About The Entry
The product series reinterprets traditional Chinese aesthetics from a contemporary lens, weaving motifs of “bamboo” and “landscape painting” into the furniture design. Through extending horizontal and vertical lines, light tones, and wood-grain finishes, it presents a retro Oriental aesthetic rooted in traditional culture yet attuned to contemporary aesthetics.
The series showcases the elegance of Eastern aesthetics through a light and refined design approach. The cabinet doors are finished with white PVC film with flowing horizontal wave patterns that lend the space a soft, layered character. The artistic back panels are created using UV printing and feature two patterns: Qingsha Man and Yueyong Cangshan. The first creates a misty landscape by layering cascading drizzle-like curtains over mountains, evoking a hazy, poetic atmosphere. The second uses intersecting dots and lines to outline mountain silhouettes, forming repeating geometric patterns that can be freely cut, enhancing the artistic depth of the space. In terms of structural details, the series features a symmetrical double-door layout accented with horizontal decorative strips, introducing visual variations within an ordered layout. The handles, inspired by bamboo joints, are refined into polygonal linear forms and paired with a dual-hole base, combining aesthetic appeal with practical functionality.
Each functional area is designed with its own logic. In the living and dining room, suspended cabinets, trapezoid wainscot, and lotus leaf green lacquered shelves create an open and refined display area. In the dining area, the sideboard integrates worktops and water purifiers, addressing practical, everyday living needs. The display cabinet breaks from the conventional full-height door design. Its staggered LED-lit shelves, wood-toned cylindrical dividers, and metal-core panels create a multi-layered composition that combines the elegance of wainscot with practical storage functionality. The bedroom door and walk-in closet feature wood-toned top and bottom frames with a large white central panel, creating a youthful retro atmosphere.
