This color combination complements the arc structure to create a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, especially suitable for parent-child reading and reading. Interaction, we should also try to encourage interaction and communication between family members, making reading a family activity, further strengthening the emotional connection between family members.
When designing Villa 150, we focused on balancing resort-like aesthetics with the practical needs of modern living, ensuring that the two complement each other in harmony. Terrava Manor is surrounded by 700 bald cypress trees and 90,000 dense shrubs. The natural environment became the basis for design inspiration. We hope to extend the natural atmosphere of the outdoors into the indoors, making people feel at home as relaxed as if they were on vacation.In terms of practicality, we selected natural stone, low-formaldehyde plates and environmentally friendly paint to ensure the safety and health of the space and meet modern people's needs for green and environmentally friendly life. At the same time, the lighting system uses energy-saving LED light sources, which not only conforms to the trend of environmental protection, but also creates a warm living environment.In space design, the unity of function and aesthetics is our focus. For example, the room’s curved door arch and macaron-toned design not only create a relaxing atmosphere, but are also very suitable for parent-child interaction and communication. In addition, we also incorporated hidden storage spaces to make the room neat, beautiful and easy to use.This design concept makes Villa 150 a space that combines aesthetics and functionality, allowing residents to experience the convenience and comfort of modern life while enjoying the natural atmosphere.
When designing the master bedroom of Villa 150, we used Rolex gray stone and melamine hard plastic that imitates solid wood to achieve a peaceful and stable spatial balance. In order to balance the heaviness of the stone, we used melamine hard molds imitating solid wood as geometric design elements, and used three-dimensional diamond cutting technology to present delicate spatial details. depth, while producing exquisite light and shadow effects under changes in light.The combination of materials and design fully considers the balance of modernity and modernity, so that the space has the calmness of natural elements and the vitality of design, so that people can exert a unique style and comfort the moment they enter the master bedroom.
When designing Villa 150, we closely integrated the application of LED lighting with aesthetic needs and ecological purposes, aiming to improve energy efficiency while creating a comfortable and atmospheric living environment. The high efficiency and low energy consumption of LED lamps made us It can achieve the goal of energy saving and carbon reduction without sacrificing lighting effect.We chose a variety of lighting methods from recessed, projected and indirect light sources to achieve different levels of light effects. These light sources can not only meet the functional needs of the space, but also create a relaxing and even atmosphere through soft and even light distribution. The comfortable atmosphere allows residents to feel the natural changes in light and shadow in every corner.In terms of aesthetic design, we combined LED lamps with the geometric lines of the interior. Especially in the master bedroom and public areas, we used strip lamps to emphasize the three-dimensionality of the space and add visual hierarchy. Such a design not only enhances the sense of modernity, but also creates a warm and design-rich environment.Through careful selection of LED lighting technology, Villa 150 successfully balances environmental and aesthetic requirements, achieving efficient energy use while creating a living space that is both comfortable and attractive.
When designing Villa 150, I was deeply influenced by my experience in Argentina. I cleverly blended Eastern and Western design elements to express the unique life language brought by different cultural backgrounds. The passion of Argentina contrasts with the simplicity of the East, a process that inspired me to incorporate emotional and natural elements into modern design to create spaces that are alive with life.In terms of space layout and material selection, I chose a large number of natural stones, solid wood and plant elements. These materials not only conform to the concept of Eastern simplicity, but also contain the warmth and vitality of Argentinian design. The simple line design supports the entire space and creates a It creates a natural and quiet atmosphere and exudes warm emotions in every detail.The use of light and color further enhances the integration of cultures. The design of LED lamps is cleverly matched with the space layout, allowing every corner to emit a soft and charming light and shadow effect, which can not only enhance the level of the space, but also create a warm and comfortable atmosphere.This combination of Eastern and Western design makes Villa 150 not only a functional living space, but also integrates my cultural experience and design inspiration in Argentina to create a unique cross-cultural living environment.
When designing Villa 150, I focused on creating seamless spatial transitions, emphasizing the continuity of lines and the coordination of surfaces, so that the transition between each area is natural and smooth.First of all, I started with the planning of the space and used the structural characteristics of the building itself to divide it to ensure that the connection between the various areas would not cause visual fragmentation. and extended docking to break hard boundaries and create a sense of flow.Secondly, the choice of material is also a key factor in the transition space, echoing to create a seamless overall feeling.Finally, I enhanced these transitions through initial lighting design. The clever use of recessed lamps and light sources not only enhances the layering of the space, but also creates a slight transition of light and shadow, avoiding strong light source boundaries and further enhancing the smoothness of the space.The comprehensive use of these elements makes the transitional space of Villa 150 rich in rhythm while maintaining a harmonious visual effect, providing residents with a relaxed and natural living experience.
When designing Villa 150, the decision to choose environmentally friendly materials such as low-formaldehyde panels and natural stone stemmed from deep concern for the health of the residents and environmental sustainability. The overall quality provides residents with a healthier and safer living environment.The choice of low formaldehyde is mainly to reduce the release of indoor pollutants, thereby improving air quality. Formaldehyde-free boards can effectively reduce harmful substances in indoor air, thereby improving the overall health of residents.The use of natural security is not only considered in terms of beauty and durability, but also adds a certain natural environment to the interior. Its use can extend the service life of the building, reduce maintenance costs and the burden on the environment.These environmentally friendly materials not only enhance the aesthetic value of the space, but also create healthier and more comfortable living conditions for the residents, which is the core motivation for us to choose them.
When designing the Villa 150 children's room, we proposed a balance of fun and practicality, aiming to create a space that is both creative and supportive of children's growth. The light-hearted dynamic not only captures children's attention but also stimulates their imagination.The curved door arch and ceiling extension create a smooth, open space, avoiding sharp corners and providing a safe environment. Move freely in the environment and develop your personality.In terms of functionality, we designed a hidden storage space, which not only effectively solves the storage problem, but also keeps the space tidy and spacious. Beautiful and neater.Overall, the design of the children's room fully combines fun, practicality and safety, allowing children to learn to live independently and develop self-management abilities while enjoying the space.
