Design Details

Unique Properties
The reception lobby is in a palace style with red and green palette. The luxurious front desk and vermilion table legs light up the space and the grainy hanging painting looks like the stretching mountains; while the pink decorations reflect the elegant life idea.
Inspiration
Inspired by the flowing Lihu Lake, the interior design use a great amount of curves in the ceiling and the spherical installation to highlight the posture of free movement. The diversity of technology and space form together constitute the infiniteness of design.
Research
The perfect match of red and black brings out the beauty and elegance of the space. The decorative wine cabinet next to the red background wall displays the crystal clear wine in water bar area.The black butterfly-shaped high chair and red background wall echo each other in the distance; the white special-shaped flowerpots embellish the romantic atmosphere.
Challenge
The space is mainly white embellished with red of high saturation. The simple and elegant decoration style is full of low-key business style; the red decorative paintings echo the irregular wall hollows, and the transparent platinum decorative showcase at the door and the carpet with gray dots add more playfulness into the space.
Realization and Technology
In the negotiation area, bold and romantic red is used as the main color with pure white interspersed in it. The petal-like negotiation chairs bloom in the space like roses. The black marble floor sets off the intellectual beauty of the space; the irregular circular chandelier on the ceiling wall shows the order in chaos, which is also a beauty of life.
Operation and Interaction
Avoiding glorious and luxury decoration, the sand table area incorporates fresh and playful design concepts through pink and white decorative balloons and three-dimensional mirror disk ornaments. It is a breakthrough in sales center decoration and it has brought the space atmosphere alive while embellishing the space core area.
Project Duration and Location
The project finishes in July 2020 in Wuxi, China.
Specifications
The project has 800 square meters. In the in-depth negotiation area, the space uses orange pink as the main color and it adopts black and white embellishment to show the beautiful and dreamy design concept. The beige sofa with pink pillows echoes the pink orange sofa chair; the marble coffee table enhances the elegant and noble character of the space; and the pink round floor lamp highlights the space feature while adding a girlish sense of space.
