Art is the carrier of the spirit of bridging space,
Not a simple limit of some kind of addition or subtraction,
Sometimes it's a deconstruction.
Implement another kind of anti-deconstruction.
— Simon, Art Consultant
As early as the era of the combined use of copper and stone, Liangzhu in the heart of Yuhang, Zhejiang Province, had the imprint of the origin of civilization, and left a legendary color for posterity to admire and study for a while. Throughout the ages, in this mysterious and magical land, five thousand years of civilization have traveled through it, traversing the integration and growth of folklore, culture, art and nature, and the will and underlying form of the earth have been inexhaustible. When people walk freely between the mountains and rivers, walking lightly and with freedom, they are comfortable and happy.
In liangzhu's last lake and mountain collection, the Junxi Clubhouse is an excellent demonstration of the interpretation of natural secrets and new traces of life, and is evolving the thousand-year-old land and cultural heritage of Liangzhu. WED Zhongxi Design, which stands on the scale of art and condenses spiritual strength, served as an art consultant for the Junxi Club in this case, sublimating the spirit of artistic creation from the professional dimension of furnishing aesthetics and the avant-garde technique of deconstruction.
Regarding Liangzhu culture, what posterity sees comes from historical memory, and all feelings are integrated into the current life. The Liangzhu life paradigm that the art consultant Simon wants to shape is inseparable from the precipitation of collective memory, so in the search for the source of civilization, in the new painting of the era, people can wander in the art and life of the living room. From the spiritual core of Liangzhu culture's "unity of heaven and man" to Zhuangzi's thought, which is highly compatible with space, he has turned "An" into the title of the spirit of space, so that the life of some people in the house has a joy from the heart. "In the final analysis, 'An' is a state of physical and mental freedom, and we hope to take the power of art as the core yardstick, from the void to the realm, from the virtual reality, full of yearning, demonstrating life, and reading the original heart in pleasant resonance."
Gullihan's sculpture "Waves"
From a distance, it is a wave, and if you look closely, it is a big fish, and the waves turn into a bird... Designers use artwork to realize the point of the story situation. The artist reshapes and decomposes the natural objects, adding hidden symbols at the spiritual level, so that the objects have the character and vitality of the waves. The work is fixed on the wild posture of nature, and a delicate poetic balance is obtained in the contrast between movement and static.
Idleness is not only the idleness of the individual, but the freedom and inclusiveness of All-That-Is. The reception area establishes courtesy in restraint, the realm of mountains and rivers in the heart is perceived by everyone, and the leisure with spiritual value is visualized here. The art form of leisure takes the natural context of the modern East – and the landscape dwellers also come with more pure freedom and adventure.
Digiway X Rong BaoZhai "Hipster Yeah Feast"
"The dialogue between tradition and trend, the interweaving of fun and civilization will make the space strong and powerful, and at the same time give the space a more novel, interesting and free spatial vocabulary." In the process of thinking about how Zhuangzi's thought and space can be connected, WED Zhongxi Design implanted the "Hipster YEAH Feast" created by artist Digiway and Rong Baozhai into the space.
The time-lapse, free and casual, and staggered feast of time and space depicted in the work has become the artistic blueprint of this corner, and in the depiction of contemporary lifestyles, it roams in the romantic aesthetic painting of wanton and magnificent fantasy, and a surreal inspiration night feast that breaks through the limitations of space and geography begins wonderfully, opening up the "blissful" space between the negotiation area and the tea and wine shop.
Belonging to the life of Hangzhou, there is often tea and wine. Tea and wine, low-key and ostentatious, born into the world, art consultant Simon in the space to reach a new, three-dimensional, emotional connection, so that people in the higher level of understanding of things, can be purely happy.
What is cherished here is also this experience of "coming with pleasure and returning with pleasure". The comprehensive leisure space, in the form of tea and wine shop expression, calm, elegant and trendy, so that guests here can enjoy the natural land of Mingyu Lake at the same time, but also enjoy the song of silk bamboo, sake drinks, and the pleasure of tea elegance.
As a result, retro mood and futurism blend here - transcending history, breaking through scenes, walking into paintings, and deriving into the way of life of modern people. Each person who is placed in it enjoys freedom with a broad state of mind, immersed in a hedonistic roaming that integrates art, tea and wine, food, music and landscapes.
Park Chung-tae "Music"
The new school of calligraphy "Music" responds with a bold and cheerful posture, leisurely and exclusively enjoying the majestic imagery, rich imagination, and open emotion in line with the spatial atmosphere, and praising the state of return to the pure with a purer modern design language.
Thai Artist POPKAPI "Fish"
Going deep into the VIP room and audio-visual room, the spatial expression of the "Autumn Water" chapter is a self-consistent idea, in order to bring guests the state of mind of "sub-fish, knowing the joy of fish". If Beihai's conversation with Hebo allows the return to the real world, the art consultant Simon grasps the concept from the self-contained fable and verifies the possibility of relative art and absolute life.
Continue to read the scenery, with a long-term vision to examine the vast changes in the human world. The collision of macro and micro, in the dialectical correlation shown by art consultant Simon, reaches the taste of a river of autumn water.
Wang Huaiqing "Feathers"
The structural factors that have attracted the attention of traditional Chinese art have been creatively transformed into modern in Feathers and grown in culture. The figurative picture does not hide the abstract spirit in it, and the connotation of Eastern culture and the technique of Western expression are intertwined here.
The negative layer unfolds with the theme of "The Theory of Qi", with the light music in the ear, the ancient temple sandalwood that flows in the space is scattered, and people are immersed in the pleasure of comfort and relaxation, as if "heaven and earth are born with me, and all things are one with me", and the vast realm of life is highly summarized.
Wang Shuchen's "Message of Happiness"
In the double feast of vision and thought, art is a very important keyword. Art consultant Simon has created a gallery-like intriguing space through the paintings and sculptures of several artists. The creativity of art comes from the texture of life, which can be seen from the language of painting, and the gentle and illusory "Feathers" and the ancient humble "Message of Happiness" are light and heavy in the space, so that the guests' emotions are slowly relaxed and gradually lazy.
Korean Artist Quan Neng "Drunken Night (2)"
In a world created by power, there is no contradiction between truth and absurdity. "I don't distinguish between reality and imagination, past and present, East and West, art and everyday. All history and art have our daily lives. All history and art from everyday life. ”
There is no owner and guest, no inside and outside, no ancient and modern. In the view of Simon, an art consultant, the so-called connection between body and mind, the freedom of art is always in the dialogue between tradition and trend, the progress of material and immaterial, the gap between the past and the future, reaching a realm beyond fun.

Guided by the sense of smell, guests linger in the space of feast, immersed in a hedonistic roaming that integrates art, tea and wine, food, music and landscape, and the connection between the transcendent senses, metaphysical spirit and space is quietly reshaped.
Between lakes and mountains, under the elegant realm. Eating delicious food, tasting tea, discussing the longitude and latitude, and meeting happily, spreading out the feast of the Tao of zhiyin gathering. Art consultant Simon shapes the dialogue between people and food, people and culture, people and space, not only a taste on the tip of the tongue, but also a presentation of the aesthetics of life, hiding their own free and uninhibited attitudes, just like Zhuang Zhou Mengdi.
At the Junxi Clubhouse, art, as a subtle medium, is the most powerful link in the spiritual life, and people can see the hope of the original heart through the appearance and internal drive of art. Just as WED Zhongxi design gives space artistic freedom, art also constitutes the storytelling of the scene, between the richness of ancient and modern China and foreign countries and the unlimited possibilities, nature has divinely helped to achieve a pure urban parlor, and finally with the blessing of comfortable spiritual height and relaxed life purpose, accommodating the leisurely years and personnel here.
