Private Residence Design in Wenzhou, Zhejiang, China

This project aims to go beyond the traditional segmented villa design model, viewing the residence as a complete living entity, and achieving an experi-ence where 'the whole is greater than the sum of its parts' through three core strategies:



- Collaborative Design: Architecture, interior, landscape, and smart consult-ants work together from the conceptual stage based on the same 'living script.' This ensures that spatial narratives, circulation, and material lan-guage seamlessly continue from the exterior to the interior, maintaining functional and visual coherence.



- Integration with Nature: Using 'grey spaces' such as deep eaves, covered corridors, and internal courtyards to guide light, wind, and views into daily life. Combined with visual permeability and climate-responsive design, this allows the body to transition smoothly between nature and the interior, cre-ating an overall space that breathes.



- Resident-Centered: Moving away from stylistic labels, functions and scenes are customized around the owner's living habits and emotional needs, shaping a unique 'living container.'



Through cross-disciplinary integration and a return to the essence of living, this project presents a complete design model where 'the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.'
