Brilliant natural light taps on the saw marks on the solid wood and brings a warm flow through the stone's porosity, revealing a rustic texture. Inconspicuously, light and shadow harmonize the natural appeal and distribute timeless serenity in an embrace of profound Wabi-Sabi philosophy.



The designer adheres to the primary concept of creating a calm residence, thus adopting wood paneling to decorate aluminum window frames and beams, eliminating the visual weight of the structure. Curved shapes on the edge of the ceiling deliver a light and smooth interest. Besides, the sizeable format of beige mineral wall paint shapes a pristine image and contributes a comforting ambiance for the residents as soon as they return.



The wood and stone with rough saw marks and the artisan wall paint, all work in harmony with the balmy engineered hardwood flooring and faux rust door pulls. These elements interact with the residents, inviting them to experience the home through sight and touch. In the daylight, the nifty furnishings and decorations reveal exquisite textures, each one a testament to the homeowner's humble charisma, inspired by their noble profession as a doctor.



Since the homeowner emphasizes family relations, the designer planned an open layout for the public spaces. Without a kitchen door, the public space incorporates the piano placement aside from the living room window and allows the residents to interact with each other in every direction. Furniture at different heights can set areas' boundaries, perform interior layering, and eliminate interference. In addition, a solid wood double door facilitates privacy between the public and personal spaces. Behind the door, a shared study room renders an airy and pleasing spot for the reading-loving families.



The work team fully supports the homeowners in realizing their requirements, building materials, and recycling impact on the environment and ensures they obtain preferable items, reducing changes afterward. Besides, single-piece formed items with less adornments eliminate adhesive applications. In addition, adequate natural light coordinates with dimmable luminous ceilings and energy-sufficient LED lighting fixtures contribute to a healthy and power-saving residence.
