The designer said, "I have worked on so many projects, and I have never been so moved by the joy of the homeowners after any of them landed This joy does not come from the designer's "sense of completion", but from the homeowner's "sense of use" of the space - she began to slowly read this home, seeing it as an extension of her body, a rhythm of daily life, and living with it as a natural state. The first floor is an open horizontal living area, with no boundaries between the tea room, restaurant, and reception area. A room without functional segmentation, without a "background wall" pointing, only a freely arranged and flowing flow. Life is not arranged, but rather stretched out in harmony. Whether a space is upscale or not is never judged by whether the materials are expensive or the furniture is neat, but by whether the homeowner is willing to stay and open their heart to coexist with the space. And she, willing. Not only was she willing, but she also entrusted her emotions, stories, memories, and even silence to this space. She is not 'using' it, but 'conversing' it. And this space did not disappoint her either. The room on the third floor has no ceiling and retains the original roof structure. Although the space is small, it has the widest view and is her favorite place to be alone. She said that the wind is very light, but it can also soften people's hearts. The wooden floor is made of teak wood, which has not been decorated with any cuts or patterns; Anti corrosion wood is burnt black, stable and heavy; The wall is coated with artistic paint, without patterns or color jumps - simple and heavy, this is the bone of space. And the stone stools, wooden coffee tables, and small items she collects are dynamic and breathing. The end of design is not the work, but whether the person who truly lives in it, from morning till night, always coexists with the space in a comfortable, peaceful, and relaxed manner.
