Nestled within the lush greenery of Wuhu’s elite residential community, this project creates a refined abode for newlyweds—an intimate love nest blending minimalist aesthetics with understated luxury. The design abandons complexity in favor of authenticity, with simplicity and warmth as guiding principles. Earth-inspired tones anchor the space: rich soil hues provide stability, while soft cashmere gray and natural wood textures evoke security and sunlight’s embrace.



Minimalism here is not alienation but the ultimate expression of relaxed aesthetics. Clean lines and polished surfaces are softened with warmth, allowing every blank space to serve as a canvas for life stories. The home integrates elements of intimacy: a consciousness sofa with sculpted contours becomes a safe harbor for closeness, while the expansive horizontal hall houses an elegant desk that serves both as a rational workspace and a shared corner for reading, planning, and companionship.



The unique charm lies in transforming the abstract emotion of “earth’s warmth and security” into a tangible spatial experience through precise orchestration of materials, colors, and light. Each element—sofa, desk, corridors—interacts under the inclusive earth palette, creating a lifestyle about love, growth, and companionship. The home becomes a container for poetic time, recording footsteps of affection and nurturing artistic perception.



Originating from a finely decorated base, the project demanded a complete reconstruction. Almost the entire house was demolished to allow structural optimization, pipeline realignment, and material reintegration. The challenge was to uphold rigorous minimalist craftsmanship from “zero,” ensuring every detail, corner, and shadow resonates with purity and precision.



The design embraces sustainability not only through timeless earthy palettes, durable materials, and flexible spatial frameworks, but also through “emotional sustainability.” It creates an enduring atmosphere of intimacy, safety, and companionship, serving as a “time container” that evolves with the couple’s life stages, continuously nourishing a low-luxury lifestyle.



The Earth Poetry Annotation: Qixin reflects home as an emotional vessel. Rooted in trust and reshaped through minimalism, it realizes a poetic living environment that holds both present sweetness and future possibilities—where love grows within its habitat.
