从地生长   以海滋养

Growing from the earth and nourished by the sea

这座建筑前身是百年茶厂。释外二字立于门边，细窄的拱门窥探得岁月的缩影。于此恍惚间，仍能嗅到海丝浪花泛起的缕缕茶香，穿行廊道至三层便得时间轴线之外的天地。伴随着阵阵江海浪，释外以茶文化为核心的生活空间悄然布局，造就一方释然世外之境。

Among the foliage stands an old red-brick building, once a century-old tea factory. The inscription "Shi Wai" (Release the Exterior) beside the narrow arched door offers a glimpse into the past. Here, the scent of tea wafts from the sea, and ascending to the third floor reveals a timeless realm centered on tea culture. With the river's waves as accompaniment, this serene space offers a respite from the world.

入门壁灯微明，唤起人们对海的眷恋。红色旧瓦片织筑成的船舱承载了远洋的记忆，风卷纱幔，雾气在海面升起。前厅作为文创区，在此，人们鉴茶观艺升起雅兴。船尾的东方茶榻将“饮罢方舟去，茶烟袅细香”的情趣纳入其中。时空交错，仿佛闻得那江边码头的琴音穿越千年，清越悠远，随着茶香吐纳的韵律，沉浸其中。

The entrance's dim wall lamp evokes a deep sea longing. The boat cabin, crafted from aged red tiles, holds memories of sea voyages. Curtains flutter in the breeze, and sea mist rises. The front hall, a cultural hub, showcases tea appreciation and the art of tea-making, fostering elegance. The east tea bed at the stern embodies the charm of boating while drinking tea, exhaling its delicate aroma. Time and space merge, as ancient melodies from the riverside pier echo through the ages, clear and ethereal. Immersed in the tea's rhythm, one is transported to a different realm.

A deep blue hue graces the bar counter, daylight dancing in shimmers on its brickwork. The wooden countertop welcomes, offering comfort to all who gather. Overhead, canvas screens display archived images of the river's bustling past, bridging the gap between then and now, revealing the city's essence and the ongoing tales of today.

蓝是海的情绪，帆是风的形状。所有世俗心事在此放下，无需背上行囊。扬帆航行，远离城市的喧哗与物欲。帆下，西洋酒漂洋而来，创意茶饮体恤茶文化年轻化。无论是大洋彼岸的浪漫，亦或是东方禅意，它们调酿起生活、艺术与人文的精粹，成为疗愈身心的玉露。

Blue captures the sea's essence, while the sail mirrors the wind's form. Here, worries fade, and the urge to flee the city's noise and materialism subsides. Beneath the sails, western wines mingle with innovative tea drinks, embodying tea culture's youthfulness. A blend of oceanic romance and Eastern Zen, they distill life, art, and humanity's essence, soothing the soul and body.

夜幕低垂，纸灯的光线柔和近人，似海面的灯塔、家人的等候，温婉地倾诉着期盼，指引归家的方向。今后，释然心安便伴着烟火气随餐入胃，味与情被层层品尝，直抵心灵。

With night's descent, paper lanterns emit a warm glow, like a beacon on the sea or a loved one's embrace. They whisper expectations, guiding us home. Henceforth, the serenity of letting go will accompany mealtime, as flavors and emotions are savored, deeply penetrating our hearts.

The dining area's louvered shutters transform the surrounding scenery into a painting, each window offering a unique perspective filled with intrigue. It's like a gallery of Fuzhou, with each pane a canvas awaiting quiet appreciation.

有一处窗景更为妙，如长卷般展开，一端榕树绿意逼人一端大桥上车水马龙。自然与人文，历史与今朝，内与外，在茶室交相辉映。

A particularly enchanting window view unfolds like a scroll, displaying the verdant banyan trees and the bustling bridge with its constant traffic. In this tea room, nature and humanity, history and the present, blend harmoniously.
