- The most difficult part in this design was transforming the unite layout whose original walls were mostly non-removable. Undoubtedly, the excessively square layout rendered the unit dull and lifeless. The small kitchen and dining room side by side seriously impaired the view and the overall style. By transforming the corridors, adding cupboards, and uniformly veneering with natural gray marble, the designers have turned the unit into a space with a harmonious style and a richersense of layer.
- Research
- Facing the increasing daily necessities, home decoration for long-term living tends to be caught in a dilemma of sacrificing the design style or storage space. In the project design, the designers drew on rich experience to balance the spaciousness and simplicity with the storage and furnishings by integrating the space and using cupboards as partitions, thereby providing a pure and minimal life experience for dwellers in thelong run.
- Inspiration
- Although the perception of space and colors varies according to different people, the black and white background often provides a strong sense of space. Inspired by the overlapped space of Chinese gardens, the project is designed in a modern approach. Also, a black and white background is adopted to enhance spaciousness, with a touch of high-saturation colors, so as to create vitality while retaining well-balancedbeauty.
- Project Duration
- The project was launched in Jinan, China, in May 2021.
The preliminary work was completed in September 2021.
The interiordecoration was completed and the project was delivered to the owners in November 2021. - Operation Flow
- The unit layout was overly square, whose functional areas were too simple and inflexible. As a result, each space was independent without reasonable circulation. After the redesign, the door-free design and the integrated public areas significantly reduce the barriers to the vision, thus broadening the overall view and optimizing the circulation. Besides, the configuration of ample cupboards facilitates the sorting and storage of various items to keep the house tidy.
