Project Positioning：Culture and arts suiting both refined and popular tastes

Create a simple and elegant life in a quiet environment with winding paths and surrounded by green woods, and reflect the art of life of the people by the canal by focusing on music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, incense and tea.

The traditional tea house is mainly built by using stone, cloth, wood, metal and leather materials. The background wall in the foyer is designed with spunk silk with partial embroidery. The spunk silk, which is long enough to reach the floor, is delicately wove in an overlapping way to give an effect of layering and to show the purity in the space and the peace in old days.
