Ten years apart, a very harmonious couple with different personalities and hobbies found Ma Aiyang again with different needs and preferences and a vision of a new home, give him the villa on the bank of the yu-lin River in Liangjiang New Area, Chongqing! Designers with the needs of the owners, to build a connected ancient and modern, eastern and western space art combination, people and the ideal home of communication with nature.
Push Open the door of the home, the mountains in the distance, as if a picture of the mountains as a dream. The design continues the nature in the building, transforms the owner's hope and the flowing nature, the abstract culture into the concrete building space, puts the new space field force in the dialogue between the building and the nature. The entrance hall, which has a strong sense of ceremony, gains infinite richness with limited space. Using the original beam and column of the building, deepen the sense of spatial composition, horizontal opening and closing, vertical local elevation, the wide horizontal hall shape expands the spatial scale, constructs the field force order. The ceremonial foyer corresponds to the beams and stairs on both sides, forming the left, right, horizontal and vertical lines of communication, emphasizing a sense of symmetry and sequence.
The line of sight extends through the building's composition to reinforce the rhythm of the building, the recesses in the columns and the large wooden finishes, emphasizing the sense of spatial strength of the building itself, the detailed treatment of the cloth-art slate, the art staircase, the warm wood and the beams and columns, strengthen the relationship between architectural levels. The precipitation of details brings the host the ultimate sensory experience, the luxury of Italian style, is not the material blindly flashy, is the spatial scale grasp and the presentation of life style, is the texture of structure and rhythm, it is a lyrical flowing image. White simple steel handrails, the use of the form of side winding, so that the light like a dragon hovering, and thus produce a more modern, abstract expression, by the stairs to create a space of places. The warm wood grain on the back is separated from the vertical light band, which strengthens the sense of the stair form and highlights the beauty of the stair itself, and makes the visual flow rich and varied when walking.
The courtyard is the Chinese traditional ideal living pattern and the life style, is the culture, the etiquette, the society and the natural fusion. The reconstruction of the basement is the colorful chapter of this case. Following the original structure, the garden will be sunk to provide ventilation and lighting for the basement. Two courtyards with natural daylighting are constructed, which make their tonality unified and their sight lines connected, thus expanding the volume of the basement. Out of the window, the courtyard, tree shadows whirling, the atmosphere quiet. The courtyard that introduces the view into the room, causes the indoor gas field and the courtyard to form the whole, through the large scope glass division and outline, the entire space maintains the harmony, causes the broad line of sight and the spiritual gas field to communicate, the owner of the house can fully enjoy the scenery between the venues. The outer courtyard supports the free and flexible public activity area, creating a multi-dimensional space with interactive communication, natural experience and artistic feeling. Combined with the main structure of the building, the living space of the elderly and guests is arranged on one side of the courtyard to form a quadrangle, a cloister is built outside, a small garden world is constructed, pomegranate trees with many children and many blessings are planted, and rain is heard in the cornice, looking up at the sky is the old man's favorite place.

A maple tree is planted on the other side of the courtyard. Design here, the world in the physical space dimension and the dimension of time, but also the existence of the spiritual dimension, life with the four seasons, so that the spirit back to nature, breathing, breathing, vegetation. Between the artificial and the natural fusion, emphasizes the architectural spirit, expresses the host interest. The explorative construction courtyard, the light and shadow world, the nature and the human, the spirit seeks the long-term homecoming.
If the courtyard structure of the courtyard is the philosophy of heaven and man, drinking tea is the Chinese philosophy of life. And the places that carry this activity are usually endowed with rich spiritual connotation. The Teahouse, providing the hostess with the leisure and tranquility of tea, interprets the philosophy of Oriental culture. Teahouse and chess and card room around the courtyard, focus function, open space, private enclosure, the sun into the landscape can be appreciated, is the hostess favorite. The hostess loves both fashion and simplicity, and traditional Chinese calligraphy and painting and tea culture. The designer adds the Chinese culture symbol in the modern simple teahouse space, adds the Oriental primitive interest, causes the teahouse space and the whole Italian simple space dissimilation fusion. Paintings, antiques, collections, teas and teacups, furniture fully display their elegance, reproducing the elegance of traditional aesthetics. Explore the contemporary context of traditional oriental cultural expression, light Chinese symbols to replace the pure Chinese style, space exquisite details of technology, shape the culture of architecture and life.
To the owner's beloved wood screen collection as a decorative visual center, and white space, remove the redundant visual focus, and the Italian minimalist leather sofa set off each other. The use of beam top and the surrounding symmetrical decorative columns, architectural symbols into the interior, artistic conception far away. Italian minimalist details of the treatment, the field to reduce the repeated carved beams, more pure texture, Chinese complexity and Italian minimalism under the collision of Harmony, all hidden in the heart. The warm leather furniture, the natural stone skin, the metope natural texture lacquer as well as some surface texture simple element, creates the indoor natural true beauty, creates the tranquil relaxed and the soothing feeling, make the basement a place of inner peace. With the integration of the natural and the humanities, the landscape and the ancient and modern, the oriental tradition and the italian-style symbol, the rich spatial sequence is formed through the overall combination of the two courtyards, the interior space forms a dialogue with the natural landscape in the courtyard.
The owner's collection of a pair of Chinese totem woodcarvings planted on both sides of the stairs, and the simple space to form a visual contrast. Hand-made cane-weaving art installation, Chinese carving, old objects and space field clever integration. For the hostess love between the establishment of an organic ideal of tea culture, multi-cultural collision, law is not law, self-pattern. The design entrusts the Space Art Beauty and the architecture beauty, the space satisfies the user's desire, should open as far as possible, to keep simple, picks off the superfluous line, preserves the original esthetics, the architectural abstract implication and the design innovation can embody.
