About Xi Space Ostal del Tè

Xi Space es un ostal del tè situat a Ningbo, en China, amb una susfàcia de 110 mètres quadrats. L'interior amassa una sala de tè, una zòna de trabalh e un espaci d'exposicion per una colleccion privada d'utisses de tè, de cal·ligrafia e de pintura. Los teules, lo boès, lo marme e las pinturas forman la principala paleta de materials. La disposicion balha al ritual quotidian del tè un quadre calm e ordenat. Lo disenh reflectís la crotz que los objèctes bèls arrevisclan l'esperit e que collectar es un acte de suènh de las causas mai que non pas una recèrca de riquesa. L'espaci es concebut pel repaus, lo trabalh e lo partatge amb los amics.
