"This space no longer pursues the neatness and newness of the surface, but accepts the traces of time. The bareness, coarseness, and even a slight "dilapidation" are no longer regarded as defects, but become the most powerful expression of texture. It presents a kind of "unfinished" state, which is not repairing or decorating, but restoring the materials to their original form and letting them tell their own stories quietly."

Xianspace + 19 is a retail interior project by design team MK, Zhu, and Danman, built by Hangzhou Yuxin Decoration Design Co., Ltd. The design rejects surface neatness and newness and instead accepts traces of time as defining features. Bareness, coarseness, and slight dilapidation are treated as textures rather than defects. The space intentionally presents an unfinished state that avoids repair or decoration. Materials are restored to their original forms and allowed to exhibit wear and patina. The overall approach prioritizes quiet storytelling through material authenticity over surface perfection.
