Xiamen: a showroom route from living wall to dressing room

The Xiamen experience center is documented in two plans and photographs spanning living storage, a social kitchen, dining, dressing and bathroom displays. It is a showroom reference, offering a clear way to compare coordinated systems across spaces.

Start with the spatial arrangement.

The two original plans describe different parts of the experience-center route. A long, narrower arrangement and a broader connected arrangement allow several room settings to be read in sequence. Use the stair and the larger seating areas as orientation points. The photographs then show how the display changes from a living wall to a kitchen island and on to dressing storage. A showroom stages choices for comparison; it should not be presented as a single family home.

Both drawings are shown with their original annotations. The English guide explains the showroom sequence without asserting a measured visitor route or construction dimensions.

The source drawing is retained so that walls, doors, stairs and dimension notes remain traceable. Open each image to inspect the original. Use the English analysis alongside it; these archive drawings are not issued for construction.

The comparison reads photographs and drawings from the same project. It does not certify that every plan dimension matches the completed space.

03 / Room and detail

Compare complete room settings

The living wall, island and dining views place storage within a wider room setting. The photographs show how tall storage, low furniture and suspended shelving carry different visual weights. For an overseas project brief, this is a useful way to separate the room composition from the list of cabinet units. Start with the room, then identify which element needs closed storage, open display or a clear working surface.

Living storage: varied shelf openings sit within a broader closed composition.
Kitchen island with a long timber counter and tall storage behind
Social kitchen: the island connects a working surface with dining and display.
Dining table beside a glass screen and a long sideboard
Dining: the table and sideboard are shown together with a glazed boundary.

Sideboard: a lower cabinet and lighter wall storage provide a separate composition.
04 / Room and detail

From a wardrobe elevation to the working interior

The dressing-room photographs include the surrounding glass-front bays, the central island and a divided drawer. Together they explain the storage system more clearly than a single closed-front view. Use the wide image to discuss circulation and the detail image to discuss the contents. Actual drawer construction, slide choice, lighting and internal dimensions require their own project specification.

Dressing room with glass-front hanging storage and a central bench
Dressing room: glazed bays make the hanging and shelf arrangement visible.
Dressing island between illuminated glass-front wardrobe bays
Dressing island: the central unit is viewed with the surrounding wardrobe elevations.
Divided accessory drawer with separate compartments for small items
Drawer detail: divided compartments give small accessories their own positions.
05 / Room and detail

Use contrast to make the choices legible

The project also includes a quieter closed wardrobe and a colored vanity display. These should be read as alternatives within the showroom, not proof that one material system is suitable for every room. Compare representative finishes and the complete wet-area assembly separately. A coordinated home can share a design language while using different substrates, fittings and service details where the task changes.
