The project is located in He Mu Village, Burqin County, Altay Prefecture, Xinjiang. It is one of the only three remaining Tuva villages in China. The buildings follow the local construction methods and mainly use high-strength, well-insulated and highly weather-resistant Siberian larch logs for construction. The buildings restore the local characteristics and blend in with the environment.

The total floor area of the project is relatively small, divided into 6 rooms and a reception hall. The area of each room is controlled at around 20 square meters. Under the limit of the room area, the design made its first attempt to separate the hotel bathroom and some basic functions, combining them into furniture for factory production and on-site assembly, reducing the difficulty of local construction. And the rich display of furniture can make the space more atmospheric.

The wall surface retains the original one made of pine wood during construction. Through treatment, the wood grain has been deepened, allowing the space to retain its original simplicity.

Considering that there might be insects and ants entering some walls of wooden buildings that come into contact with the external space, the traditional method of sealing the wood between each piece of wood by mixing soil and wood chips was improved during the design, and the gaps were coated with insect-proof and safe paint. The white paint and the wood grain form a very good wall texture.

Many local elements have been incorporated into the space and integrated into the furniture and ornaments. To control the proportion of wood in the room, fabric is used at the head of the bed to make the atmosphere softer.
