This project uses mineral-textured paint as the spatial foundation, paired with warm wood veneer, natural stone, refined metal accents, and layered lighting design. It skillfully fuses contemporary Italian aesthetics with the poetic elegance of the East, creating a modern yet richly layered living environment.

The foyer ceiling features a lantern-inspired focal design, with an embedded soft light panel serving as the main illumination to craft a distinctive welcoming scene. Door panels adorned with delicate gold mesh subtly express refined luxury, reflecting an international sense of style.

The flooring transitions elegantly between deep black stone and grey stone, clearly defining the circulation path and gracefully delineating the foyer and living room while adding visual depth and functional zoning.

In the living area, a large curved TV feature wall anchors the visual focus. The TV cabinet, crafted from black wood veneer and black lacquered framing, achieves a seamless concealed design, outlining a sleek and fluid spatial narrative. Nearby, a circular titanium-plated fireplace sculpture breaks away from traditional forms, introducing a sculptural, artful touch.

Display cabinets combine stone veneers and wood in an offset composition, cleverly hiding the electrical panel within. The frames incorporate recessed detailing that subtly echoes Eastern elements, blending traditional depth with modern language to create a layered exhibition aesthetic.

In the dining area, the island and cabinetry feature travertine stone as the main tone, complemented by metal accents and glass. Integrated light panels enhance the textures, presenting a minimalist yet refined dining atmosphere that balances utility and beauty.

The staircase features a stacked stone design that showcases a sense of three-dimensional progression, paired with black wood veneer and textured paint on the walls, creating sophisticated layering and a modern material contrast.

Throughout, the dialogue between materials and meticulous details seamlessly merges the graceful charm of Eastern culture with contemporary Italian design aesthetics, expressing a modern lifestyle infused with an international perspective.
