The Great (Bamboo) Wall House is a handsome and successful exploration for new forms of dwellings on the Chinese mainland. Kengo Kuma chose to leave the original geographical features intact and use locally produced materials as much as possible. Indoors, the material encloses the stairwell and living spaces to great effect. The Eastern simplicity of the décor creates an ethereal, meditative atmosphere informed by subtle changes in the weather and landscape.
