Project Overview
A villa is not only a living space but also a place where people can relax and find inner peace. The design of this 600m ² villa emphasizes the fusion of natural elements and modern minimalist style. In terms of spatial layout, through the guidance of light and sight, every corner is filled with the artistic atmosphere of life. We have devoted a lot of effort to every detail, and through meticulous design and clever layout, the space not only meets functional requirements but also highlights the unique tone of residents' lives. By combining micro cement and wooden materials, a harmonious and peaceful atmosphere is created, introducing natural light into the interior and allowing light and shadow to jump on various materials, making the entire space bright and transparent. The softness of soft furnishings contrasts with the toughness of microcement, increasing the comfort and layering of the space. The extensive use of textured materials such as micro cement and the contrast of details give the home a different style.

Project Brief
This villa is a sanctuary where residents can relax and find inner peace, blending natural elements with modern minimalist style. The design guides light and sight to fill every corner with an artistic ambiance, transforming everyday life into an art form.
By combining micro-cement and wood, the villa creates a harmonious atmosphere with natural light enhancing the space's brightness and transparency. The soft furnishings contrast with the toughness of micro-cement, adding comfort and depth. Textured materials and detailed contrasts give the home a distinct style.
Emphasizing environmental protection and sustainability, the villa uses micro-cement, stainless steel cabinets, and a water recycling system. Stainless steel and micro-cement are recyclable, reducing resource waste and indoor pollution. The water recycling system improves water utilization and reduces environmental pressure, showcasing how design can combine modern living with ecological responsibility.
Project Need
Design is not only an expression of art but also a shaper of lifestyles. Design influences public aesthetics and affects people's specific choices at particular times and places. Through the collision of diverse materials—cool and warm tones, hard and soft textures, delicate and rugged elements—we create astonishing emotional experiences for those inhabiting the space. Good design emphasizes environmental protection and sustainability, using extensive micro-cement, stainless steel cabinets, wardrobes, and a water recycling system throughout the entire space. Stainless steel itself is recyclable, meaning that when the cabinets reach the end of their lifespan, they can be recycled, reducing the consumption and waste of natural resources. Micro-cement has extremely low VOC content. The VOC content of micro-cement is far below the national standard, which means that using micro-cement almost does not bring additional pollution to the indoor environment. As an inorganic material, micro-cement waste can be recycled, reducing resource waste and environmental pollution. Meanwhile, we use stainless steel cabinets and wardrobes for customization. Stainless steel is recyclable, meaning that when the cabinets and wardrobes reach the end of their lifespan, they can be recycled, reducing the consumption and waste of natural resources. The use of a water recycling system recycles and reuses water resources, greatly improving water utilization. Through internal filtration, disinfection, and other equipment, the water recycling system can effectively reduce the discharge of organic matter and nutrients, alleviating environmental pressure on surrounding water bodies. Simultaneously, the microorganisms in the system can decompose some organic waste, reducing environmental pollution.
Design Challenge
At the beginning of the project, we encountered some challenges. Due to local environmental factors and cultural traditions, a significant amount of time was invested in four key areas: communicating detailed requirements with the residents, selecting materials, ensuring material supply and compatibility, and positioning according to Feng Shui principles. However, through efficient collaboration with the residents, we successfully addressed these four areas, and the project was ultimately completed perfectly.
Sustainability
We place great emphasis on sustainability and environmental friendliness in our designs. We approach projects from multiple angles, including preliminary project layout planning, new design techniques, innovative materials, the latest construction methods, and high-quality, high-standard construction details. By using micro-cement, stainless steel, and a water recycling system, we greatly enhance environmental sustainability. This approach meets the residents' needs while minimizing the consumption of natural resources and reducing negative environmental impacts.
In our designs, we also comprehensively consider the entire product lifecycle. We focus not only on the construction phase but also on the sustainability of the product during its operation and demolition stages. We consider factors such as durability, ease of maintenance, and recyclability to ensure that the product minimizes its environmental impact throughout its lifecycle.
Additionally, controlling costs is crucial in sustainable design. Through meticulous construction techniques, we aim to complete projects in one go, reducing costs and making sustainable design more feasible.
