住宅

A traditional literati heart house

[ad_1]

古之名士皆有桃源之癖
閉門造之，徜徉其間
偶避聲色犬馬
往來俱是清流
人生適意無過於此

一友性恬淡、富收藏，前歲購屋，未及半畝。居身城市，雅無塵俗之囂；背樹臨江，可藉四時佳色。後經隨安山房主人引薦，托餘擬築雅舍，以為掃榻坐臥之所。

Since ancient times, the literati admires the Xanadu, ” Close the door, one can turn back to a pure heart like practicing in a deep mountain and people coming all have resonate with you.” it is a free and unfettered lifestyle. The owners of the house are knowledgeable unique collectors with rich collection. They bought the house that is less than half acre in previous year and area. Although the house is in central city, it located in a quiet spot in a noisy neighborhood where the back is woods and the front is river. Here, one can enjoy the beauty of the four seasons.

入門，當面玻璃門扇障之，似可籠煙篩月，窈然靜深。外設高幾，几上立宋朝盤口瓶、明代缽式爐各一，小而俱雅；又置一清代青花繡墩於門右，以供佳客更置鞋履。循左而南，可通廚房、茶室，長廊一壁亮面磚與櫻桃木凹凸相間，幽渺逶迤，南北互不相窺。折北為廳堂，外側隔斷虛實相間，又有東西二口，宛轉皆通。牆上有緙絲繡、懸黑底橫匾；下設長案，清代德化窯玉瓷觀音供於上；宋金鈞窯小爐傍其右，篆煙裊裊，有若在雲霧中。正中置沙發、圓幾，又有明式禪椅、幾榻分峙其中，中西合璧，逸思杳然。

Entering the door, there is a glass door as a barrier. In front of the barrier, a high table is settled with a Song Dynasty Handicap bottle and a Ming Dynasty pan furnace, which is small and quaint. On the right side of the door , a Qing Dynasty blue on white drum stool is placed for the guests to change shoes. Turning to the left is the south side of the house, which leads to the kitchen and tea room. The wall of the corridor is decorated with cherry wood and glossy tiles, which makes people feel deep and quiet. Turning to the left, we enter the main hall. A Bogut frame demarcates the public space. There is a silk artwork on the main wall. In front of the wall, set a long table where there are statue of Avalokitesvara of Qing Dynasty and a small furnace of the Song Dynasty. In the middle of the hall, there are three-person sofa with a low round table and two Ming-style chairs.

再北，為茶室。北側嵌以落地窗，臨虛成框，濃翠入窗，宛然成畫；又以八角漏窗，洞開粉壁，與東側書房互通消息。下置花幾，几上添古松盆景，虯枝橫出，別饒佳趣。閒坐此間，烹茶坐話、聽雨觀雲，溶溶月色，瑟瑟風聲，四時爛漫，收之不盡。

Further north, it is the public tea room with french windows. Through the window, you can enjoy the view that trees swaying in the wind. On the north wall, a bay leaking window creates a special connection between the study room and the tea room . Under the window, there is a table with potted plants increasing the pleasures of life.

未出廳堂，洞見一壁木屋，嵌以菱花槅扇窗者，乃餐廳。上承梁椽，下啟槅扇，兼通陽台，半掩半通，恰如臨風小閣。順廊而東，臥室三楹，澡浴之室翼之。書齋兩楹，分列南北。南者，有案、有椅、有櫥、有架，架上盡列法書名繪，簾攏掩映，四座生涼。北者，設一榻於軒窗之下，以備主人日長高臥。又有清代學者俞樾應景楹聯懸於兩側，曰：“風捲竹聲來午枕，雨蒸花氣入丁簾”，清味頓生。昔人所謂臥遊，猶借四壁圖畫，主人似較勝之。方寸之間，時可寓目；片景在案，臥遊思古。

Opposite the hall, it is the dining room. The original wall was replaced by the cherry wood partition which was formed from lattice window and an original beam. Through the dining room, you can get to the balcony. The storage room is next to dining room. Along the east corridor, there are three bedrooms and two study rooms. In the south study room, there are tables , chairs, cabinets, and shelves that full of calligraphy work. Thanks to bamboo curtains, the whole space is cool. In the north study room, there is a couch under the window where the owner can take a nap. A ancient couplets which are written by Yu Yuying, a scholar of the Qing Dynasty hangs on the wall: “Gust of wind blowing, bamboo sway, coming to the afternoon dream. The fragrance of flower floats in with rain through the curtain.” The ancients called that “woyou” is to visit the natural landscape through the paintings on the wall. While the owner of the house seems to be far more better than this. Between the sq uare inches, you can see the world; a table a couch, enough to realize “woyou”.
