About Lake Sense 別墅室內設計

「湖感」係一個位於中國武漢湖畔、面積515平方米嘅低密度疊墅室內設計項目。約200平方米嘅私家庭院將生活空間延伸至戶外。經精心設計嘅採光井將自然光引入地下層。落地玻璃將室內空間同庭院及湖景連成一體。不鏽鋼、大理石、木飾面同肌理漆構成層次豐富嘅表面。平面佈局借鑒傳統庭院生活方式，既照顧家庭日常起居，亦適合社交聚會。

Production Technology: The project employs stainless steel, brown wood veneer, beige textured paint, marble, and metal to construct layered tactility. Light well engineering introduces vertical daylight penetration to underground spaces. Custom-built storage systems, integrated wine cabinets, aromatherapy systems, and intelligent lighting control enhance spatial efficiency and user experience. Precision detailing ensures material durability and long term structural performance.
Design Challenge: The main challenge was resolving insufficient underground lighting while maintaining luxury and spatial intimacy. Cultural interpretation without superficial replication required careful balance between tradition and modernity. Structural constraints and urban density limited spatial expansion. Through light well systems, glazing strategies, and refined material layering, the project successfully unified nature, culture, and contemporary residential performance.
Research: This project is based on applied spatial-cultural research exploring how Oriental courtyard living can adapt to contemporary urban villas. Through site analysis, daylight simulation, and lifestyle mapping, the design examined lighting efficiency and functional adaptability. Findings show that integrating light wells with cultural spatial strategies significantly improves underground usability and residential comfort, offering a sustainable model for high-end urban housing.
Inspiration: Inspired by Wuhan's dual identity as the cradle of Chu Culture and a modern industrial hub, the design draws from the Yangtze Han river ecology and South Lake's tranquil scenery. The philosophy of "Oriental Seclusion, Future Elegance" merges traditional courtyard living with contemporary lifestyles. Cultural heritage, natural rhythm, and metropolitan vitality collectively informed the spatial narrative and aesthetic direction.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2025 and finished in January 2026 in China.
Operation Flow: The spatial flow transitions naturally from public to private zones. The integrated living dining area supports both daily family use and social gatherings. Light wells bring daylight into the underground level, enhancing comfort. Floor to ceiling windows connect the courtyard and lake views to interior spaces, allowing residents to experience seasonal changes, light variation, and spatial transformation in everyday living.
