Project Overview
This is a single-storey residential planning with an actual area of just over 100m2. Due to the need to travel overseas for work often for the male and the female owners, they especially prefer classical vocabularies such as European chateaus or English country villages, and thus this was used as the leisurable main vision for the entire project to relieve stress and create a scenario like a private vacation.

Project Brief
Considering the simplicity in the household members, with only the young couple and pet, therefore the need for independent rooms is decreased respectively; thereby the planning has optimized the activity space and the transitioning depth of fields for the public zone.
Project Need
The living room is located at the center of the entire residence, connecting with the foyer and the dining room. The living room selected coarse cultured stone to build the main wall, which is enclosed by a dark wood frame, high cabinet and suspended low TV table, thereby enlarging the width of the main wall, providing a warm Southern France chateau sentiment.
Design Challenge
There is no deliberate partition for the foyer roughly at the middle, but rather ingeniously combined the glass screen shield, display stand, suspended glass shelf, tea bar, wine-tasting area, and dining room into an integrated multi-functional design, with classic cultured stone as the unique guest-welcoming end view on the one hand, while also adequately separating the interior from the exterior for the precious space while satisfying the user’s expectations towards the sense of ceremony in life, thereby obtaining optimized substantial benefits.
Sustainability
The two sides of the dining area applied double barn doors and peacock blue color block to gradually conduct the integration of several room doors while accentuating the sentimental highlight. The study room behind the sofa is the focus of the entire residential planning; the looks with mid-height windows and glass grid door allows keeping the openness of the vision as well as lights and shadows; the longitudinal space is divided into different units including the two wings with storable beds, the central reading area and the stylish grid cabinet. The flooring of the study room used retro hexagonal tiles, which correspond to elements such as the vintage wooden cabinet doors, and the orange color block in the corner, demonstrating characteristic self-evident exotic sentiment with vitality.
