The Daci Monestary Teahouse

The Daci Monastery Teahouse is an interior design for a historic building in Chengdu. The teahouse covers about 500 square meters on two floors. The original wooden structure was reinforced and repaired, keeping the aged beams, pillars and carvings. Traditional doors, carved lattice windows and modular partitions divide the space into private rooms and a public lounge. Multi-link sliding folding windows fold to one side, so the enclosed rooms can open into semi-outdoor tea settings. Golden sandalwood and mortise and tenon joints are used without nails or glue.
