SHORT DESCRIPTION

Living in a bustling city can often feel like a never-ending race, and it's crucial to have a space where you can retreat and find solace. The owner of this home recognized the importance of creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere and thus asked the designer to opt for a Japanese wabi-sabi style as the dominant theme. The use of simple and rustic designs blended seamlessly to cultivate a sense of tranquility, which allows residents to relax and unwind from the outside world. Despite being two decades old, the house's exterior maintains its age, but the wabi-sabi style gives it a vintage feel that harmonizes perfectly with the interior. The result is an unparalleled and welcoming space that exudes a sense of calmness and tranquility that is hard to find elsewhere. The proprietor of this abode maintains a hectic business agenda, frequently departing early in the morning and returning late at night. To decompress and unwind after a hard day's work, the owner yearns for a haven of repose and meditation. The overall layout of the area incorporates cozy gray and brown hues with gentle illumination, instilling a soothing and pacifying milieu. The entrance wall and the rear wall of the couch showcase a vignetting effect, meticulously crafted by a skilled artisan in multiple phases to emulate an ink-play landscape painting. This design constituent artfully complements the fragrance of books wafting from the adjacent campus, culminating in a tranquil atmosphere. The original design of this abode lacked a proper entrance foyer, but the astute designer ingeniously incorporated sturdy sliding doors and partitions made of high-quality wood to create a chic and functional one.
