Damascus・Reception Hall Interior

An interior of a formal reception hall. The entrance features a sunken marble mosaic section and a small fountain. Raised seating areas on both sides are covered with carpets and wall-length divans. The walls are painted wooden panels in gold and indigo, and the ceiling is a star-patterned painted wooden grid. A row of small stained-glass windows high up casts light spots. Avoid: making the floor at a single height, replacing painted panels with white walls, placing Western-style sofa sets in the center, using bright, uniform modern lighting.

一間正式接待廳。入口是下沉的大理石拼花段與小噴泉,兩側抬高的坐區鋪滿地毯與沿牆的長榻,牆面是金與靛的彩繪木鑲板,天花是星形格子的彩繪木作,高處一排彩色玻璃小窗灑下光斑。避免:把地坪做成同一高度、用白牆取代彩繪鑲板、在中央放置西式沙發組、使用明亮均勻的現代照明。
