Wanzi (Swastika) Pattern: Connecting Square After Square

A full wall of wooden lattice windows with a continuous swastika pattern. The unit is a square pattern composed of four right-angled hooks. Adjacent units are connected by short lines and share edges, so the entire lattice is a continuous network without boundaries, capable of infinite extension, creating a visually uninterrupted flow. The cross-section of the battens is extremely thin, about two centimeters square, in a deep walnut color; the size of the lattice openings is uniform. The entire lattice is embedded in a full-height doorway, with soft light emanating from behind, making the battens appear as dark silhouettes. Because the pattern is dense and fine, it looks like a textured surface from a distance, and the individual units can only be discerned up close. Avoid: units being independent and unconnected, making the battens thick, inconsistent lattice opening sizes, adding colored and carved decorations.

一整面以萬字連續紋構成的木格窗。單元是一個由四個直角勾組成的方形圖案,相鄰的單元彼此以短線相連並共用邊,因此整片格柵是一個沒有邊界、可以無限延伸的連續網絡,視覺上不會停下來。櫺條的斷面極細,約兩公分見方,深胡桃色;格眼的尺寸統一。整片格柵嵌在一道通高的門洞內,後方透出柔和的光,櫺條呈現為深色的剪影。因為圖案密而細,它在遠處看起來像一片有紋理的面,近看才讀得出單元。避免:讓單元彼此獨立不相連、把櫺條做得粗壯、讓格眼的尺寸不一、加入彩色與雕刻裝飾。
