Shangri-La Villa

Winding through tree-lined paths and parting layers of lush greenery, you finally reach this secluded villa nestled between mountains and water. Backed by verdant hills and facing a serene lake, this is where he chose to make his home. Here, even time seems to slow down. Every scene, every corner exudes a sense of tranquility and ease.

The two-story European-style house is framed by a meticulously designed garden. Evergreen pines and decorative stones create a harmonious contrast, while the graceful koi fish swimming lazily in the pond add a touch of liveliness to the space. The summer breeze and the early autumn leaves cast the most genuine reflections here, as children run freely and play in the garden, infusing the space with vitality and freedom.

For the owner, the thing he longs for most amid his busy work life is the comforting feel of home, the warmth that soothes his soul. In his eyes, the kitchen and dining area embody the essence of life—gentle and welcoming, they bring a sense of atmosphere unmatched by the rest of the home.

The unique aroma of food stirs the senses, awakening the most familiar of tastes. Gathering around the dining table with family to share a meal is the moment of reunion for the day. The light-drenched scene pulls them away from the outside world's distractions, offering a quiet place for the spirit to rest. It’s a simple and universal setup, yet one that holds a unique, irreplaceable charm.

The transparent light breaks through the boundaries of sight, creating a resonance between the body and nature. Morning sunlight streams through the windows, casting a glow on everyday interactions—cooking and dining with loved ones, turning even the most ordinary daily routines into moments of ritual.

The complexities of work drive his yearning for nature and relaxation, while also inspiring a desire for a simpler life.

In art, blank spaces are left intentionally to create room for imagination. In life, they allow space for possibilities.

In his home, every functional area is thoughtfully arranged. The marks of design are deliberately softened by the rhythms of daily life until they fade completely, leaving the most tender emotions embedded in the space, reflecting the true essence of living.

The abundance of natural light indoors stretches to its fullest, offering an unobstructed, sweeping view that strips away the chaos of the world, bringing the mind to a state of calm. Here, in the serene moments of solitude, one can have deep conversations with oneself. The kitchen and dining room, dining room and living room, living room and tea room—each functional area serves its own purpose, becoming the vessel for the family’s daily life.

Though the functional areas are distinct, they overlap and blend spatially, striking a perfect balance. This not only tightens the connections between daily activities but also enriches sensory and emotional experiences, infusing the space with healing and tranquility. The relaxed and pleasing spatial experience gently soothes the anxiety brought on by a fast-paced life, awakening a deep-seated desire for simplicity and purity. In this space, the true romance lies in the moments of relaxation. And this sense of comfort and ease is bestowed by the natural light that fills every corner of the home.

In his home, the delicate textures, like a scene from a film, are painted by the interplay of light and shadow. And it is this beauty that CIVRO has come to safeguard.

The villa's interior and exterior two-tone design brings added vibrancy. Inside, the platinum gray of CIVRO’s MED finish echoes the warm, minimalist design language, turning the natural surroundings into a living frame, the landscape changing with each season. On the outside, the chestnut brown coating, applied through spray techniques, pairs with the villa's brown decorative lines, sketching the building’s contours, imbuing it with a sense of depth and quiet call.

The interior is not just a resting place but also the best venue for dialogue with the outdoors. CIVRO’s excellent thermal insulation performance bridges the gap between people and nature. The extensive use of CIVRO's XWS115 outward-opening window with screen sash combination series keeps insects at bay while allowing gentle sunlight to wash over the space, softly easing the day’s fatigue.

Through CIVRO, the owner is enveloped in nature’s embrace, able to fully enjoy the peace and comfort of solitude or, with family, relish the joys of everyday life, experiencing a serene moment free from the distractions of the world.
