Space is the stage. Light, smell, rhythm and the five senses of being in it sway with the wind. Just a few steps along the winding Lake Jin Road will take you to Oak LAN Bay, which has an inner lake. The project is composed of two adjacent independent villas that are connected and reorganized, with their Outlines changing accordingly. At the same time, the uniformity of the building's facade is restored to ensure harmony with the original site environment. The increase in indoor area is conducive to the re-planning of layout. By combining objective conditions, functional needs and aesthetic tastes, a picture of a home vacation life can be constructed.

The purpose of construction usually points to making reasonable judgments. The first floor takes the northwest side as the core public area, integrates living functions, removes redundant walls, and opens towards the north courtyard, allowing light, air and landscape to flow freely. The large-scale deep space is divided by folding screens and cabinets based on the original column positions, allowing for flexible expansion and contraction. In terms of the circulation, privacy and openness are taken into consideration. Stairs are designed separately to separate dynamic and static areas, ensuring no interference.

Nature is another main thread of the project design. Considering the family attributes of the owner who works from home, socializes daily and pays attention to spending time with children, the public area should be as open as possible. Trees and gardens should be planted to expand the lighting area. While providing a wide view, it should also be connected both inside and out, allowing a natural influx of people. The interior is decorated with natural materials such as wood, paint, fabric and weaving, creating an ideal living state of "hidden in the city". Beyond the mountains and forests, there is a whole new world.

Based on the residents' love for dance, in addition to setting up a dance area on the first floor to meet the needs of daily practice, we have extracted the "circles or arcs" in dance movements and endowed them with humanistic qualities, making them the design language that runs through the entire process. As for the second floor, the public area is centered around a sunken circular custom sofa zone, surrounded by woodwork. Sitting around it, one feels as if they are in nature, making it an important shared space for family interaction and communication.

The body is a language. Besides daily body movements, it can also be poetically expressed through dance. When the music started, it danced gracefully. As the core vertical path in the space, the captured movement moments during the dance process are transformed into a concrete installation like a staircase. The "exaggerated" 1.5-meter scale spirals upwards - considering the safety of children going up and down the stairs simultaneously, it is like a "round dance", graceful and melodious.

The outdoor natural landscape, the internal corridor, the facade openings adjacent to the rooms, and the public Spaces with cushioning all open towards the staircase area. The interplay of light and shadow and the superimposition of lines of sight create a complex and three-dimensional spatial landscape between seeing and being seen, leaving a deep impression. The handrail of the staircase is layered inside and out, and the external coating integrates the facade with the ceiling. The interior woodwork creates an illusion of the floor extending upwards, which is quite interesting.

Objects are miniaturized architectural vessels, containing memories and emotions. In the new residence, various items moved from the old house by the owner can be seen everywhere, ranging from large furniture to small ornaments. The beloved things coexist harmoniously with the space and people. Following the design language of the public area, the partial facade of the master bedroom and the ceiling of the master bathroom are decorated in an arc shape. The soft curvature not only echoes the overall design but also creates a relaxed and comfortable feeling.

Music enters the body, the limbs reflect emotions, the rhythm evokes beauty, and all things are interrelated, interdependent and mutually generating. In each tiny "day" unit, we began to perceive the meaning of time. Thus, we slowed down our minds and steps, perceived space, enjoyed nature and its natural state, paid attention to our families, cultivated our inner selves, loved everything, and danced like life.
