Symphony of Lights

In order to create a minimalist modern style that the owner prefers, the designers tried to interpret the design of the shrine with a novel expression so as to get cast off the traditional impression of shrines being high-chromatic plastic products. In terms of color application, the designers approached from the perspective of traditional Chinese color psychology. Symphony of Lights is a residential design project within a building. The refined linear layers and the shades of chromatics present a unique beauty along with the calm and spiritual shrine. The designers ingeniously guide all kinds of light and interweave the changes of light and shadow in the space with the multi-colored ceiling design that enriches the texture of the space. The lowered central TV wall creates a versatile study, and paired with the custom-made cabinet made of woodwork and iron pieces, they give the public areas a wide range of possibilities. The majestic Buddha statue sitting in the back of the living room and the black and white colors are key elements in this soothing covert residence. The refined layers of lines and the intuitive impression of special materials help fuse the ever-changing light and shadow both from the outside and inside, presenting the consistently extraordinary design. The special lowered TV wall in the center links the multi-color design together, opening up a visual imagination and also partitioning the public areas. In the early stages of this project, a lot of thought was put into the design of the shrine's appearance and its aesthetic connection with other spaces. How to combine the function of the shrine with a modern appearance was a difficult problem. The designers replaced the traditional altar with suspended shelves and storage cabinets on both sides, and embedded lights on top instead of the traditional red lamps, and installed air exhaust designs to guide the flow of smoke rising from incense.
