Life is not about maximizing everything, it's about giving something back – like light, space, form, serenity, joy.

Kunming, the Spring City, is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces the picturesque Dianchi Lake to the south. In this city, bathed in sunlight and blessed with nature, life is relaxed, free, and full of possibilities.

WJ STUDIO aims to rediscover the core of everyday life through design, creating spaces that reflect a variety of lifestyles and deepening the connection between people, and between people and their environment.

01 Art & Relaxation

Light traces time and adds depth to space.

Lush elephant ears, casually arranged artworks, and the relaxed, open atmosphere—all of these embody the spirit of freedom in this home. Sunlight dances across the interior, casting playful shadows and soft lines.

The natural color palette brings a unique sense of calm to the space. Whether spending time alone or sharing a drink with friends, every detail feels perfectly balanced.

The living room is where we connect with ourselves and with others. Rich, earthy chestnut tones set a tone of warmth and openness, embracing elements like music, art, and collections. The shifting play of light and shadow subtly reveals textures, creating a space that is both inviting and expressive.

In the study, a lattice-style wine cabinet acts as a divider, creating a space that feels private without being closed off. It’s the perfect spot to curl up with a book, sip coffee, and bask in the sunlight streaming through the window—ideal for moments of quiet reflection.

The bedroom, with its use of soft cotton-linen, velvet, and washi paper, creates a relaxed, vacation-like atmosphere—ideal for unwinding and reconnecting with nature.

The multifunctional room serves multiple purposes—a guest room, a movie room, a space for hobbies, or a retreat. The minimalist approach leaves room for creativity and the simple enjoyment of time spent alone.

02 Fashion & Trend

As you step in, indigo blue immediately catches your eye, injecting energy and vibrancy into the space. The contrast of colors, materials, and shapes creates a dynamic atmosphere, elevating the everyday into something more artistic.

Custom pieces like the angular sofa and sculptural chairs make bold statements, offering a fresh take on how we live today and where we’re headed in the future.

The round, bean-green dining table paired with the geometric blue artwork creates a harmonious balance between color and form.

In the study, the streamlined bookshelf acts as a backdrop for various collectibles—from trendy toys to art pieces and vinyl records—giving a glimpse into the homeowner's unique tastes and personality.

Rich, bold colors and geometric patterns also feature prominently in the master bedroom. The combination of red, green, black, yellow, and blue adds warmth and passion, sparking the imagination without overwhelming the senses.

The children’s room is a colorful space where creativity comes alive—art here is something to look at, create, and play with.

03 Nature & Warmth

The first thing you feel when entering this home is its warmth, coziness, and gentleness.

The entryway sets the tone for the home, with playful piano-key hooks offering a touch of whimsy, adding a welcoming ritual to your return.

The open dining and kitchen area, with its clean lines and simple cabinetry, creates a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere, perfect for casual meals and intimate gatherings.

A soothing wood palette runs throughout the space, complemented by soft whites and warm fabrics—creating an overall sense of calm, natural beauty, and comfort.

The balcony, adorned with greenery, is a quiet retreat. Sip a cup of tea and enjoy the peaceful ambiance as the scent of the tea fills the space, bringing a moment of serenity.

The study continues the theme of tranquility, with an open bookshelf energizing the room while subtly displaying the owner’s art collection.

This sense of calm carries into the master bedroom, where soft bedding and warm lighting create a restful environment—perfect for both relaxation and restful sleep.

The children’s room embraces a playful jungle theme, with green accents and adorable animal characters creating a fun and joyful space for young imaginations.

The ideal lifestyle is not simply determined by the city or the environment, but by how we understand and engage with life itself. Art, light, and shadow—woven together in harmony—bring us back to the essence of living.
