Tianjin Yunzhu apartment are located in Tianjin, China. Tianjin was the most important commercial port in northern China after the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Many western business people came to Tianjin, where western culture collided and blended with eastern culture. Art Deco, which originated in Paris at the beginning of the 20th century and flourished in Hollywood, has been popular for nearly a hundred years. Art Deco is full of the spirit of pioneering innovation and embracing the future and has a deep connection with the history and culture of Tianjin. Art Deco buildings constitute the imagination and memory of this northern metropolis for generations of Chinese people.



Inspired by the culture and history of Tianjin, the Yuan-Art team continues the Art Deco spirit with an eclectic lifestyle. The design team combines oriental taste with modern avant-garde, classical symmetry, and modern simplicity in this project. While paying tribute to the past, it also explores the future.



Yuan-Art's team improved the central axis treatment method of traditional decorative arts, leading from the kitchen, dining room, and living room to the balcony with an invisible axis, showing a relaxed and orderly space rhythm.The symmetrically placed tables and chairs in the restaurant reflect the ritual sense of life. The marble is the protagonist in the form of the dining table, the grey velvet seats, the bronze and the white dining table form a strong contrast in color and material. The chandelier above the dining table is composed of irregular metal shapes, which are geometrically and mechanically beautiful.



The master bedroom is dominated by calming shades of brown and grey. Metal, wood, leather, velvet, and mirror surfaces are mixed and matched to create a harmonious sense of depth of field. The sharp color contrast not only gives the space a full sense of ritual, but also creates the space aesthetics full of life and artistic philosophy. Yuan-Art team hopes to weave the classics of time into it, creating a residence that eclects Eastern and Western cultures and blends ancient and modern.
