ABOUT
The designer focused on creating a sense of fluency of space, opening up barriers between spaces and floors, aiding traffic flow and spatial penetration. The villa originally had a U-shaped layout, and traffic flow does not conform to people's living habits, so they added a corridor linking the tips of the U-shape at the entrance as a foyer, extending the space. A new staircase is also added, placed at the diagonals of the square floor layout, which helps with vertical traffic between floors.

ABOUT
In China, there are not many private villas spaces this large, thus its space and volume makes this project unique. The designers have created a unique space that conforms to the owner's favorite Art Deco style of 1930s, and also conforms to the contemporary lifestyle. In order to maintain a consistency in the space, they have chosen furnitures, lamps and accessories from Italy and France. Among them, the French furniture, lamps, and vases all originated from the 1930s period.
