Subconscious Day Spa is a merging of art forms, an oscillation between design and painting to expand our creativity. We drew design inspiration from the hand scroll “Nine Dragons” painted by Chen Rong in 1244. In his painting, apparitions of nine dragons fly amongst clouds and mountains but never appear as fully visible creatures, suggesting the role of spiritual guardians of this natural space. Inspired by the power and majesty of these ethereal beings, we placed glimpses of a dragon throughout the trapezoidal lobby, as though soaring throughout each corner of the spa. The head of the dragon appears high above the reception, watching over the glass entryway that leads to the internal pathways. The three-dimensional representation of this dragon painting, along with the symmetrical positioning of the two doorways, the tilted walls, and the mirror- imaged design shelving, further elicit a feeling of profound presence, as if summoning this divine being into our human lives.

The pathways to each treatment room use a dark monochromatic palette, evoking a space out of time. There are two distinct paths, designed to reflect one’s emotional state before and after intimate treatments. The arrival path explores a more lively combination of sensory lighting with a miniature organic landscape garden. The departure path embodies a minimal use of textured material, bringing out a sense of simplicity and peace. As one passes through the dark pathways into each treatment room, the mood transforms to a softer, brighter mode, signaling an arrival into a new realm.

In the center of each treatment room, we placed the focus on works of original art by the designer herself. Each art piece, painted with ink and watercolor on unconventional rice paper, depicts a pure intensity of organic gesture and movement reflecting the spa’s dragon guardian spirit. 

桑格水疗中心是集各种艺术形式于一体的空间呈现，是室内设计和画作的创意在实体空间的共舞。我们的设计灵感来自于 1244 年南宋画家陈容的手卷“九⻰图”。在他的这幅图里，九⻰之魂姿，或攀伏山岩之上，或游行于云空之中，却绝无完整的实体⻰身之相，一如这大自然时空里精神和灵魂的守护者，无处不存却无实在之影。

设计师通过桑格，来回应⻰文化的神秘，唯美和雄力，这梯形大堂里嵌放的⻰身各处的掠影画图，让⻰声⻰势回荡在整个水疗中心的⻆⻆落落。⻰首在接待处上方若隐若现，俯瞰水疗中心的玻璃大⻔，和由大⻔蜿蜒出来的通往水疗室的小路。这巧妙布置在各处的⻰的身体，立体感十足，配上对称互望的两条⻔廊，倾斜的墙壁，还有镜像互望的设计感的柜子，像是生动久远的⻰之居所，召唤我们内在，我本自有的，⻰的守护和力量。

引向每个治疗室的通道，用深色的木料和灯光，恍若穿行至别样的时空。两条通道的设计对比感强烈，是每一个客人在治疗前和治疗后的心绪之影。来时的路是活泼

的灯光和小小的生机盎然的景观花园。离开的路用极少的纹理材料，感觉极简而平静。这种设计寓意了桑格水疗的哲学，沿着昏暗的小路进入治疗室，我们的心情逐渐温柔明朗，一如治疗引领我们进入新的身心领界。

在每一间治疗室的中央，我们陈列的是桑格的设计师的原创画作。每一幅画作，用墨和水彩挥毫于非传统的宣纸上，是栩栩如生的万物之姿，灵动有力，写意出桑格水疗所祈愿的⻰之精神。
