La Casa Grazia Private House

La Casa Grazia Private House is a luxurious residential project completed in 2019, exemplifying a sophisticated fusion of Tuscan and Chinese design elements within an 8,500-square-foot, two-story riverside residence in Shenzhen, China. The architectural and interior design scheme masterfully integrates traditional Tuscan elements such as Travertine marble, terracotta tiles, and ornate wrought iron balustrades with refined Chinese cultural touches, creating a harmonious cross-cultural aesthetic. The residence features meticulous attention to detail throughout its spaces, including a technically challenging spiral staircase crafted from Travertine marble with custom wrought iron railings, hand-painted dyed silk wallpaper panels in the main foyer and dining areas, and an exquisite peacock pattern marble mosaic in the master bathroom composed of thousands of precisely arranged blue marble pieces in varying tones. The interior spaces are thoughtfully designed to embrace natural light and incorporate botanical themes, evident in the fresco-adorned arched ceilings and carefully selected decorative elements. This private residence, which earned a Bronze A' Design Award in the Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design category in 2020, demonstrates exceptional craftsmanship in its renovation from an older structure into a contemporary interpretation of Tuscan architectural principles, while maintaining strong connections to its natural surroundings through warm color palettes, natural materials, and strategic window placements.
