Arthouse

The designer treats the client’s property developments as individual “art piece” and creates a state-of-the-art establishment to strategically house more than one particular project. “Arthouse” is thus constructed in Hangzhou with project-art galleries on the first two floors and a café/bar on the third.A combination of abstract landscape is inserted into the architectural framework for enhancing a stronger bond between the exhibition area and public space within the gallery.Vertical installations in geometric state are constructed to fill up the void in the interior.Fragmented installations of small triangles are placed around where exhibits live. The designer aims to break the boundary, edge or limitation of art pieces, hence, encourages an intimate relationship between space and people.
