About The Home of Bobo Residential

The Home of Bobo is a residential interior design covering 150 square meters and formed from two former lofts. Most of the walls were removed to make the space bright and open, with a wide view. The first floor connects the living room, the dining room and the kitchen. The second floor holds the private area, where glass keeps a sense of transparency. Twill laminate flooring, varnished boards, marble, patterned carpet and soft fabrics are combined with low saturation colors. The layout also gives room for the objects collected by the owner during travels.

Unique Properties
The original structure consisted of two lofts. Here, the designer removed most of the walls, making the space transparently bright, with a wide view.
The first floor connects the living room, the dining room and the kitchen through an open design that fits the hospitable character of the owner.
The second floor is the private space of the owner. It is not interpreted as a closed area. Instead, the intelligent use of glass creates a sense of transparency throughout the space.

Production Technology
The furniture is attractive and unique. The designer skillfully matched their colors with the background tones, creating an artistic atmosphere. In terms of materials used, they are both contrasting and unified-the twill laminate flooring matches with varnished boards, the freshness of marble neutralizes carpet patterns, while the sofa's fabrics and a peculiarly person-shaped carpet create flexible, soft angles. Green plants by the window bring the touch of nature into the space.
Design Challenge
As the client is a collector and a travel enthusiast, he required that his home could house all interesting objects from trips. This was a challenge faced by the designer. Within the limited space, the designer needed to construct a playful and variable space, which could also meet the needs of placing collections.
Research
The homogenization of commercial real estate forces them to live in the same type of apartments. Faced with this phenomenon, we want to create a space suited to their unique lifestyles, and awaken the love of young people for their own homes.

Inspiration
Nowadays, the young generations work in fast-paced cities, rushing from one place to the other without enthusiasm for life. To make things worse, the homogenization of commercial real estate forces them to live in the same type of apartments. Faced with this phenomenon, we want to create a space suited to their unique lifestyles, and awaken the love of young people for their own homes. Therefore, transparency and change are the keywords of our design.
Project Duration
Timetable: 2018.08-2019.05
Location: Chongqing, China
Operation Flow
The designer removed most of the walls, making the space transparently bright, with a wide view. The walls were designed following block patterns. The designer used surfaces with an array of low saturation colors that evoke a spiritual feeling, portraying spatial creativity and a compelling imagination. The space finds balance through the use of ethereal dark green tones complemented by restrained white tones, thus creating different layers of expression and blank spaces where "less is more".
