"No way of life in this world is completely correct, the sacred mountain and the sacred lake is not the point, accept the ordinary self, but do not give up ideals and beliefs, love life, we are all on the road." -- Kailash, directed by Yang Yang in 2017.

Two projects, different shore

In Chongqing, everyone has their own inner south mountain.

It can be a building, a small courtyard, but it is more than a place, more is the protagonist of each story of Kailash.

Life to nature may have no climax, reversal, or even any meaning, just as the design of this case has a purpose in space, with one, repeated tens of thousands of times, unconscious coherence, but a first-person pilgrimage.

The two residential projects, in order to facilitate the distinction, let's name "The Earth" and "The Mind" respectively, the original geographical structure is the same, but there are different biographies of the two owners.

Two stages of the design process, lifting, cutting, shape, tone, etc., the use of these design techniques.

From the beginning, discard the element concept and solidified design language, because the expression of any language is used for dialogue and communication, so as to ask the heart.

The designer has no intention to peek into the privacy, but has to explore the past and future of the house owner and the current state, a process I call the "question" in design.

The "ask" in design

The project "Earth", we asked "precipitation, control, reverence nature, embrace nature", which is the pursuit of certainty, the pursuit of the rule of naturalism, so we use distance to create space, reference the internal and external boundaries, abandon vertical air, the ultimate human and nature silent ecstasy.

In the project "Mind", we ask "future, new, modern and ancient fusion, adventure jump", which is the pursuit of uncertainty, the pursuit of creation of new realism, so we use vertical vertical, collision, bright, flowing interface connection, focus clear and emphasize the sense of rhythm.

Design for Space

The process of division and integration comes from the magical revelation of life, grasping the certainty in the palm of the hand, and being happy to the uncertainty of the unknown, design has always been pleasing and antagonizing between him and me.

If we had to label the two projects with one image, we would like to call The Good Earth Hiroshi Sugimoto's sea and The Mind Klein Blue.

Hiroshi Sugimoto is not taking pictures with a camera, he brings to photography the books we have read, the movies we have seen, the music we have listened to, the roads we have traveled, and the people we have loved.

Klein blue awakens the strongest spiritual feeling in the purest way. In the project "Soul", we introduce the artist Zhang Chao's work "The Other Shore", and Klein's blue becomes the Buddha green of the owner's self.

The same project houses different Spaces, and what we bring to the design is the owner's personality experience, which is a different one for each. Let the water and air be there, and in the case of light, spontaneously produce the phenomenon of life, as if there were gods.

Epilogue

Do not stop using the five senses to establish contact with the outside world, but also in the interwoven cognition to separate the relationship with reality. All reference and relativity are only from here to there and from there to here as well. Therefore, the impulsive love will be again, and the restrained joy can be again. From "one" to give birth to joy, with "design" outline the other shore.
