In the early stages of design, the focus was on addressing the interplay between people and architecture, architectural spaces, functional use, and the lived experience of comfort and romance. To achieve this, the structure underwent partial modifications, and the internal spaces were thoughtfully reconfigured. This allowed both shared family areas and private spaces to benefit from optimal light and views.



Nanjing, a city that embodies the essence of Eastern aesthetics while embracing modern sophistication, inspired us to consider: how can we create a "home"that is not only comfortable and convenient but also imbued with a sense of Oriental romanticism?



The design takes inspiration from Nanjing’s profound cultural heritage, natural climate, rhythm of life, and everyday habits, using these as a cohesive thread throughout the space. The forms and hues of autumn willows and the "layered interplay"of undulating landscapes are translated into the space’s colors and textures, serving as an expressive language. Combined with Nanjing’s unique lifestyle, these elements are further "interpreted"into spatial motifs and symbols, creating an environment that reflects the city’s essence.



Through continuous observation and reflection, the unique essence of everyday life, classic architectural forms, breathtaking landscapes, and romantic narratives have provided profound inspiration for the residential design. By weaving these influences together with the language of space, time, light, and aesthetics, the design ultimately embodies a perfect fusion of Eastern elegance and modern vintage sophistication, seamlessly enriching the user's experience of a beautiful life.



The entire space harmoniously integrates diverse functions while balancing privacy and comfort. The sense of layered progression, the harmony of structure and lines, and the resonance created by varying angles and perspectives become the focal points of spatial aesthetics. As one strolls through and transitions between areas, every step evokes the feeling of being immersed in a living, poetic tableau.
