The house is a monochromatic space in pure black and white minimalism. The open layout broadens the visual depth, with transparent materials to eliminate the barrier between the scenes. The public and private zones are clearly separated but also connected smoothly. Natural light pours in from the wooden foliage, leaving shadows gently on the floor. The clear marble is tinted with beautiful splashed ink landscape, reflecting the warmth underneath the lamp and revealing shallow and deep shadows on the layered wall. Three-dimensional vision between reality and fiction is thus constructed. The dining area is framed by folding doors made of dark brown veneer and iron pieces with grey glass inlays, while the combination of island and a dining table as the axis, collecting all laughter and cheerfulness of the house in a smooth flow. The white island injects a touch of gentle moonlight into the scene, balancing the heavy dining atmosphere. Behind the folding doors is a study and reading area, with elements of wood on the floor and extend upward to the ceiling. The Japanese wooden lattice on the ceiling, showing the poetic and timeless texture of the venue. The large windows in the bedroom allow light and shadow to flow in.
