Situated on a linear sunken site facing a reservoir on its west side, this tea house is an addition of an existing open long corridor /pavilion to invite visitors stay for a cup of tea in Damushan Tea Valley, in SongYang, Zhejiang, China.
An open public walkway is introduced and intersecting with indoor tea program to create a “8”shape of internal/external circulation, as a “winding corridor” vs. existing “linear corridor”, as basic elements in Chinese landscape garden.
The tea program is divided into two parts: a double height space on the north part of site to house major group of visitors, facing a shaded plaza on its west with five phoenix trees next to public walkway; two private tea rooms on south part of site organized through a private corridor and taking over the water edge, leave a more secluded alley experience for public walkway,yet create direct open picturesque views for both private rooms, with individual abstract “zen” courtyards on east side to form a contrast of experience.
The building profile is a simplified form from the long corridor, not only as a typical local building language, but also to create a simple yetsublimed space with concrete as both structure and surface material, a continuous center sliced opening on the roof to invite light shadow and views together with other openings through out the building. A tea house in the center of tea valley, might become a church of tea.
