The space
A project rooted in the tradition of the Chinese tea house, where the ritual of the tea ceremony is woven into the spatial narrative. Dark-toned materials — timber furniture, metallic screens, and stone walls — are set in deliberate contrast with the brightness of the natural elements beyond, creating an interior that feels both grounded and quietly ceremonial.
