About KennaXu Gallery Jumba la Sanaa
Nyumba ya Sanaa ya KennaXu ni jumba la sanaa lililopo katika kitongoji cha zamani cha makazi jijini Shenzhen, Uchina. Nafasi yenye ukubwa wa mita za mraba 223 ilibadilishwa kutoka kwa makazi ya awali yaliyokuwa na ghorofa mbili nyembamba na zenye giza. Rangi nyeupe ndiyo inayotawala, ikitengeneza mandhari rahisi na jumuishi inayodhihirisha rangi na muundo wa michoro inayoonyeshwa. Vifaa vilivyotumika ni pamoja na rangi ya mpira (latex paint), utando (membrane), sakafu ya mbao, kioo safi kabisa (ultra-clear glass), kigae cheupe na chuma cheupe kisichoshika kutu (stainless steel). Madirisha yasiyo ya kawaida huruhusu mwanga na sauti za nje kuingia, yakiunganisha jumba la sanaa na maisha ya kila siku ya kitongoji hicho.

Behind the Design
Press Kit
Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- The design team reflected on the relationship between gallery and art space, and discovered more possibilities of the gallery as a public space. Located in an old residential community, the site blends a strong living atmosphere with beautiful natural landscape, making it possible to integrating art aesthetics and learning into daily life.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The project is 223 square meters in all.

- Production Technology
- Latex paint, membrane, wooden flooring, ultra-clear glass, white tile, white stainless steel
- Design Challenge
- There were also some unfavorable conditions as converting the former residence into an art space. The original space consisted of two floors, which were narrow and dim. The first floor had a low ceiling, looking like a storeroom, while the second floor featured an old-styled, disordered and fragmented spatial pattern. The overall space looked so different from an art space.
- Research
- The building, constructed in the 1990s within an old community, is the place where the gallery owner Kenna Xu spent his childhood. It carries his deep affection for Shenzhen, and also breeds his dream of establishing a contemporary art gallery that finds a foothold in the local area and pursues global visibility.
- Inspiration
- The space is dominated by white hue, which produces a modern, simplistic spatial tone as well as an inclusive backdrop that reveals the authenticity of things. It can fully display the color, composition, aesthetics and thinking of exhibited paintings. The design incorporates a sense of "emptiness" to create a free and serene ambience, with a view to enabling harmonious interaction between light and shadow, nature and artworks, and thereby achieving the beauty of art.
- Project Duration
- The project started in November, 2018 and finished in September, 2019 in the Intersection of Yitian Road and Fuqiang Road, Futian District, Shenzhen, China.
- Operation Flow
- The unique windows shake off traditional designs, and act as openings for conveying messages. Meanwhile, those structures bring in the daily chatter of residents, sounds of footsteps and birdsong from outdoor groves, which become background music for the art space. The gallery seems to grow here and closely integrates with the old community.
