Challenge
The designer also has the unique understanding of the use of light and shadow. Whether it is the barbed wires and fine wooden fences in the corridor, the interweaving of light and shadow with fake pines in the banquet hall, you can taste a touch of delicateness and dim beauty. Taking a stroll here, you may feel like walking by the long river of history to experience the heritage of Chinese civilization for thousands of years.
Realization and Technology
The display wall outside the book bar is filled with all kinds of art, which can naturally introduce a fragrance of book into the room from the outside. In the book bar, a thin wooden fence is used as a partition, as that it continues to the external space in order. The texture of the carpet and the fine wooden fence partition seamlessly blend together, and the visual extension on the plane expands the depth of the space.
Operation and Interaction
In this case, the stone floor with rippled pattern is used to fully show the poetic space of "feelings beyond space". There is no water in the scene but the waves are imagined in mind. After seeing, people naturally feel the silence of the room, which is similar to the Japanese rock garden. A corner includes infinite beauty of the world; you hold infinity in the palm of your hand as eternity is in an hour.
Project Duration and Location
The project started in October 2018 in Shenzhen and finished in June 2019 in Shenzhen.
Specifications
The project covers a total of 650 square meters. By connecting most spaces, it breaks the sense of stasis between regional transitions, eliminates the blockage and closure between regions, and blurs the definition of different functional areas, so that naturally creates the necessary sense of leisure and relaxation for the club.
