Appreciation towards Nuno Pimenta for providing the following description:

“享乐主义者”是一间临时性的旅舍，在250欧有限的预算下，建筑师全部使用可回收的材料打造出这件小作品。

The Hedonist is an temporary hotel room constructed only with recycled, recyclable or reused materials and a limited budget of 250€.

“享乐主义者”是德国最具影响力的戏剧节——“曼海姆戏剧节”（2014年）上“Hotel ShabbyShabby”项目的参与作品之一。“Hotel ShabbyShabby”是策展人Raumlaborberlin同音乐节合作发起的项目，该项目邀请设计师在城市最意想不到的地点，设计并建造20座临时旅舍，为客户提供最独特的居住体验。这些旅舍需使用可回收的材料来搭建，且费用不得超过250欧元。所有的旅舍都是在戏剧节前方的工作坊和营地上完成，然后被运送到各自的地点。“享乐主义者”位于Neckarspitze，莱茵河和内卡河的交汇处，在这里既能欣赏到田园牧歌式的自然景观，又能看到工业文明的象征——巨大的轮船从河上漂过。

‘The Hedonist’ was selected to be one of ‘Hotel ShabbyShabby’ rooms for Theather der Welt in Mannheim – the most influential theater festival in Germany. ‘Hotel ShabbyShabby’ was curated by Raumlaborberlin in partnership with the festival and consisted on the design and construction of 20 temporary hotel rooms located in unexpected public spaces of Mannheim that should provide a unique experience to their guests. These rooms should be built only with recycled, reused or recyclable materials and should not exceed the budget of 250€. All the rooms were built in a workshop and construction camp right in front of the National Theatre of Mannheim and then transported to their respective sites. ‘The Hedonist’ was located at Neckarspitze, the exact place where the river Rhine and Neckar converge, a place with incredible 360º views that combine idyllic nature with industrial night lights and big ships passing by.

▽ 基地环境，surroundings

跟基地矛盾的空间要素相一致，关于“享乐主义”的定义也有两种相对立，或者说相互补充的解释：哲学上，“享乐主义”同人类生活中极致的快乐和幸福有关；但在世俗意义上，它贬义的成分更多，指的是个人一味地追求一时痛快和欲望的满足。“享乐主义者”将概念的对立用一间充满先锋意味的房间实现出来。它与使用者对快乐的理解或者是头脑中转瞬即逝的想法相契合，不管是他想要在一个360°美景的地方醒来，还是只想要一个欲火朝天的夜晚。

白色半透明的小屋装有暗示着隐晦的快乐的红色灯光。到了晚上使用者可以通过调节灯的亮度来控制外界能否透过白色的幕帘看到室内的情形。垂直元素的重复出现，以及构件向心的渐变层次都展示出视觉的和谐体验、人性崇拜、手工艺和技术等等的原始意向。只是这次它是通过现代性的朴素的材料展示出来的。

Just like the apparent spatial paradox of this site, the definition of Hedonism has two opposing but somehow complementary interpretations: Whilst philosophically associated with supreme pleasure and happiness in human life, its popular sense may be pejorative and related with the selfish pursuit of momentary gratification and lust. ‘The Hedonist’ translates this dichotomy by being a transformative room; it adapts itself to the user, his interpretation of happiness or simply to a transitory state of mind, whether it means waking up with a beautiful panoramic view of a natural landscape or having a hot one night stand. It offers the pleasure of being alone or the joy of showing off, the delight of a warmth bed or the relish of a joint venture.

Its transparency combined with the use of the red light, as hints of obscure joys, may be hidden or emphasized by the user, as the translucent white curtain reveal or conceal the room’s interior, depending on the intensity of light (day or night, artificial lights on or off). The repetition of vertical elements, as well as the component’s gradual layering towards the center suggest archetypes of visual harmony, human cult, craftmanship and tectonicity… this time around with contemporary humble materials.

▽ 透明性和微妙的视觉效果。Transparency and visual nuances

▽ 所有构件都在房屋外侧以保证内部的清晰和透明。All the structural elements are outside the room space; this remains a clear and transparent area.

▽ 主体结构由木梁、钢管及钢索组成，用以支撑地板和天花板的木梁的原材料是用于制作集装木箱的元件。The main structure is composed by wood beams and steel props braced by steel cables. The beams group and support the floor and ceiling both made with EUR-pallets.

▽ 木材、钢材、PVC不同材料的技术组合。Combination of different materials and techniques – Wood, steel and PVC.

▽ 白天室内。Room interior during daytime.

▽ 到了晚上，红色的灯光让房间变成一个有趣的、带有情色意味的“大红灯笼”。Due to its red filtered flashlight illumination the room transforms itself during nighttime into an intriguing somehow obscene red lantern in the dark.

▽ 使用者可以选择隐藏还是彰显室内的情形。The room interior can be hidden or emphasized by the user, an opportunity to show-off or to tease.

“享乐主义者”因此展示出白与红，良善与邪恶，不透明与透明，含蓄与裸露。使用者可以选择将一切藏在它的里面，还是骄傲地展示给外界。值得一提的是，在“享乐主义者”完工之前，节日期间的住宿已经被预定一空了。

‘The Hedonist’ thus reflects the good or the evil, the white or red, the opacity or the transparency, the shyness or the exhibitionism. It is a room where you can bring all of this inside or proudly show it to the outside.The room was fully booked for the duration of the festival even before its construction completion.
