CIFI. PHENOMENON SALES CENTER
In the design of the CIFI. Phenomenon Sales Center, WJ STUDIO weaves water elements through space, using floor-to-ceiling glazing to dissolve boundaries between interior and landscape. A floating walkway threads above reflective pools, orchestrating fluid circulation. Washi paper’s soft luminescence dialogues with volcanic basalt’s rugged texture, creating a primal-modern balance of light, shadow, and materiality. At the heart lies a tea pavilion reimagining Han Dynasty timber structures, where gold-leaf lacquer walls converse with matte stone evoking ancient ramparts. Sunken seating areas showcase cultural artifacts like bronze tiger tallies, while calligraphy scrolls cascade as cultural totems. This spatial narrative interlaces Xi’an’s heritage with natural poetics, crafting a poetic bridge between historical consciousness and contemporary living.
