Beijing Yanqi Lake Hotel

"Yanqi Lake·Tao Yu" - a landscape poem tempered by kiln fire

At the foot of Yanshan Mountain, Yanqi Lake Hotel uses pottery as ink to lay out oriental textures among the water, light and mountains.

The kiln-stained lines are hand-rubbed by craftsmen, resembling the flowing outline of mountains in a long ink scroll.

Pottery bricks weave "moiré curtain wall" on the eaves corners

The lake light leaks from the hollow space, cutting the morning and dusk into flowing light and shadow puppets

The unique breathing feeling of pottery and the symbiosis of reeds

When the wind blows, the light spots in the gaps between the pottery boards are like the swaying of the blinds on an ancient stage.

When dusk sets in, the building turns into an ancient pottery urn floating on the lake.

Let the temperature of the thousand-year kiln fire condense into the poetry of white space in the modern facade——

Every inch of pottery is a footnote to the landscape.

A dense oriental charm grows out of the rigid structure
