As a retirement home for the couple, it features a light color palette and simple lines to create a rustic ambiance emphasizing the simple pleasures in life. Wood and stone ooze a sense of stability and give the space a laid-back and soothing atmosphere. The unique texture of hand-made paint brings a sense of rustic vibe. Its uneven surface explores the beauty of imperfection in nature. Like the ups and downs, it is the understated charm of life.
Upon entering the room, the ink-colored circular floor and a movable partition delineate the foyer and mud room. The movable lattice solves the layout woe of the front door facing the dining table by providing flexibility to open a room up to be more spacious, yet still enclose it when privacy is needed.
Just like misty clouds, the main wall has a stone base, with patterns of gray and white which mix together harmoniously throughout the stone. In contrast to the static sense of the dwelling, it creates a visual tension in the restrained space. A reflective black mirror is embedded in the upper level to extend the line of vision and offset the oppressiveness of a large volume. Outside, the upright storage cabinet with a wood lattice on the edge. The flowing light can cast subtle shadows that increase the depth within the space and enhance it with dynamism.
The wall behind the sofa is painted with artistic coatings to return to its original rustic beauty. The restrained gray tones echo the main wall, while the gradient of colors creates layers of detail. On the ceiling, a flowing arc softens the sharp angles and showcases the lightness and elegance of the volume. Bright yellow lights lead the way to the dining room. The dining area is enclosed due to the constraints of the layout. In addition to the primary source of light, indirect light sources are installed on the wall and canopy to add a sense of warmth and also provide illumination to the space.
