Beijing Club

Beijing Club is a private clubhouse located in Beijing, covering 400 square meters including a central courtyard. The interior is set within a traditional Chinese building, and the design lets the old and the new coexist. Following the concept of Shade Rouge, the original structure was kept and combined with modern elements, while lighting emphasizes the red color and extends it through the space. Metal strips and separating seams mark the joints between the existing and the newly built parts. The courtyard connects all rooms and brings seasonal change inside.

Master Suite

Master Suite is an interior design for the main bedroom and bathroom of a country house. The projected area is 42 square meters. Two walls were removed to join three small rooms into one open space. Alternative materials replace natural ones in order to save resources. Vinyl coverings and an ecological deck made from recycled bottles replace wood, ceramic tiles recall bricks, and hand braided synthetic fibers line the ceiling. Shades of gray are combined with wood furniture, copper lamps and many plants. The intent is a warm and restful atmosphere close to nature.

Huxi Villa is a residential interior design for a three-story house of 800 square meters. The plan includes a living room, a master bedroom, a second bedroom, a home cinema, a billiards room and a western kitchen. The former neoclassical arched windows were changed into triangular ones to match the existing triangular roof, increasing daylight and fresh air.

The aim is a simple home based on sunlight, air and water.

Moritomi

The new space tries to reproduce the castle stone fortifications pattern in various materials including rough and polished stones, black oxide coated steel, and tatami mats. A floor made in small resin coated gravels represents the castle moat. Two colors, white and black, flows like water from outside, and crossing the wooden lattice decorated entrance door, to the reception hall.
