Private House in Beijing in Black and White
Today in the home tours section we feature a very stylish private residence in Beijing. We love how black and white design scheme is skilfully highlighted with decorative lighting.
Project location: Beijing
Design agency: Wu Wei DESIGN
The “modernism” of Beijing architecture seems to adapt to the rushed daily life of contemporary people more quickly and “understand” their expectations for the future. From the shape to the function, Yuanyang Tianzhu centered on the owner’s life demands. The designer creates a multi-dimensional divergent experience in a limited space.
Trendy concept of the open space is implemented with careful zoning of each functional area.
The owner spends half of his time working at home, hoping not to disturb each other when he is with his children and parents. Therefore, the designer has created a composite space utilization, so that each floor not only realizes the conventional functions but also used for other purposes. The south-facing space is more open, adding storage areas and creating a happy home for three generations, creating the most massive space utilization.
Black and white colour palette doesn’t distract from the architectural forms and abundance of texture.
The transitional space is the hub of daily life. The designer disassembles it into white and black installations and expands the mood and memory of passing through this area with a realistic photographic work. From the living room to the kitchen, the same creative technique used to string together. Brass, glass, mirrors, and other durable materials mix abstract artwork, giving the space an invisible field and rhythm.
Interestingly, the designer also “helps collect” natural elements and decorates them into the living room. The “growth of trees” on the wall did not stop but spread downwards to become part of the house. People, art, and nature merge, leaving a large area of gray-textured walls blank and left for imagination.
The lighting fixtures in this projects are beautiful sculptures, giving the space a totally different look and depth when it is getting dark.
Wu Wei likens each of his projects to “talking about a long relationship.” Naturally, much time must spent on “researching” people. As a designer, he insists on giving the best to his clients, so the matching of people and space is a technical and professional issue. After all, the house becomes “home” because of “people.”
