This project combines LAMINAM ceramic slabs and Mia Mia yellow marble for exceptional durability and refined textures, creating an elegant atmosphere. Shadow wood adds warmth and depth, while leather elements offer a soft, tactile quality that complements the space's sophisticated yet inviting feel. The thoughtful integration of these high-quality materials ensures both lasting appeal and a luxurious, comfortable living experience.
Balancing Openness and Privacy: The design features expansive floor-to-ceiling windows and an open layout to enhance spatial transparency, while strategically guiding sightlines to bring the river view into every major area. Clever partitions and zoning ensure privacy in areas like bedrooms and bathrooms, addressing the challenges of open-plan designs.
The project started in September 2023 in Wenzhou and finished in January 2024 in Wenzhou
This design creates a spacious, private living environment by blending natural light with a smart layout. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows seamlessly integrate river views and sunlight. The open-plan dining and kitchen encourage family interaction, while private bedrooms offer tranquility. Local Wenzhou culture is woven into the design, fostering a strong cultural connection alongside modern comfort. This space meets daily needs while deepening connections with nature, family, and culture.
By breaking traditional layouts and adopting a freer, more relaxed design, the project creates a trendy, youthful living environment. This design enhances both the living quality and market competitiveness. Combining the Ou River's natural beauty with modern design attracts high-end clients, boosts brand value, and strengthens market recognition. The use of innovative, sustainable materials aligns with the growing demand for green living, further elevating the project's appeal.
The inspiration for this project comes from the fusion of nature and leisurely living, aiming to create a unique family space that offers both a 270 degrees river view and a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere. By incorporating elements of a café into the home design, it provides a space ideal for gatherings, socializing, and relaxation—such as enjoying afternoon tea or swinging at home—infusing daily life with creativity and vitality.
