UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Combine cornices with a modern, minimalist design concept. Let the Chinese architectural style naturally integrate into the Chinese furniture, which not only maintains the traditional aesthetic characteristics, but also loses the simplicity and comfort of modern aesthetics.
