The Calligraphy Room / Purple Room

 

The inspiration for creating the Calligraphy Room, located on the first floor of the building was derived from the owner’s visit to the Forbidden City and its surroundings in Beijing, China, in 2018.

 

The concept is based on the Chinese wordings Zi Qi Dong Lai which literally translated to mean “the purple cloud shine from the east of the sky”. Traditionally in Chinese culture, the color purple represents prosperity and good luck, and is associated with royalties and nobles. It is believed purple refers to the North Star which in traditional Chinese astrology is the abode of the Celestial Emperor.
