In terms of design, design concept is a diverse thinking mode that serves as a language of expression. From the perspective of Eastern aesthetics, the pursuit of exquisite living and the creation of extraordinary spatial implications are the core values.

Balance the sense of nature in the space and inadvertently lead your eyes to the subject. As the director of space, it is important to manage the relationships between "people", "objects", and "scenery". By removing unnecessary walls and creating a more open and accessible kitchen, the space is given a sense of liveliness and dynamic energy, promoting interaction and communication among family members, endowing the living space more fluid and lively. Returning to simplicity and embracing tradition, a new aesthetic transformation has emerged in modern times.

A strong Eastern ambiance pervades the space, creating a peaceful and elegant atmosphere. The collision of new and old, Western and traditional Chinese design elements in soft furnishings constantly seeks a balance between classic and modern styles. Antique objects frozen in time evoke childhood memories and bring a warmth and quiet strength to the space. There are no deliberate traces of carving, only a rustic and natural charm that exudes an elegant aesthetic, felt throughout the space. Interlacing with Western design elements, a unique texture is evident throughout the space.

Authenticity, simplicity, and naturalness have created imperfect yet delightful surprises. Rough red brick decorations adorn the entryway and bathroom walls, with handmade fired bricks that are each one-of-a-kind. There are no filler material used, hence, retaining as much of the original state of the materials as possible, and showcasing the beauty in imperfection. Small mosaic tiles adorn the door and archway, showcasing a stunning interpretation of an everyday material. Subtle natural elements come together to create a space that resembles a work of art.
