Urban Carpet 8x5 - the fifth

2009-10-23 10:39:52 GMT2009-10-23 18:39:52 (Beijing Time)  City Weekend

For the first time ever eight urban carpets will be shown as one series in the same space. The five exhibitions will fill five Siheyuan courtyard houses, chosen as the snapshot of different contemporary ways of living in old Beijing.

Each event will last for one day only offering a unique chance to observe the uncommon interaction between carpets, environment and local people’s lives.

The quadrangle house in Zhuzhong Hutong shows how an ancient residential dwelling nowadays offers a very high quality contemporary refuge.

During the past 50 years Beijing Siheyuans revealed an extremely strong capability in adapting their structures to different lifestyles and needs throughout the changing of times.

Take pleasure in entering the quite domestic intimacy of this charming and secret courthouse with garden. But please remember, do keep off the grass. Please find uploaded information at: www.instanthutong.com/news.htm
