Inspired deeply by oriental culture and Japanese aesthetics, the townhouse owner exudes a steadfast attitude towards his minimalist lifestyle, aspiring to imbue his residence with all the necessities of life while reflecting the beauty of simplicity.
When the designer first set foot on the site, he discovered that the lanes and paths in Beijing communities had transformed into artistic expressions, reminiscent of the cherished memories found in the old Hutongs of the city. Buildings, both inside and outside, are decorated by glazed bricks and tiles, red foyers, Taihu Lake stones, an archaistic pavilion and carved windows. Deliberate in details and materials, MIAOJUE DESIGN perfectly matches timber and stone with glass materials.
By skillfully juxtaposing hardness with warmth, MIAOJUE DESIGN uses modern minimalism to build a comfortable oriental home. Mr. Shen Xiaofeng said, “Space is the emotion filled with nature, life, and beauty.”
The building is an L-shaped structure, with a courtyard lying behind it. The Chinese rockery scenery, connected with the cave, stretches into the courtyard with a long corridor and hexagonal pavilion. Shen Xiaofeng and his team, aimed to create a sense of atmosphere, and made a 360-degree loop corridor. The transparent glass doors and windows connect the courtyard scenery with the building space. In addition, doors and windows are also reserved in different scene areas, allowing clients to experience the essence of high-quality natural living.
In the eyes of designer Shen Xiaofeng, minimalism has always been just an attitude. He aspires to strip away unnecessary stylization and open up boundless possibilities within the space, unveiling the most authentic essence of life.
