Zen Art Space——Shichahai Traditional Courtyard Renovation

The project, preserves a traditional courtyard with two central courts and old trees. The renovated space merges culture, art, and life aesthetics. It optimizes structure and circulation, showcasing heritage and innovation. Introducing a glass structure revived the traditional courtyard function, connecting buildings and integrating with new art functions. Excavation added layers to the one-story layout, adopting a black-and-white color scheme suitable for exhibitions. The design, breaking the single--level layout, includes lower courtyards, embodying an Eastern Zen philosophy.
