Reconfigured Home Design With Curves & Muted Colours

A restructured layout delivers a newfound brightness and spaciousness to this 583 square metre home, located in Zhejiang, Hangzhou, China. Designed by Shexia Design, decorative details are employed to transform unimaginative corners. Overhanging and sinking architectural volumes resculpt natural light. The innovative spatial design ideas are a fusion of classical and artistic silhouettes, which come together under a soothing air of simplicity. Crisp white backdrops and muted colour infusions conjure a modern aesthetic that’s restful yet characterful. Mosaics and contemporary tile treatments bring intriguing pattern to floors, bathrooms, and a unique staircase design. These unexpected focal points fashion bold juxtapositions where beauty and utility unite.

The living room is a double-height volume, where a mezzanine landing creates a dramatically curved structure.

Circular indents are sunken into the underside of the mezzanine structure to house lighting.

A glass coffee table reflects natural light from the large living room windows. Its black base contrasts darkly with a beige living room area rug.

A curved sofa complements the curvaceous mezzanine landing design.

The living room rug is a unique linear design with breakaway edges. Its linearity complements the coffee table and a tall freestanding bookcase.

Sheer white voiles hang at the double-banked living room windows. The lightweight drapes softy frame a view of the garden and skyscape whilst allowing natural light to filter through. On the white sofa, a spherical red accent cushion makes bright contrast with the lush green vista.

A chic TV mount curves elegantly into the white wall, achieving a smooth, streamlined look.

Wood parquet flooring lays down a rich base throughout the living room.

A green focal wall unfolds behind the curved couch. At the opposite side of the living room, a modern lounge chair continues the curved shape theme.

Behind the sofa, a formal dining area accommodates up to six people. The living room dining room combo is linked to the kitchen by a set of glass doors. Two open archways lead to the entryway.

A modern snooker table and a bar area complete the large entertainment room.

Upstairs on the mezzanine landing, a home office area looks out upon the entertainment area. The captivating archways march at eye-level. The workspace is furnished with a unique modern desk, chair, and floor lamp ensemble.

The back of the home office area is fitted with a wall of built-in storage cabinets and bookshelves.

A wide column divides the workspace from a child’s play area. Wooden toy boxes slot into a storage bench to create a cute border of arches. A geometric rug lays down a soft play surface.

In the master bedroom, an upholstered headboard design receives the same fabric as the green accent chair in the living room.
