Entry Description

Before reformed, the tea house is light-proof, close and old. Designers, Shen Mo and Tao Jianpu communicated with the owner and analyzed the tea house, hoping to break the tradition also keep the tradition, to make culture and the building together prosperous. Designers keep traditional bearing wood, to do subtraction to the designing, to adopt big French windows, to expose bones of the building. A big glass box in the entrance means a intangible limit, not only integrating surrounding scenery with indoor space, but also increase lighting and permeability.
