Ma Zhisheng Designer|A Miraculous Transformation: 9 Revolutionary Design Tips for an 11-Ping Beijing Mini Apartment

Сonsectetur adipiscing elite, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua enim ad veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut.

  1. Redefining Space: Breaking Boundaries, Redefining

First, designer Ma Chi Cheng boldly dismantled all non-bearing walls. This move not only opened up the space originally proposed by the Administration, but also laid the foundation for subsequent creative designs. In this way, the designer successfully transformed the limited 11-floor space into a comprehensive living area with all-round functions such as living, resting, home and reading.

  1. Magic of Light: Let the Sun Flow Freely

Before the renovation, although the apartment had windows on all three sides of the northeast, it was difficult for the sun to penetrate deep into the room due to the presence of partition walls. The designer cleverly used a square block of wood to divide the space while creating two corridors connecting the bedroom and the living room. This design not only allows light and air to flow freely, but also creates an open and smooth feeling of space.

  1. Floating Beauty: Creating Visual Miracles

To further enhance the openness of the space, the designers innovatively adopted a “lifting” structure that “suspended” the sofa, wooden block and bedroom. This design not only visually creates a feeling of lightness, floating, but also subtly increases the fluidity of the space.

  1. Multifunctional hallway: the ultimate in space utilization

The corridor on both sides of the wooden block is endowed with multiple functions. The toilet and shower are integrated on one side, sharing a sliding door, which both guarantees the independence of functions and saves space. The other side is a multi-purpose area for art displays, book storage, music enjoyment and household items storage.

  1. Bedroom Ideas: Embracing Natural Light

The bedroom at the end of the corridor, with the bed facing the window, allows residents to enjoy the beautiful view of sunrise and sunset every day. This design not only adds practicality to the space, but also adds a touch of poetry to everyday life.

  1. Kitchen innovation: the perfect combination of function and aesthetics

The kitchen area is cleverly integrated with bedroom wardrobes, washbasins, refrigerators to form a single block. The designers chose a simple, pure material, combined with a stainless steel plate with a large area of wood, which not only solves the functional needs of “take, wash, cut, fry”, but also creates an elegant and simple visual effect.

  1. Admission Area: See Mishaka in details

The entrance office has designed a hanging storage cabinet that continues the overall “hold up” structure, providing space for temporary items. This design not only adds practicality, but also visually achieves the continuity of space.

  1. Creative Illumination: The Interplay of Emotion and Function

The wall lights in the entrance area use the same wood and stainless steel plates as the space body, in addition to a flannel cloth for the homeowner to brew coffee to extract the light. In particular, the puller of the drawbar uses the homeowner's commemorative ring, which cleverly blends life memories with spatial design.

  1. Material Contrast: Rich Space Level

The designers cleverly use different materials such as wood, metal, and so on, while ensuring functionality, enriches the texture and fun of the space. The contrast of this material not only adds visual level, but also brings vitality and personality to the entire space.
