DESIGN NAME: Gleaming Dimension
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Residence
INSPIRATION: The diamond cubic crystal structure contributes to its highest hardness with it being crystal-clear. The infinite gleam and sparkle of diamonds stems from its high refractive index, representing prosperity, nobility, wealth, and power.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The luxurious and exquisite modern living space is designed based on the concept of "gleam" and "dimension." The elements of lines, squares, cubes, tesseracts, and geometric shapes frame the vivid and dazzling style within. This exquisite space is not only a pursuit of comfort. All the details in the design are an effort to paint a beautiful picture of an ideal life, which are also symbols of status.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: Entering inside, one can immediately see the squarish partition where the entrance and dining room meet. Through combination of lighting and the way each partition is structured, along with multi-layers of the shade of rich colors, each frame in the space is filled with vivid lines and colors. The public area's walls and ceiling are applied with lines, geometric shapes, and lighting design to add up more layers to the space, creating more frames within frames.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: This project is finished in August 2021 in Macau.

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The design therefore is an interpretation of diamond's features through application of different materials. The diamond cut is the inspiration of the design on walls, ceilings, and entrances of each area. It influences the way lines are applied in space. Combining with a well-planned lighting design, the effect depicts the glow, embodying a feast of life and living. With novel techniques to blend particular features of diamonds into the space, the living environment becomes different beautiful paintings with exquisite details and diverse lighting forms.
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: This project is 234 meter square.

RESEARCH ABSTRACT: Lighter colors are the focus of the palette, while darker colors are highlights. They structure a vibrant contrast between each other visually and perceptually. With some champagne gold as highlights, the space gets more fun and richer in layers. Different from common high-end living spaces with marbles as main material, the designer applies wallpapers and synthetic leathers with different textures to create elegant details.
CHALLENGE: Keeping the original big-sized windows, natural lighting is greatly introduced in the space, helps reduce use of electric lights. Different from common high-end living spaces with marbles as the main material, this case is applied with wallpapers and artificial leathers to create the same effect yet reduce the damage mining process causes to the environment.
