Tianxi No.1 is a sales center for a residential development in the busy downtown area of Shenzhen, China. The interior covers 1900 square metres and follows a modern oriental theme. A wide waterscape marks the entrance, and a 50 metre waterfront footpath leads visitors inside. Metal mesh screens divide the space and partly reveal the areas beyond. A triangular skylight brings daylight onto the water surface. Calligraphy works are deconstructed and placed on 20 turntable installations. The aim is to offer a quiet and natural atmosphere within a commercial district.

- In Tianxi No.1, the "partition" technique is used to define the space rhythm with the virtual metal mesh; through the metal mesh, the vaguely predicted backfield evokes the desire to explore the space.
The project uses extensive indoor architecture, giving full play to the advantage of spatial height, and adopting some geometric composition to open a triangular skylight structure. Light pours to the surface of the water, forming a natural broad light and shadow effect, which introduces the feelings of nature and outdoors into the originally airtight indoor, and enhances the close relationship between man and nature.
Dr. Ren Tianjin's calligraphy works have been deconstructed and reorganized, and are scattered on 20 turntable installations by the concept of contemporary art to write contemporary poetic art through the strokes of tea-stained texture. - Design Challenge
