ANZAS Dance Studio

It is a dance studio planned to the corner of the building in the Beijing city. What is done in the studio is to confirm the behaviour of the body.

In the view of being repeated by the mirror, changing dizzyingly, a sense of existence of the floor becomes important. Paradoxically speaking, anything but the floor is unnecessary to be perceived.

Then I imagined a space wrapped in a deep fog. It was felt that the scenery in the fog in which everything except ground is near whiteout condition was proper to this dance studio.

Grainy and deep coloured tigerwood (Muiracatiara) is used for the floor, and all the other things are painted white so that the floor gets remarkable. By painting a white ceramic paint in a dot gradation on the mirror, the floor merges far into the wall.

When it sets foot on the studio, an innumerable white particle wraps the body.

The floor merges gradually in a deep boundary, and senses of depth are lost.

Although the dance studio is mostly a dull space with only the mirror, by blurring everything but the floor without assuming its existence, a fantastic space has been created.
