The Little Dimple an artist's studio

Step into the small wine cellar and enter a world full of art. Formerly a 1940s dock worker dormitory, it was also the home where the artist grew up with his grandparents. After the artist's personal reconstruction, traces of the past and unique old objects were preserved. Grinding stones, old windows, and red bricks are cleverly integrated into the modern decoration style, creating a beauty that is close to life. Every detail is an expression of love for life. The living room walls of the wine cellar are filled with paintings, each a masterpiece of the artist's heart, with unique stories waiting for you to discover; the kitchen is equipped with modern cooking utensils and tableware, where you can play music and make your favorite food; the private bedroom is equipped with comfortable and soft pillows and mattresses for a cloud-like sleep. The wine cellar is a living space that allows you to slow down, a perfect combination of art and life. Located in a convenient neighborhood, but quiet and elegant. Appreciate unique art creations in a stylish and textured space, and give life more creativity and inspiration. We look forward to giving you a special and unforgettable life experience. If you want to escape the hassle of everyday life and carefully taste the flavor of life, Xiaojiuwo will be a great choice ~
