心灵空间是一个多用途的艺术空间，用于阅读沙龙、艺术展览、活动和聚会。座落在北京东三环高档酒店和写字楼林立的燕沙商业区，与宝格丽酒店和安藤忠太市设计的艺术馆毗邻。作为社区公共设施的一部分，心灵空间为人们提供了一个从繁忙的城市生活中退却的空间，也为人们提供了一个内心平静的空间。人们来到这里是为了放松，相遇，联系，更重要的是，用渴望和希望来激励彼此。

Mind Space is a multi-purpose art space for reading salons, art exhibitions, events and parties. It is located in Yansha Commercial Circle, an area thronged with the premium hotels and office buildings in the East Third Ring Road, Beijing, with Bulgari Hotel and an art museum designed by Tadao Ando in close adjacency. As part of the community public facilities, Mind Space offers people a retreat from the bustling urban life and a space for inner peace. People come here to relax, meet, connect, and more importantly, to inspire each other with aspiration and hope.

“扣除证明是一个比加法更大的挑战。昏暗的灯光和空间中的不完美状态提供了更多的可能性和空间。有时，我们放弃的不是物质上的占有，而是永不停止的欲望.“-孙大勇

”Deduction proves to be a bigger challenge than addition. Dimmed lights and the state of imperfection in the space offer more possibilities and room for comtemplation. At times what we are relunctant to forgo isn't the material possession, but a never-ceasing desire for such.” ——Dayong Sun

心灵空间由四部分组成，即藏书楼、和平环境、活动区和冥想区，空间布局高度灵活。中心有一个多用途的盒子区，使场景从一个花束转移到不同的用途和功能。盒区作为整个空间的核心，是连接事件区和书库的过渡空间。当活动的窗帘将展览馆与活动区分开时，它可以变成讲台或展示厅，也可以在窗帘被移开时成为一个有透明展览空间的休息区。

Comprising four parts, namely, Book Gallery, Peace Cloister, Event Zone and Meditation Zone, Mind Space features a highly flexible spatial layout. A multi-purpose BOX Zone at the center enables the scene-shifting from one anther to accommodate various uses and functions. As the core of the whole space, BOX Zone is a transitional space that connects Event Zone and Book Gallery. It can be turned into rostrum or showcase when the moveable curtains separate the Book Gallery from the Event Zone, or a resting area with transparent space for exhibition when the curtains are removed. 

我更喜欢多变的空间，因为人们的需求总是在变化，灵活的空间可以激励人们去创造。

“I prefer changeable spaces, as peoples’ demands are always changing and flexible spaces can inspire people to create”.

心灵空间也包括一个放松和冥想的地方。铺着鹅卵石的和平文化带着人们走上了一个和平与安宁的空间。在这里，人们可以放下工作的压力和生活中的所有烦恼，与自己呆在一起冥想，试图在生活和工作之间找到最佳的平衡。“我想要创造一个空间，帮助人们跳出日常生活，审视自己的内心世界，并通过与他人的对话来更好地了解自己，从而使他们有能力追求更高层次的个人发展。”

Mind Space also includes a place for relaxing and meditation. A pebble-paved Peace Cloister leads people to a space of peace and tranquility along the steps. Here one may put aside pressure of work and all the troubles in life to stay with oneself and meditate, trying to find the optimal balance between life and work. “I want to create a space to help people jump out of daily routines and examine their inner world, and to better understand themselves through dialogue with others, so they can be empowered to pursue personal development of higher level”.

该空间的特点是暗灰色和木材颜色的色调和樱桃木和香槟金属网的重要性，与灰色墙抵消了这两种材料的光泽。盒子，作为空间的中心，是用木质材料突出显示的。大范围的灰色色调作为背景。金属网格被安装在活动区，和平衣柜和冥想区的天花板上。这些透明而光滑的金属网格在空间中隐约可见，丰富了空间的层次和意义。

The space features darkish gray and wood color in tone and cherrywood and champagne metallic mesh in materiality, with the gray walling offsetting the gloss of the two materials. BOX, as the centerpiece of the space, is highlighted with wooden materials. Large expanse of gray tone serves as the background. Metallic meshes are installed at the ceiling of the Event Zone, Peace Cloister and Meditation Zone. These transparent and glossy metallic meshes are vaguely visible in the space, enriching the hierarchies and meanings of the space.

采用混合照明方法，包括重音照明和环境照明，后者促进空间的气氛。例如，墙壁的间接照明照亮了书架上的书籍，营造了一种温暖舒适的阅读氛围。和平衣柜中的背光金属网格模仿佛堂地板反射的暗淡光线，创造了一个宁静而隐秘的空间。盒子区和活动区提供直接照明，以满足各种活动和展览的需要。前台三个定制的灯箱特色灯光响应空间词汇，有助于空间的动态光和阴影效果。

A combined lighting approach including accent lighting and ambient lighting is employed, with the latter fostering the atmosphere of the space. For example, the indirect lighting of walling lights up the books on the bookshelf, fostering a warm and cosy reading atmosphere. The backlit metallic meshes in the Peace Cloister mimics the dim light reflected by the flooring in a Buddha Hall, creating a tranquil and secluded space. Direct lighting is provided at the BOX Zone and Event Zone to accommodate the demands of various events and exhibitions. Three custommade BOX featured lights at the front desk respond to the spatial vocabulary and contribute to a dynamic light and shadow effect of the space.

从美学的角度看，心灵空间追求的是和平而又含蓄的东方哲学。瓦比萨比代表了禅宗的一种审美追求和生存地位。朦胧和不完美为我们的生活提供了更多的思考和充实的空间。“删除可能比添加更困难。有时，我们不愿放手的不是物质上的东西，而是我们对它们的永不饱和的欲望。“

Aesthetically, Mind Space pursues the peaceful and reserved oriental philosophy. Wabi Sabi represents a kind of aesthetic pursuit and living status from Zen. Dimness and imperfection allow for more room to think and infill in our life. “Deleting could be more difficult than adding. Sometimes what we are reluctant to let go is not the materialistic things, but the never-saturated desire we hold for them.”
