1. Design Origins: A Contemporary Interpretation of Fuchun Mountain Residences
"Among the world’s finest landscapes, Fuchun is praised through the ages." The project is located in Fuchun District, Fuyang, which is not only a scenic modern urban area but also the original location and real-life setting of the Yuan dynasty master painter Huang Gongwang's legendary work "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains." Here, distant mountains appear like ink, and clear waters flow long and serene, achieving a high degree of harmony between nature and culture.
The inspiration for this project’s design comes from this unique 'landscape gene.' We no longer limit ourselves to mere stacking of traditional Chinese symbols, but aim to integrate the 'spirit, charm, and imagery' of the Fuchun River into modern living spaces.
2. Design Concept: Eastern Form, Contemporary Use
The entire design draws inspiration from the Fuchun landscapes, adhering to the concept of 'Eastern form, contemporary use,' to create a brand-new, elegant, and culturally refined villa. Bringing the scenery indoors and blending interior with exterior: making full use of Fuyang's superior natural environment, floor-to-ceiling windows introduce the outdoor courtyard and natural scenery into the interior. Soft furnishings converse with the outdoor landscape, achieving the artistic conception of 'the interior is a mountain dwelling, and the view outside the window is a painting.'
The soft furnishing design aims to weave the regional spirit of Fuchun and Eastern aesthetic ideals into the details of daily life through modern design techniques. Here, one finds both the subtle elegance of Jiangnan and modern simplicity; it is not only a place for the body to rest but also a forest where the soul retreats. It allows the home to become a flowing landscape painting and living to become a poetic practice.
