This project is located in the Huguang Shanse community in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province, with a building age of 10 + years. Construction commenced in September 2021 and was fully completed in May 2023. The building area is 150 ㎡. Main materials used: tiles, stone, veneer, wood customization, interior wall paint, tiles, finished furniture, sanitary ware, etc.
The designer for this case was the first party, and from their own perspective, they took the lead on both the design, construction, and materials selection, from the perspective of the first party. Finally, although this case is highly faithful to its original plan, we are very touched.
The title of this case is The Late Work, which derives its meaning from multiple levels. One reason is that the client (the designer) was born in the 1990s, but a relatively small minority of people who are currently aged and capable of buying a 150-square-meter residential property in the city where the designer is located, and designing and decorating it with full financing, are actually born in the 1990s. This is due to the designer's accidental discovery of opportunities in other fields at work and its success, which has contributed to the current case. Second, the design and construction stages coincided with a nationwide epidemic that resulted in an extended implementation timeline from 2021 to 2023. The third reason is that due to the extended landing time, there are personnel changes and brand changes at various stages (such as staff changes leading to implementation errors by the material selection team), which can lead to a lack of fidelity to the original plan or errors in the finished product, resulting in delays in the completion of the project. Fourthly, because designers were involved as more than the "customer" during the project's implementation and also noticed many unexpected issues from the perspective of the"supplier", what you see now is a 2021 design work that was completed in 2023.
