'Sky Mansions' Grace The Opposite House, Beijing
Sky Mansions

Composed from iron and wood, “Sky Mansions” presents striking art pieces named “Whereabouts,” “Gone City,” “Hanging Ladder,” “Bend Moon,” “Dazzle City” and “Babel Tower.” Each piece was inspired by combining elements from Chinese classical architecture with modern space construction. The small buildings and houses are on top of one another, depicting a construction method that does not exist in reality. The layer upon layer of buildings and houses fuses illusion and reality together.

“Ding Hao's work is indeed exceptional,” says Mark Passmore, General Manager of The Opposite House. “Babel Tower, with its lofty height of 147 feet, is breathtaking. The details within each art piece are very meticulous.”

The Opposite House has long collaborated with Red Gate gallery to present contemporary art installations, which get updated quarterly.

The Opposite House is located in Taikoo Li Sanlitun–a vibrant new open-plan shopping, dining and entertainment destination developed by Swire Properties. The hotel's 99 guest studios include nine spacious suites and a penthouse duplex with a 240-square-meter (approx. 2,583-square-foot) roof terrace. More than half of all the studios are more than 70 square meters (approx. 754 square feet) and all are strikingly simple, with natural wooden floors and subtle touches of Chinese décor.
