Located in a traditional Hutong district in Beijing, the project’s structure space is an “L”-shaped neighbourhood, 450 square metres in size. Currently, the space has five old traditional houses and temporary corroded steel houses. The building, which originally hosted company business meetings before going dormant due to poor management, will be transformed into a tea house. The tea house will be an ample place for people to read while enjoying their tea time. Additionally, it will also serve individual dining guests.
