PROJECT
DESCRIPTION
I am a spatial designer, carrying a love for Song style aesthetics and modern light luxury concepts, to create this uniquely charming interior space for trade. In terms of spatial layout, I cleverly incorporated the transparency and symmetry of the space into the design of public spaces through borrowing and penetration. You will find that through large areas of glass doors and windows, the indoor and outdoor courtyards are cleverly connected, allowing natural light and outdoor scenery to easily blend into the interior, creating a spacious and bright atmosphere. In terms of furniture placement, it follows the symmetrical aesthetics of Song style. For example, the sofa combination in the living room is arranged symmetrically on both sides with the central coffee table as the axis. This design not only gives a sense of harmony and stability visually, but also allows residents to feel the beauty of order.
In terms of color matching, we choose steady neutral colors as the main tone, with beige, light brown, and dark brown colors filling the entire space. These colors seem to convey the restrained and atmospheric style of Song Dynasty, laying a warm and comfortable foundation for the space. We cleverly use bright colors as embellishments in some key areas. For example, the red background wall of the wine cellar is like a pearl in the space, instantly attracting attention and forming a sharp contrast with the overall calm main color tone, enhancing the sense of hierarchy and delicacy of the space.
In the selection of materials, we considered the geographical environment and climate of the villa location, and chose natural materials to overcome the impact of the local climate. Wood and stone are my favorites. Do the natural textures and warm textures displayed by the wooden wall panels and furniture make you feel the Song style's reverence for nature? The marble on the ground, with its unique texture and charming luster, injects a sense of luxury into the space. At the same time, I will also incorporate some metal elements perfectly, such as the metal frames of lamps and the metal decorations on furniture. These metal elements have been finely processed to showcase the modern light luxury texture and blend perfectly with natural materials.
In terms of soft furnishings, carefully designed furniture shapes are simple yet elegant, blending the framework structure of Song style furniture with modern minimalist lines. The sofa not only has a beautiful appearance, but also places great emphasis on comfort, and the choice of fabric highlights a low-key luxury style. The tables and chairs are mainly made of wood, showcasing natural texture and exquisite craftsmanship.
Our team puts a lot of effort into the selection of decorations and artworks. The landscape painting on the background wall of the living room showcases the charm of traditional Chinese painting art and adds a cultural heritage to the space. The tea sets and decorations in the tea room, as well as the wine utensils and bottle displays in the wine cellar, all reflect my pursuit of a high-quality life. In addition, I cleverly arranged some sculptures and green plants, which are like elves in the space, bringing artistic atmosphere and natural vitality to the space. The sculptures at the entrance and the green plants throughout the interior not only serve a decorative purpose, but also reflect the harmonious coexistence of nature and culture.
Lighting is a master at creating an atmosphere, mainly using soft indirect lighting. The combination of ceiling light strips, wall lamps, floor lamps, etc. creates a warm and peaceful atmosphere, avoiding discomfort caused by direct sunlight and making the entire space more comfortable and relaxing. In some key areas, such as display cabinets and art placement areas, I will use spotlights or track lights for focused lighting, highlighting the details and beauty of the displayed items, enhancing the artistic atmosphere and delicacy of the space.
This is the Song style light luxury interior space that I have designed, hoping that everyone who enters this space can feel the unique charm brought by the perfect integration of traditional culture and modern life.
