Immersion

Located in a small community at the seaside, the project is deeply inspired by the richness of the local culture and nature. Viewing from far away, one can see the guesthouse integrated immersively with the surroundings as if it is a part of an organic ecological system. The overall color palette applied on the buildings appears to have a sense of warmth and luminosity. With white and gray, the designer manages to paint out the local identity through the design. Instead of saying that travelers gather together because of the buildings, it is better to say that being here allows them to connect to the environment. The design project is born naturally out of the idea. Entering this place, one can immediately forget about their worries, wandering freely within nature.



Inspired firstly by the local oyster farming industry, the basic color of white represents the oyster shell. With each building and outdoor spaces such as a semi-open corridor, landscape patio, swimming pool, the overall traffic flow is connected and immersed with the environment. Inside the buildings, big floor-to-ceiling windows are applied to decorate the interior with the natural vista. Thus, starting from the visual perspective, the boundary is blurred. From the swimming pool, to the fish farm, then to the seaside nearby, the visual perception of the horizon is broadened. What is more, buildings are arranged with adequate distances, and the interior spaces are spacious. Considering the local summer sunshine hours, designers carefully calculate angles, relative locations, shadows between buildings. Travelers can thus enjoy a different experience of outdoor spaces.



The interior design is minimalistic and neat with a comfortable light color palette. Travelers can enjoy the landscape with friends and family accompanied. Ingeniously applying all kinds of organic textures, the designer creates a multilayered vacation experience. The living room with wooden terrace and deck chair urges one to take a sunbath here with a small nap. The wooden vein of the gray flooring ensures the echo of nature in achromatic color palette.
