The hostess is chipper, enjoys the hustle and bustle of life, also fond of painting. Based on the client’s characteristic, the designer integrates her paintings into every scene of the house, shaping each space with various colors, clear themes and noble beliefs.
You can feel strong religious atmosphere at the time of entering. The entire space is covered with cross-shaped glass tiles. The parting planes of Mondrian’s colour block bring people clean and agile feelings, matching the hostess’s personality. The sliding glass door uses hand-painted coloured glass same as the western churches, and the dotted hand-painted lines convey the love for belief and art, which are beautiful and delightful. The blue block of the nearby curtains extends to the wall, creating a very interesting continuation for the entire space. The highly saturated colors and the geometric simplicity of the entire space contrast with each other, showing a confident and open mien, stimulating the inside dopamine of people and bringing pleasure and positive emotions.
The space of the master bedroom is divided by retro red colour blocks, while the wallpaper above the headboard also uses the allusion of Eve and Adam stealing the forbidden apple in the religion story. The designer invites the hostess to participate in the creation of wall paintings in the house, integrating the owner’s artistic ideas into the overall spatial design, forming an effective interaction while deepening the connection and the belongings between the residents and the house. The house can fill with the stories of its inhabitants if it becomes a gallery. Everything of life can convey the inside hidden world . Let every area of the house be read, even if stay silent, there will be a in-depth communication with the owner in the space and atmosphere. The role of the designer is to give the client a stage to bring herself into full play, so that all emotions and beliefs can be wielded to the fullest in her own house.
