About Sunny Chinese House Residence
Sunny Chinese House is the interior design of a detached villa with four floors and an interior area of 400 square meters. The layout is symmetrical and follows the traditional Chinese balance of yin and yang. A new stone wall outside the window creates the impression of a courtyard. A pitched roof and wooden lintels are used in the tall living room. Calligraphy, paintings and porcelain complete the setting. Glass walls, skylights, a sunroom and a terrace bring in daylight. Furniture based on Ming Dynasty models is adapted for comfort.

Secondly, enclosure: a new stone exterior wall are built outside the window to create an impression of traditional Chinese courtyard structure.
Thirdly, roof: the pitched roof is built in the high-rise living room, and log Chinese lintel modelling is used.
Fourthly, furnishings: Chinese-style design furniture, calligraphy and paintings with Chinese style and porcelains are used to create a distinctive Chinese cultural atmosphere.
Improvement of living comfort is as follows:
Firstly, the exterior walls of the public area in the living room are removed and replaced with full glass windows, which integrates the interior and exterior natural environment to bring better lighting and view to the interior.
Secondly, skylight, sunroom, terrace and so on are added into the bedroom to enhance the interaction between human and nature.
Thirdly, the Chinese Ming Dynasty furniture was used as a template to create a more comfortable new Chinese furniture. - Design Challenge
