Stream-side flowers and the Zen mind, facing each other in silence.” Capturing the essence of “Zen mind,” the design aims to evoke spiritual comfort and psychological contentment. Drawing enlightenment from the cultivation of deep valleys and quiet streams, and appreciating tranquil delights from the quiet contemplation of swaying wild flowers, the design dissolves deep into the soul as an introspective joy that cleanses the heart. The carefree, serene state of mind blends seamlessly with the quiet, secluded surroundings, offering visitors an experience of arriving with high spirits and returning fully satisfied.
