As people’s life picture gradually becomes clearer, residential space serves as a huge foundation for carrying life. How to build a home with self-property and temperament through design has become one of the important topics for designers.

The simpler it is, the more it can carry. All designs are kept simple and appropriately left blank, making it easier to see the true self and get closer to the original appearance of life.

The fundamental attributes of residential space are not to pursue visually stimulating modeling display and follow established style labels, but to put people as the protagonists. On the basis of satisfying functions, through design guidance, the infinite power of space can be inspired to carry life, and explore oneself and boundaries in a comfortable and relaxing field.

The horizontally long living room is adapted to local conditions. The full floor-to-ceiling glass windows provide a direct view, breaking the boundaries between inside and outside, and inadvertently bringing outdoor natural light and mountains of green into the room. Wherever you look, you can see the magnificent natural scenery. In the subtle and fully open space atmosphere, the noise and noise from the outside world slowly metabolize and dissipate until they disappear.

Fully open free space, orderly opening and closing, home furnishings combined with low-key and bright modern elements. The color combination of black and white and gray is just right. The carefully designed furniture placement forms a natural boundary division, which is parallel to the linear system lamps on the ceiling. It deepens the sense of visual extension and flow, and creates a deep, quiet, light and transparent spatial tone.

Standing at thirty, what you see is what you don’t have, and the principle is addition. Pursue the richness and variety of life, but wash away the brilliance and leave only your true self. When you are forty, you are not confused. What you see is what you have, and the principle of subtraction is used. The higher realm of life is having the freedom of choice.

As night falls, the indoor lighting turns on the precisely set night mode, and the soft warm light makes people's consciousness and spirit slowly relax and become calm, follow their inner thoughts, and roam in their own spiritual territory.

From the public area to the private resting areas at both ends, the rhythm and order of scene transitions quietly change. The small private space in front of the bedroom can be opened or closed, suitable for one person to read quietly or watch his favorite movie alone, and immerse himself in the private time of self-exploration.

The two bedroom suites are located at both ends of the living room, and are equipped with independent bathrooms. The need for privacy is fully considered, and family members do not interfere with each other. The overall dynamic and static layout is full of ingenuity, which invisibly enhances the original advantages of the space. There is no need to pile up too many decorative objects and focal points. The overall vision is mainly black and white plain colors at different levels. The infinite influx of natural light and natural scenery is the best work of art. When you look up, you will see a beautiful landscape painting.

The rhythm has gradually calmed down. This is your own space. You can let go of the high-speed tension, concentrate, find inner peace, and return to your true nature.

The latest Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs (Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs) has been expanded to eight levels, including cognitive, aesthetic and transcendent needs. When people's material life is greatly satisfied and they gradually pursue higher-level spiritual needs, how to embody this in space and even lead a way of living and enjoying a lifestyle beyond oneself will test the designer's ability to do subtractive design.

A small private living room, simple and natural techniques are used throughout, restrained and injecting some personal favorite blue series furniture with low saturation and cold tones, and the mood of the space shows harmony and comfort.

The white space seems to be non-functional, but in fact it creates a sense of balance. In the long corridor leading to the master bedroom, a set of black desks are set up, naturally forming a semi-partition buffer scene. The view extends outward along with the glass windows, and the vitality of natural beauty is everywhere.

Enjoying life has nothing to do with luxury. The subtle design mechanism of outward opening and natural white space gives the highly personal residential space a unique context and soul. The space and people blend with each other, and the innovation and pursuit of lifestyle seem to have never stopped.
