The site is a three-story old house that serves as the brand's office. The design team wants to innovate and transform the space so that there is no boundary between indoors and outdoors. The theme of the project is "one step, one view", which combines natural materials and features of the old building with a sense of life, gardening, a resort atmosphere, and even a delicate balance between Scandinavian, American, and Chinese styles. Next, they blur the boundaries between indoors and outdoors with sensory experiences, while unobstructedly connecting the sky and greenery. Miniatures of the city and nature are introduced into the interior, creating an aesthetic of unrestricted views at every step.
Unlike the old exterior, the revitalized interior retains the classic look of its early days but is enlivened by the sunlight and shadows of the trees. The memory of the space is preserved. Visitors can always find the beauty of natural elements in the space.
