China Style

Calling all Sinophiles


A traditional Chinese temple mingles with a minimalist Shigeru Ban villa, a Shanghai hotel that holds the world record for the tallest hotel, and a luxurious Beijing club in this compact tour of China’s most exceptional interiors. Proposing a refreshing blend of antiquity and modernity, these images exude feelings of simplicity, Zen, and wellbeing.
