In a globalised city, art and life have never been separated. Under the trend of the overall environment, the design of this project tends to create an artistic living space, which can better experience the architectural form and space volume by emphasising artistic decoration and infiltrating art. Harmony World Consultant & Design - The Catania Wuhan What inspired the design of the project? We provide each viewer with a certain identity of presence in this immersive space, which means that they have various possibilities to reconstruct their feelings as individuals and continue to write stories. This is the meaning of our design. Harmony World Consultant & Design - The Catania Wuhan Harmony World Consultant & Design - The Catania Wuhan What was the toughest hurdle your team overcame during the project? The integration of various design elements in the space has become our main design consideration. In order to continue the cultural attribute of the integration of multiple cultures, we also focused on the retro style of multi focus, artistic and cultural heritage and French elegance when creating this house style. Harmony World Consultant & Design - The Catania Wuhan What was your team’s highlight of the project? The overall beige tone shows its elegance to the audience. At the same time, the entrance is a master sculpture from the Paris. Through the appreciation of artistic sculpture and the continuity of metal chandelier space, the audience is constantly attracted to explore the space, to re-establish their feelings of space in their minds and create the artistic atmosphere of Home Gallery. It shows the collision and integration of modern and classical art in space as a whole, and the experience of “crossing multi-dimensional space” is completed by the design. Innovation and retro, collision and blending, thus reflecting the instantaneous eternity of the concept of art space.
