Villa Eboracensis est ars interioris aedificii habitationis componendi pro villa quadristrata duplici ad lacus oram in urbe Chongqing sita. Terra montuosa introitum in secundo tabulato collocat, quod cum tertio tabulato coniungitur et spatium vivendi familiae commune praebet. Tabulatum imum in hortum apertum patet, et pars subterranea cubiculum ad oblectationem continet. Parietes inter duas villas contiguas remoti sunt ut interiora coniungerentur. Fenestra caelestis et altum inane apertum lucem diurnam in conclave receptionis clarum inducunt. Materiae naturales texturam et sensum commoditatis addunt.

Behind the Design

Unique Properties: For the design intention of Chongqing and Hong Kong Land Yorkshire lakefront villa, LSD sets out from the geographical characteristics of Chongqing, pursues rational and even groundbreaking design strategies to challenge irrational and impossible, and interprets the exquisite lifestyle that elites enjoy from the balance of space resources to the balance of beautiful life.
Dimensions & Packaging: This is a four-story duplex villa. Considering the mountainous landform of Chongqing, entrance to this villa is made on the second floor, linking to the third floor and serving as a living space for the whole family, the ground floor connects outdoor garden with the richest resources of the building, and the first basement offers room for family happy moments of entertainment.

Production Technology: We demolish walls and open up the two villas, and thus increasingly disorder space is unfolded in front of us. This is an exciting adventure for designers: the box of space is broken yet connects to each other within multiple restrictions as well as due to a combination of materials, colors and blocks.
Design Challenge: Given that only the first floor of this villa linking to the outdoor resources, how to allocate resources reasonably to achieve overall balance has therefor become a central problem before design.
Research: Be it large or small, the size of residence is never a change in spatial dimension for designers, but how to slowly expand space under the change. We focus on the natural texture of materials, and keep restoring the sense of reality of living. After unveiling the superficial decoration, life, temperature, and emotion are still traceable.
Inspiration: Living room is the place where people get engaged in daily activities. Considering its solidity and ambiguity that cannot be extracted separately, designers need to think of its connection with surroundings, achieve balance between spatial functionalism and artistic aesthetics for complicated requirements in reality, and even reinvent aesthetic form and functional rationality. This is the core and challenge of interior design.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2019 and finished in November 2019 in Chongqing
Operation Flow: Straight into the porch is a capacious and bright reception room where we open up the three-story plane perpendicular to the second-story. Opening the skylight, a six-meter duplex villa with great light intensity is formed, and the balance of spatial sunlight is achieved by extending spatial dimension. Standing on the second and the third floor, different perspectives enable us to enjoy the glistening lakescape outside. Above our head we see four seasons come and go, sending sunlight and rain.
