The design studio, Han Tang, has a name that sounds tightly linked to the two once flourishing dynasties of China.

The screens inside the studio form a huge Chinese ink landscape painting of continuous mountains. Inspired by the painting of lucky cranes by Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, hollowed-out cranes, which are made of white iron wire, fly around the interior greenery in various positions.
