Production Technology
To merge the artistic essence of landscapes with contemporary living and enhance residents' emotional connections to nature, the designer incorporates renowned traditional Chinese paintings along with refined materials, including pressure-treated art glass, translucent stone, shadow wood veneer, and stainless steel.
Design Challenge
The artistic screen cabinet is crafted from carefully selected materials, intricately carved to evoke the hazy beauty of mountains and water. It is paired with renowned landscape paintings and features a dynamic interplay of length, width, and height, along with curved, latex-painted columns suspended from the ceiling, creating rich layering and a profound artistic concept.
Research
The walls of the living room and dining room are made of Roman ivory white travertine. This natural stone adds texture and depth to the space, maintaining brightness while also creating a warm and elegant visual effect.
Inspiration
This project is located in Shekou, Nanshan, Shenzhen, at the center of Investment Promotion Taizi Bay, along southern China scenic coastline. The design embodies the concept of Zhuangzi A Happy Excursion, integrating elements of literature, poetry, philosophy, and theology from Chinese civilization into the living environment. This approach fosters a harmonious relationship between architecture and the ocean, creating an aesthetically appealing setting.
Project Duration
The project was finalized in Shenzhen, China in April, 2023
Operation Flow
These components, combined with precise craftsmanship, reveal the ethereal beauty of the landscape. The kitchen showcases slate gray walls, polished and expertly cut to create smooth, wavy surfaces, providing a natural texture and an elegant sense of movement as light interacts with the design.
