About Spirit of Ink Villa
Spirit of Ink is a villa interior design inspired by Chinese ink painting. The residence covers 165 square meters. Color, material and structure are used as brush and ink to create a space that is fresh, simple and calm. The living room combines ink black and soft white, placing the two colors side by side. Leather sofas, curtains, marble tables, carpets and ceramics reflect one another and form a corner of an ink painting. Natural wood elements and hanging paintings add warmth. The ink theme is kept light rather than dull, with tones matched to each bedroom.

- Production Technology
- The living room uses the splicing of ink black and elegant white, and also boldly blends them together, so that the two colors stand side by side. The space is dotted with leather sofas, curtains, marble tables, carpets and various ceramics, the colors of the objects reflecting each other, forming a corner of an ink painting.
- Design Challenge
- The biggest challenge of this project was to think about how the design could incorporate the Chinese ink painting elements that the householder liked into the interior space without making the whole space feel gray, dull and monotonous. The lightness of the colors needed to be mastered in the different bedrooms and needed to match the personality traits of the users.
- Project Duration
- The project started in July 2021 in Guangxi and finished in October 2021 in Guangxi.
- Operation Flow
- The small lion with a dot of ink on the table is auspicious and lovely, and the ink cabinet and curtain with a wide-open ink brush are as straight as a dragon. It just like you were going back to the mysterious Tang Dynasty with the combination of Chinese painting-style boldness and naturalistic log elements, and the mysterious of hanging paintings.
- Research
- Half a city of green trees and half a city of buildings, Yongzhou has been known for its mountains, rivers, lakes and streams since ancient times, and people call it the Green Capital.
It is full of greenery and green leaves everywhere. The team may take heavy ink, or dip in water, and write sketchily, this kind of design is really wisdom, this kind of life is good. - Inspiration
- This is what inspired me. Life should be like a Chinese ink painting, either you apply heavy or light color onto the paper, it will always be elegant and graceful. Leave the suitable margin, life might be easier and more meaningful. Sticking one thing to the bottom is what makes your life rich and also simple. What if you live like an oil painting? It is also good. But it is easier to fall into dazzling chaos, that makes you bogged down and exhausted.
