Spatial Symbols: An Analysis of Cultural Characteristics of Interior Furnishings in Huizhou Residential Houses
* Author to whom correspondence should be addressed.
Abstract
The interior furnishings of Huizhou residential houses embody their own ideological connotations and cultural metaphors. They utilize order, symbols, and imagery to express spiritual concepts and value orientations. This paper analyzes the cultural characteristics of interior furnishings in Huizhou residential houses from the perspectives of spatial relationships, the fractal isomorphism of the Heaven-Man structure, the transformation of the scholar-merchant fusion style, the symbolization of Neo-Confucianism, and the aesthetic pursuit of the literati, elucidating the intrinsic logic of Huizhou interior furnishings based on the Tianren concept and the Neo-Confucianism of Cheng-Zhu school.
