The Faraway Home

Located in Jingjiang, a beautiful river city in Jiangsu, the Faraway Home is a conceptual hotel specializing in the researches on lifestyle. In the design, the designer adhered to the design concept of ecological health and original personality and created 96 rooms and the leisure lobby of 1000 square meters into the brand-new, personalized and natural living space“where poetic conception is disclosed everywhere, and beautiful goods will appear at any time”by taking the theme of“encounter and return.”
In order to highlight the concept of ecological health, the designer designed the traditional waterwheel landscape. Due to the ancient waterwheel, the space is full of the senses of design and nature, which further enriches the humanistic feelings and natural charms of the space. Based on the unique modelling sculpture, the pelelith shows motion in quiescence, so that the whole lobby has the flowing senses of history and nature.
With a large-area lobby, the original building is not tall. Therefore, in order to remove the sense of repression and create the natural and ecological spatial atmosphere, the designer took the dark colors as the general tonality of the space and applied black to the ceiling.
Through adopting the method that the top and bottom acting in cooperation with each other, the space is endowed with the senses of layer and extension. The lighting arrangement without the king light better renders the spatial relationship in the lobby and makes the whole atmosphere more capacious and elegant. The windows in the style of the ancients, log tables and desks and other elements make the space more unadorned and elegant, return to the original nature and realize the perfect unity of functionality and aesthetic nature.
The designer changed the original windows into the bay windows of tatami and transformed the glass wall into the beveled whole glass, so as to perfectly integrate the leisure area of the water bar with the external landscape, make the line of sight transparent and bright and conform to the theme of ecological health.
