Unique Properties

A private music room located on the upper floor illuminates the whole project. For the purpose of guaranteeing the best acoustical environment, the sofa originally in the music room was moved backwards to the hallway.
Before reform, the original shear wall and stairs broke the integrity and liquidity between the dining room and the living room. With the aim of solving the problem, the designer changes the position of the stairs and reforms the shear wall to increase their decoration attributes.

Dimensions & Packaging

Area:656.9 square meter
The curved glass is used as handrail for the molding rotary ladder, and the stair is supported by only a steel bone, therefore the force is concentrated on one point of the floor slab. Metal discs are fired at the bottom of the steel bones to evenly disperse the force in the floor, ensuring the load-bearing safety of the building.
