Time、Memory and Perception in Space

A true friend to Design Shanghai’s mission to explore the design connections between east and west, Wu Bin has brought his persuasive blend of traditional visual craft and what he calls ‘Modern Orientalism’ to the three interiors he describes here: his own Anji Retreat, the Wukang Road Retreat and the Meri Poodom Hotel. ‘Modern Orientalism’ expresses the humanistic spirit, explores the relationship between human and nature, and integrates art into daily life. It is an engaging design language, a fusion of eastern and western cultures characterized by diverse thinking, drawing inspiration from traditional Chinese culture and art and striking a balance of rationality and sensibility.
