Marked by its original Victorian-style architecture, with Western-style gardens, the artistic venue known as the Song Art Museum, designed by Vermilion Zhou Design Group, can be found in Beijing, China. In designing this project, a relationship was created between the building and the courtyards, and over 190 pine trees were scattered throughout the garden. The art gallery develops within the main building. The classical buildings have been restored and the oriental style of the museum remains true to its origins. In the Chinese art of painting, leaving a blank space is the highest artistic concept, while geometric form is the most objective expression of Western logic and thought. Therefore, in the architecture of the gallery, Western symbolism was removed to make way for the purest white and different geometric structures were used to connect and create a new corridor. The Song Art Museum is an "art container”, with art as the pillar and the container as the supplement. Here, contemporary art takes many forms. The landscape is reflected from the interior to the exterior, whose oriental brushstrokes have become a natural rhythm of reciprocal reflection between traditional and modern architecture. This project was worthy, in 2021, of the Architizer A + Firm Award in the category of Best in Typology - Interior Design - Institutional/Cultural.
