源于历史，归于自然
Originate fromhistory, return to nature
项目位于无锡南禅寺脚下，旧民居群中，清名桥古运河之滨，故取名为“南禅观水”。随着时代变迁和城市更新，本哲在解构民宿建筑新含义的同时，又传承了历史文化遗产的精髓。
Thisproject is located at the foot of Nanchan Temple in Wuxi, among a cluster of civilian houses near Qingming Bridge at the bank of anancient canal; hence the name“Sincere Hotel ,Wuxi”. With the changes of times and the renewal of city, Benzhedeconstructs the new meaning ofguesthouse architecture while inheriting theessence ofhistorical and cultural heritage.

原址是典型的传统三进式院落，前低后高，较为保守。旧建筑四周封闭，室内光感不强，楼道狭窄，藏匿了许多安全隐患。改造后的建筑，依旧白墙黛瓦，小桥流水，保留了这座江南小院古朴典雅的气息，增加了更多的开放空间。铁锈板、简约的落地玻璃及独特的导向系统等现代设计元素，赋予了老宅新的活力。
At itsoriginal site is atypical traditional“three-entry” courtyard, which is lower inthe front and higher in the back with aconservative style. The oldarchitecture isclosed in itssurrounding, withrelatively poor indoor lighting andsafety hazards hidden in itsnarrow corridor. Aftertransformation, theprimitive simplicity and elegance of thissouthern-style courtyard has beenpreserved—white walls and black tiles are stillthere and water flows beneath a little bridge,while more open space has been added. Moderndesign elementsincluding iron rust plate, simplefloor-to-ceiling glass and uniqueguidance system have endowed this ancientmansion with newvitality.

正门拆除了旧址厚重的土墙，往后退出左右两处空间，往前探出方形盒子般的落地窗，使原本扁平的入口处更富有层次。细木格栅窗替代了封闭阴暗的旧窗，改造后的正立面与旧民居群形成对立统一。
Thick cob walls at the main entrance aredemolished toset aside two spaces on the left and right, while the box-like space formed byfloor-to-ceiling windows extends forward, whichgives the previously flat entrance alayered sense. Fine wood grilled windows have replaced the closed andgloomy old windows, and aunity of opposites isformed between its transformedfront façade and thecluster of oldcivilian houses.

前台入口处整体新浇的混凝土三通盒子，贯通了前台、餐厅及庭院。餐厅由榻榻米、散座和水吧组成，视野通透，高低错落。
The concrete three-way box casted as a whole at the front entranceconnects reception, diner and courtyard. The diner consists of tatami, seats for individual customers and water bar, and has an open and layered view.
