About Past Precious Times Private Homes
Past Precious Times is an interior design for a private home of 740 square meters. The layout keeps the basic structure of a traditional residence and shortens the distance between people and the indoor setting. Functional areas are joined without clear borders, so the space for shared activity is extended. Large floor-to-ceiling windows on the sunlit facade bring in natural light. Light wood and stone surfaces, carpets, sofas and soft chairs in calm colors reduce visual weight. Suspended lamps and a chandelier define the activity area.

Design Details
- Unique Properties
- In terms of space structure and layout, the designer does not deliberately break the basic construction of traditional residence. The design starts from narrowing the interaction distance between people and indoor situations, extends the space for interpersonal activities, and naturally connects the scenes of each functional area through unbounded processing.
- Inspiration
- Integrate the appropriate proportion between the entity and the empty area, and insert the suspended standing lamp, chandelier, and the TV screen hanging around it to enhance the novel design sense of the device in the activity space, so that people can focus their eyes, and also present a simple, appropriate, unobstructed and soft visual effect.
- Research
- The rhythm of quiet life is sublimated in the gentle and relaxed free space, creating a comfortable, calm, and non-flashy living experience. The layout of opening and closing reduces the distinct sense of distance, the poetic style endows a more unique philosophy of life, and also makes the depth of light and the simplicity of things overlap into fun, stimulating the purest desire of the heart.
- Challenge
- The range of the light and shadow intertwined halo is extended, which makes more details of the space maintain a unified golden color under the light, and strengthen the ancient simplicity that triggers the connection between life and emotion. The bright and dark space scenery is more clear because of the reflection and imaging of light and plain materials. The bright and warm atmosphere brings people the healing experience of getting rid of the noise.
- Realization and Technology
- The color of the log and stone decorative surface is light and gentle, and the carpets, sofas and soft chairs in simple and elegant colors remove the sense of heaviness. The residence is clean and concise, and the space texture is shaped as new. With the help of sufficient light sources, the space forms a dynamic sense, bringing tranquility into the room, enabling people to complete the natural transition of emotional perception when entering the room from the outside.
- Operation and Interaction
- The indoor facade facing the sun uses large area of transparent floor-to-ceiling windows to fully introduce the outdoor natural light. The concise elements reduce the blocking of the light beam, and improve the permeability of the light from the outside to the inside.
