平凡的喜悦
这个公寓的设计并非创意非凡或者极尽奢华的案例，而是一个平凡普通的过程和一个故事。公寓的主人是一对大学毕业后从农村来城市打拼的年轻新婚夫妇，第一次在所工作的城市买房，新居结束了以前租房简易过日子的生活，小家包含着他们对新生活、新都市的无限憧憬和期盼。在设计过程中，男女主人都希望把对方喜欢的统统装进来，而且要能经常与三两好友老乡在家聚会小酌。为了满足夫妇俩激动美好的心情，设计师张先生认为，男主人性格率性自由，女主人精致细心，他们的居所应该创造一种欢快摩登的都市生活氛围。
设计师张先生通过对基础建筑的优化设计，将许多零碎的空间化解为带有趣味性的收纳空间。对厨房卫生间做了重点的精细化设计。通过简单、素雅、环保的主材搭配，设计师将色彩元素运用到整体空间设计中，使新家充满喜悦诱人的氛围，并且大幅度的降低营建成本。房间中的许多软饰也都由夫妇二人亲力亲为：客厅的油画来自男主人的美院好友所赠，抱枕、台灯以及小挂饰均来自女主人海淘网购。整个过程设计师并没有刻意命题整个居所的设计，而是让家庭成员都来参与，设计师给一定的整体指导和把控，这样的共通参与模式让夫妇感到亲手打造自己爱巢的喜悦和期盼。
生活就是生活，不可能永远都是阳春白雪。只有为它付出爱，才会有自己心满意足的收获。
Ordinary Joy
The decoration design of this apartment is not a case with extraordinary originalities or luxuries, but an ordinary process or a story. The owner of this apartment is a new-married rural couple, fighting for their life in the city after graduation. They bought their first apartment in the city where they work, which ended the house renting days. The apartment contains their expectations to new life and the city. In the design process, they hope to put each other’s favorite things in and to party with friends and folks. To satisfy their demands, designer Zhang thinks that their apartment should create a cheerful modern metropolitan atmosphere in consideration of host’s forthright personality and hostess’s careful personality.
Designer Zhang optimally designs basic structures to turn fragmentary spaces into storage spaces, and precisely designs the kitchen and the bathroom especially. He applies color elements to whole space design with simple, elegant and environment-friendly principal material, creating a cheerful and attractive atmosphere and reducing decoration cost greatly. Meanwhile, many of soft decorations are arranged by the couple, such as the oil painting in the living room given by a friend of the host in Xi'an Academy of Fine Arts, and the desk lamp and small hang decorations bought on overseas shopping websites by the hostess. Instead of taking the main part of the decoration, the designer cooperates with the couple to decorate the apartment together. With the designer’s overall guidance and supervise, the couple can feel the joy and expectation of building their own home with their own hands.
Life is life, there are not always good things. No pains, no gains.
