About Sandy Beach Residential House

Sandy Beach is the interior design of a beach villa in Qingdao, China. The home covers 450 square meters across two floors and a basement, and serves a family of four as a second residence for vacation and leisure. Functional areas are kept open rather than strictly divided, which creates a large and relaxed spatial scale. The main materials are wood flooring, slate and latex paint. Terrazzo brick in black with white particles is laid on the lower level. Large French windows bring daylight into the basement.

Design Challenge
Starting at level -1, the rules are being broken. The floor is paved terrazzo brick, with black as the bottom, dotted with snowflake like white particles, coupled with matte texture, highlights a relaxed and lively atmosphere, the "free" keynote will take root in every corner.
Research
Home is the best place of mind and body, and the second place is even more so. It should meet the owners' "ego" appeal and private demand to a greater extent, with a comfortable state of life, is the holiday home should have the feeling.
Inspiration
The material that furniture pledges and modelling also are happening inadvertently with the sea contact. Shell sofas, stone coffee tables and wall hangings in the living room create a fantastic illusion of drifting on an island. The wooden table is like a boat floating on the vast sea, with a white cloud overhead, which once again deepens this image.
Project Duration
The project started in April 2021 in Qingdao and finished in August 2022 in Qingdao.
Operation Flow
The French window of large area, let the relation of light and basement "mend fences". Just put some green plants or transparent acrylic furniture in the room, they can quickly become a piece, linked out of broad and bright space scale, forming a comfortable and comfortable scene.
