The ceiling is 5 meters high, the layers attracts one’s view, and its black paint helps the lighting to crawl upwards. The four surrounding grey walls are tainted by the simplicity of red bricks. The burnt pattern of the curtain, the lines of outside force, and the spots left on the cement, all are points of surprise for the visitors who walk in. Here, the colorful clothing are just ornaments in a container. The uninhibitedness of the setting is the key. When your eyes roam over the grey floor and its ups and downs, they look spontaneous, yet encompass careful thought. Black iron hangers unfold, adding rhythm and change, going upward, left and right on the wooden wall panels, its three-dimensional shape brings warms and contrast to a single material. The hanging tree trunk casts a shadow like a spider’s web, a metaphor for the experimentalism in this project, and gently shattering the myth of brand names. The employment of cement, brick, recycled material, nude material, burnt curtains and such, is the hope to reclaim the starting point of the designer’s belief in craftsmanship and no compromise, and to redefine the meaning of beauty.
