What is present is considered beneficial, 

what is absent is considered useful.

Objects are "presence", while the space is "absence. The design of Rose Gallery uses the "void" of absence to support the profound essence of presence. The space becomes a vessel for the objects, a quiet backdrop that elevates each piece of ancient porcelain.

01 Space: A House within a House

The pure and minimalist space, like an unglazed bisque, allows the objects within it to breathe, stretch, and grow...The layered spatial progression found in traditional Chinese architecture is subtly embedded here. With its distinct beam structure and solitary columns, the "concrete box" is cleverly transformed into a "house within a house," imbued with a vibrant, ancient resonance.

02 Light and Shadow: Dialogue with Light

There is no harshness of direct light; instead, a soft, diffused light permeates the space around the objects. It evokes an era before glass, when sunlight filtered through wooden lattices, casting a gentle and warm glow. As the light dims, the iridescence of the Jianzhan bowls and the rich patina of the ancient porcelain slowly emerge. This illumination acts as a bridge, allowing contemporary viewers to perceive the objects' true beauty within an ambiance reminiscent of the past.

03 Objects: Seeing the Large in the Small

One object, one world. Visitors do not search amidst a dazzling collection. Instead, they sit quietly, untying the cloth-wrapped bundles by hand, perceiving each object as it is unwrapped: the cloud-like shadows in the Ru ware's sky-blue glaze, the universe reflected in the Jianzhan's unpredictable kiln effects...This slow, intimate dialogue with a few select pieces allows the ancient porcelain to resonate with the viewer's inner world. This is the epitome of the Chinese literati aesthetic: "seeing the large in the small." 

Space as the vessel, supporting its form; Light and shadow as the brush, enriching its color; Objects as the heart, conveying its meaning.

May every object, in its most fitting context, reveal its singular beauty.
