The design of HAY Wuhan Showroom draws inspiration from the repetitive courtyard settlements in Wuhan indigenous dwelling. Three courtyards are arranged in line each employing the imagery of "water(fortune)coming from all sides", the sequence of which creates an explorable and mysterious maze.
Each courtyard represents certain level of privacy, as exactly in a traditional housing, it goes from the foyer, living room, dining space, and then to the bedroom, where lifestyle scenarios composed of HAY furniture is displayed. Proportional window frames are cut in sequence in various sizes to exaggerate the perspectives looking through, so that depth and richness of views are captured as one moves around, likewise in the traditional Chinese Gardens.
