The design concept of this case is natural, comfort, tranquility and luxury. What can interior designers do for people living in the space? Reasonable planning of the space, functions suitable for personal use experience, suggestions on lifestyle. And the creation of spatial visualization to constantly influence the people living in the space through the environment. Getting rid of the visual "overflow" and excessive elements, creating a natural, comfortable and serene visual space with as few elements as possible is the "luxury" that this work wants to interpret. Once upon a time, interior design was passionate about pursuing visual "overflow", just like the magnificent scrolls of the realistic school in paintings. The space was filled with a large number of complicated and miscellaneous decorative elements. The wallpaper with delicate, tortuous and complex patterns was like a beautiful poem, covering every inch of the wall; the elaborately carved and exquisitely crafted furniture was as dazzling as stars, making people overwhelmed; the cascading curtains with interwoven textures were just like dancing elves, swaying gracefully; coupled with countless and diverse ornaments, vying for beauty like a hundred flowers blooming. The use of colors was even more bold and unrestrained. Bright and intense tones collided and merged with each other, striving to create a dreamlike, luxurious and passionate atmosphere. However, when we deliberate from a pure aesthetic perspective, this style of excessive decoration stacking is biased in terms of overall harmony and balance. Too many elements compete and vie with each other in the limited space, resulting in no distinction between primary and secondary in the space and making it difficult to find the focus. This extreme visual saturation does not bring people spiritual pleasure and intoxication but rather a heavy sense of oppression, making it difficult for the soul to find a peaceful habitat in such complexity.
