Traditional Chinese elements are combined with modern materials, careful colors and detailed decoration to create a balanced and elegant modern oriental living space. The design keeps the original ceiling heights and the open spacing of the building. The open kitchen shares the same view as the living room and the outdoor courtyard, so family interaction becomes closer. In the basement, wood, metal, leather and marble highlight lines, and the wide use of wood recalls Chinese antique aesthetics.

- Project Duration
- The project is completed in October 2018, in Jiaxing, Zhejiang, China.

- Up to the third floor, the design emphasizes the match between modern materials and traditional elements. There once were two terraces, in which one is kept and another is changed into a semi-open study room. A new oriental space is thus built by the decoration of furniture of Ming and Qing style, including hanging screen, calligraphy and paintings, antique and bonsai.
