About Moon River Chinese Villa

Moon River Chinese is a Chinese-style villa interior located in Shaoguan, Guangdong. The interior covers 125 square meters and follows the oriental philosophy of learning from nature. Natural elements such as water, the moon, branches and flowers are expressed through simple and restrained forms. Black and white form the main color tone, joined by green and ink tones. Wood and stone place cool and warm materials side by side. The living room and the dining room are connected to extend both function and view. Light and shadow soften the boundaries within the space.

Unique Properties
Shaoguan Aoyuan Moon River Mountain Chinese-style Villa: Elegant and Natural Oriental Residence
The artworks take off the over-prosperous colors, thus the simple and unpretentious form tells the stories of the home. Light and shadow serve as a medium to blur the boundary in space. Mountain rocks, water patterns and tree shadows overlap, where the tranquility is in dynamic and the rhythm is moderate, washed away the fatigue and stress of the urban life, and woke the love in the details.
Dimensions & Packaging
Project Area: 125 square meter
The living room and dining room are connected, and the function and vision are extended, while the emotions and the scenery blend and intersect, so the mind is naturally more open.
