The Wu
House for Veryspace Design
The project team abandons unnecessary ornaments and furniture and, with concise lines, presents the most natural and simplest space as well as a closer spatial relation between people and things, so as to create a place where the residents rest in a relaxed and comfortable way. The color collocation follows the pattern of the public area. The white warm tone is used for the surface coats of the furniture for a relaxed touch, and the gray color is adopted for the floor in this space, thus to create a neat and quiet atmosphere.

Unique Properties
This design of a private house for a family of three integrates the minimalist interior into the entire space. The project team abandons unnecessary ornaments and furniture and, with concise lines, presents the most natural and simplest space as well as a closer spatial relation between people and things, so as to create a place where the residents rest in a relaxed and comfortable way.

Production Technology
The European lines, which are basic elements in space design, are presented in a form to look curved and straight, virtual and real, dynamic and static. By applying the minimalist design approach, the lines are endowed with a unique artistic charm, while giving the space a perceptual sublimation. Thanks to the efforts of the design team, this 145 sqm house has a comfortable space for both sitting room and dining room, a reading quarter by the bay window, a master room with bathroom, a cozy kid's room, and a walk-in closet featuring new urban family lifestyle.
Design Challenge
The challenges of this project lie in the following areas: firstly, the single layout of the house makes it difficult to highlight the design; secondly, the excessive number of door bodies in the living room tends to make the space fragmented; thirdly, it is difficult to get a reasonable arrangement of storage methods in the space; fourthly, the room wardrobe makes the space compact; and fifthly, the area ratio between public and private space is not reasonable.
Project Duration
The project started in January 2019 in DongGuan and finished in August 2020 in DongGuan.
Operation Flow
Taking advantage of the original architectural plane, the design team connects the living room and the dining room, making the area open and flexible. The gray wall embellishes the public area to clarify the functionality of the space. The plain gray hue puts the space in a rich hierarchy. The panel wall with a hidden door is a highlight of the project, as it looks neat but not fragmentary, and makes the whole living environment cleaner and tidier, with a fresh life experience.
Research
The designer made hidden doors in the living room, which can make the space look simpler and at the same time can enlarge the space, borrowing the height difference of the beams to let the ceiling hang to distinguish the living room from the dining room. The storage cupboard is designed as a closed cabinet, with the outer door panels acting as a decorative wall and the storage cupboard hidden away so that the space is not oppressive.
Inspiration
The ultimate goal of this project was to bring the residents' minds back to peace, so the designers tried to cut out unnecessary decorations and furniture in order to bring people and objects and spaces closer together. As the owner is particularly fond of the European style, the designer used European lines as the basic elements of the design, but without overly affecting the relaxing atmosphere of the home.
