The house, on the right, is different from the regular design style, of which the dining room and kitchen located on the front indoor space are filled with abundant daylight. The smooth traffic flows surrounding the big island counter contribute to creating the cordial living environment suitable for diverse and intimate family activities and connections. The living room, in addition to normal functions as a parlor, is furnished with the raised wooden platform on the corner as a serene tea area, on which the delicate wooden texture congruously corresponds to the great view to the bamboo forest. Given the house’s detached location and great view to the natural environment, the family, rather than being decorated with curtains, enjoys the great outdoor sceneries and the elegant lifestyle. The stairs in the living room, which is in the other house on the left, are adorned with the glass fences, through which the scattering sunlight expands the sense of sight. Though these two buildings have different layouts, the decoration materials agreeably corresponding to the design principle advocating the natural, plain and elegant manifests the essential beauty of the spaces.
