01场地条件
site conditions

由Heatherwick Studio打造的西安中央文化商务区（CCBD）坐落于天坛遗址及陕西广播电视塔之间，整个商业综合体以立体城市景观为特色，多栋建筑体围绕纵向公园“生命之树”错叠、搭接，通过铺装和绿植填充其间，形成了一系列观景平台。

Designed by Heatherwick Studio, the Xi’an Central Cultural Business District (CCBD) is situated between the ancient Temple of Heaven ruins and the Shaanxi Radio and TV Tower. The entire commercial complex features a three-dimensional urban landscape, with multiple interconnected buildings arranged around the vertical park “Tree of Life.” Paving and lush greenery fill the spaces in between, creating a series of scenic viewing platforms.

由郭莘空间设计工作室设计的晓·茶馆位于商业综合体一栋建筑的顶层，由于错叠的关系，中心商场的屋顶花园天然地成为项目的“户外庭院”，环绕屋顶花园的商业空间相对较少，植物繁茂，原场地层高较高，南面和西面有着通透的视野，当视线望向南边，那一棵由古观音禅寺的银杏树转译而来的“生命之树”，带给我们的不仅是风景，更是项目的设计灵感来源。

Designed by Guo Xin Space Design Studio, Xiao Teahouse is located on the top floor of a building within a commercial complex. Thanks to its staggered layout, the rooftop garden of the central mall naturally serves as the project’s “outdoor courtyard.” The surrounding commercial spaces are relatively sparse, allowing lush greenery to thrive. The original site features high ceilings, with open views to the south and west. When gazing southward, the “Tree of Life”—inspired by the ancient ginkgo tree from Guanyin Temple—offers not just a scenic vista but also the core design inspiration for the entire project.

项目所在建筑的玻璃幕墙并非垂直界面，而是带有一定折角的内退，且开辟出两个出入口。设计将内退区的出入口作为主门，希望弱化场地的领域感，以谦和内敛的姿态迎接客人。

The glass curtain wall of the building is not a vertical plane but features an angled, recessed design with two access points. The design intentionally positions the entrance within this recessed area as the main doorway, aiming to soften the site’s sense of territoriality and welcome guests with a humble, understated gesture.

02结构之于功能
Structure in relation to function

晓·茶馆定位为轻商务接待，有相对私密的包间需求。场地层高超过9米，但不允许加建，通高的玻璃立面虽然带来充足的自然光和开阔的视野，但只有西、南两面的L型采光，结合品牌定位和商务运营的诉求，如何规划包间和散座两个大的功能分区，是首要解决的问题。

▼原始场地情况，Existing site conditions ©郭莘空间设计

Xiao Teahouse is positioned as a light business reception venue, requiring relatively private VIP rooms.The site features a floor height exceeding 9 meters, though no additional construction is permitted. While the full-height glazed façade provides abundant natural light and expansive views, only the L-shaped southern and western exposures offer direct daylight. Given the brand positioning and business operational needs, the primary challenge lies in strategically planning the two major functional zones: private rooms and open seating areas.

首先，利用层高优势，设计将场地的北侧和东侧暗部区域部分抬高，通过高低差将空间划分出两个大的区域，形成北高南低的总体趋势，并由此将视线引向南侧开阔的景观视野。

Capitalizing on the vertical volume, the design elevates portions of the darker northern and eastern zones to create a tiered spatial division. This establishes a general north-high, south-low topography, strategically directing sightlines toward the open southern landscape.

传统商业空间会把采光较好的位置留给包间的私域客户，在晓·茶馆项目中，我们反其道而行，将7个散座分布在空间的西、南采光面，10个包间位列在抬高区域，通过楼梯和三段走廊的串联形成洄游的行走动线和不断变化的观看视角，茂密的植被环绕在空间各处，形成既遮蔽又引导的“端景”，营造出东方园林的探索趣味。

While traditional commercial spaces typically reserve prime window seating for private rooms, our design intentionally positions seven open tea tables along the sunlit western and southern edges, with ten elevated private rooms connected by staircases and three interlinked corridors. This creates a serpentine circulation path with ever-shifting sightlines. Lush vegetation acts as both visual screens and curated “framed views”, evoking the discovery-driven charm of classical Chinese gardens.

晓·茶馆投入使用后，常常出现等位的情况，并且吸引了年轻客群来到散座区喝茶、拍照打卡。作为设计师，“意外走红”的现象，是对我们把最好的位置“让出来”这个设计策略，一个极具积极意义的正向回馈，也实现了工作室一直以来的设计实践所坚持的初衷：设计与商业价值的正向循环。

Since opening, the teahouse has consistently seen waiting lists form, with younger patrons particularly drawn to the open seating area for tea sessions and social media photography. As designers, this unexpected popularity serves as powerful validation of our counterintuitive strategy to “cede the best spaces”—affirming our studio’s longstanding conviction: thoughtful design catalyzes commercial success.

▼“屋中屋”的包间，”Box-in-box” private rooms ©杨磊

为了解决包间的采光问题，我们采用内建筑的做法，构建出“屋中屋”的结构体块，通过一定比例的横窗实现了包间的“间接”采光，产生与室内、室外的链接，这样一来，坐在包间里的客人与靠近窗边的客人都能享受到阳光和自然景观，只是视线的落位不同而已。

To address the lighting challenges in the private rooms, we employed an “architecture within architecture” approach, creating a nested structural volume with strategically placed horizontal windows. This design enables indirect daylighting for the private spaces while maintaining visual connections to both interior and exterior landscapes.

同时，为了避免包间与散座的客人视线交汇，面向西侧散座区的包间，我们有意在“屋中屋”的窗下延伸出带弧度的飘檐，飘檐的弧度、高度均经过精准测算。

To prevent visual interference between private rooms and open seating, we extended curved floating eaves beneath the windows of the west-facing ‘nested pavilions’. Each eave’s arc and elevation were precisely calibrated through sightline studies.

03东方韵味
Oriental Charm

在设计之初，如何以现代手法营造茶空间的东方韵味，一直是困扰我们的问题，当一筹莫展的设计团队再一次望向窗外的生命之树，又找到一些新思路。

From the outset, our central challenge was interpreting the Eastern essence of a tea space through contemporary design language. When the design team reached an impasse, gazing once more at the ‘Tree of Life’ beyond the window sparked fresh inspiration.

由西安古寺“飞檐翘角”所启发的CCBD整体建筑造型，勾勒出“弧线交错”的天际线，生命之树的“银杏树叶”同样呈现出硬朗材质与弧面结构相碰撞的张力。

▼剖面图，section ©郭莘空间设计

The CCBD’s architectural silhouette—influenced by the ‘uplifted eaves and sweeping corners’ of Xi’an’s ancient temples—traces a skyline of ‘interlocking curves.’ Similarly, the ginkgo leaves of the Tree of Life embody a striking tension between rigid materials and fluid surfaces, mirroring this dialogue of tradition and modernity.

于是，传统中式建筑中的挑檐元素被引入到包间的“屋中屋”中，并以穿插、解构、重组的形式延伸至部分包间区域，形成层次丰富的空间关系和自然光的渗透，结合“挑檐”表面的金箔，成为空间中最为强烈的视觉记忆点。

Thus, the traditional Chinese overhanging eave was reimagined within the ‘nested pavilion’ private rooms. Through interlocking, deconstruction, and reassembly, these elements extend into select VIP areas—creating layered spatial relationships and filtered daylight. Clad in gold leaf, the eaves become the space’s most striking visual anchor.

金箔的灵感来自于终南山下古观音禅寺的银杏树，千年光阴成就的金色光芒，通过空间中六万片金箔所转译，当阳光划过，金箔投射出流动、变化的光影，我们以自己的方式隐喻了千年银杏古树的生命力，与窗外的“生命之树”产生对话。六万片金箔，是对意象的塑造，更是设计完成场所精神的锚点。

The gold leaf draws inspiration from the ancient ginkgo tree at Guanyin Zen Monastery beneath Zhongnan Mountain—its millennium-honed golden radiance translated through 60,000 gilded fragments. As sunlight traverses, these flakes cast undulating, ephemeral patterns, our architectural homage to the enduring vitality of the sacred tree, engaging in silent dialogue with the ‘Tree of Life’ beyond the windows. These 60,000 golden pieces are not merely decorative motifs, but anchors of the space’s spiritual essence.

如此，空间便不仅是承载功能的场所，更是触发诗意、情感、记忆的媒介，茶空间的东方韵味亦得以缓缓展开。

Thus transformed, the space transcends functional utility to become a medium evoking poetry, emotion, and memory—where the Eastern sensibility of the tea ceremony unfurls in measured elegance.

04宁静致远
Stillness leads to far-reaching vision

室内地面，包间区域和西、南两侧的散座区域分别使用了木地板、灰色麻石和金砖。这三种自然的材质，既扩展了空间层次和丰富的感知，又铺垫出适宜茶文化的自然基调。

The interior flooring delineates zones through distinct materials: warm timber for private rooms, gray linen stone for western open seating, and golden bricks along the southern perimeter. This natural material palette orchestrates spatial hierarchy while grounding the tea culture in organic tactility.

南面散座区域地面的金砖，颜色与金箔相呼应，其质感、色彩会在光影之间发生细微变化，西侧的灰色麻石肌理粗糙，颜色却更加内敛，通高的白色墙面，既衬托富有质感的材质肌理，又是承载“光影画卷”的绝佳载体，使客人有着明亮、开阔的感受。

The gilded flooring echoes overhead gold leaf installations, its patina shifting subtly with daylight. To the west, the textured gray stone surfaces whisper restraint, their roughness contrasting with soaring white walls that serve dual roles: amplifying material textures and acting as canvases for ever-changing “light paintings,” bathing guests in luminous openness.

与开放、流动的散座区域不同，由于场地高差和“挑檐”延伸的关系，晓·茶馆的包间更具遮蔽感。每个包间都以一种树木命名，木地板便成为最佳选择，与柔软触感的白色布艺沙发、几何线条的黑色木制桌椅，整体营造出一份雅致、静谧的氛围，陶罐器皿、草木植被点缀于各个角落，表达对自然的敬意。

Elevated and sheltered by floating eaves, these timber-floored sanctuaries—each named after a tree species—curate tranquility. Black geometric furniture and white linen sofas compose understated elegance, while hand-thrown ceramics and curated greenery pay homage to nature’s artistry.

在与生命之树的对望中，氤氲着茶香的晓·茶馆，既开阔明净，又宁静雅致，随四季变换，盈盈独立，迎接风的吹拂，捕捉光的流动。

Bathed in tea-scented air, Xiao Teahouse stands as a study in luminous serenity. Through seasonal transformations, it remains a poised vessel—catching wind currents, tracing light trajectories, and mirroring the arboreal wisdom of its ancient ginkgo counterpart.
