Mr. Kengo Kuma, a well-known Japanese architect, once said: "Home is not something for buying and selling, it is for living and living."
The environment and space we live in often have a subtle impact on the people who live in it. People design and decorate spaces, and in turn, spaces nourish the people who live here.
In the post-epidemic era, more and more people are gradually realizing the importance of the relationship between people and their homes, because amidst the many external uncertainties, home is still one of the few havens that can relieve our fatigue and anxiety. .
The Internet seems to allow people to "reach" anywhere, but what really accompanies us day and night is where we currently live.
As a video media that advocates life aesthetics, Ichijo has photographed the homes of more than 500 guests in the past 8 years.
Every time we visit these stunning interior spaces, we are attracted by the beauty of the home and the comfort of the space.
Whether it is a shabby "old and small" house in the city center or a "rough-style" hut in the mountains, they are all very unique. In the process of communicating with guests, we also found that more and more contemporary young people use "colors" to enhance the appearance of their home spaces.
In the process of building a residence, they treat the home as a show of their own characteristics and life philosophy, just like creating a work of art, and practice their own way to interpret their ideals with aesthetics. home in.
Designs and colors have not only become fashion elements that highlight individuality, but are also important symbols that reflect attitude towards life.
Standing at the beginning of 2022, Ichijo joins hands with Dongpeng to enter the "home of contemporary young people". We want to see how young people in the post-epidemic era use colors to reshape their "new life at home" and what kind of life attitude is hidden behind it.
In the era of winning by appearance,
Choosing a color is choosing your home’s icon.
Architect Shi Cong's home in Xiamen is an out-and-out "residence of light."
Without a lamp or a bed in sight, he did not follow common sense, but he made the renovated new home popular on CCTV.
Because he likes natural light, he knocked down an adjacent closed cloakroom and transformed it into four floor-to-ceiling glass windows. He filled the middle with white gravel and earth-colored clay pots to create a transparent atrium, creating a It feels like a quiet Japanese dry landscape.
In the renovated home, the light slots are all hidden behind the bevels of the roof, but they can emit even and soft light. Whether it is the overall space or the selection of furniture, the colors are light, clean and bright.
Shi Cong said: "The white in the home is just a background color. It is not white for the sake of white, but to make the whole home translucent." Living in such a space will make him feel relaxed and comfortable.
Whether it is the color temperature of the lamp or the color of the tiles, they all serve the overall purpose. Design your own home according to who you want to be. After all, a space that can heal you can heal more people around you.
Shi Cong has an interesting habit. Because he likes to sit in the shower, he built a sitting platform in the bathroom. The wall is covered with fair-faced concrete tiles, which is very simple and elegant.
Taking a shower in such a bathroom is a quiet time suitable for solitude. Without being disturbed, you can completely relax yourself and accumulate full energy for the next day.
In an era where beauty is the key to success, how you shape your home is also an integral part of expressing your personality.
The colors enhance the appearance of the home,
It also enriches the colors of daily life.
If Shi Cong's "Light House" is the ultimate use of light colors, then the home of architect Shi Lei and his wife is filled with a dark and shadowy beauty.
Because the lighting in the entire house was poor and the apartment layout was relatively dim, they simply went in the opposite direction and followed the dim approach instead of focusing on the shortcomings to cover them up.
According to the usual way of solving lighting problems,Generally, light-colored walls are used and decorations are used to reflect the light to get more light. However, in the couple’s opinion, this kind of operation will only make the house less spiritual and even lose its spirituality.
They took inspiration from the Japanese book "In Praise of Shadows" and used all dark materials and tones to decorate the space. Black tiles, green tiles, black ceiling... try to create a spiritual space in a dark environment.
The restaurant uses almost black slate as the wall, with a metal strip in the middle. The light reflected by the metal strip is scattered into the surrounding environment, which fully proves that the reflected light can also be used.
On the other side, the wall was changed into glass bricks, allowing sunlight to hit the glass brick wall and shine into the restaurant.
Although at first glance, all dark materials are used, upon closer inspection, you will find that there is an inherent sense of hierarchy in the dark colors. For example, the dark green tiles on the bathroom wall are laid out just right and are very tense.
Shi Lei told us in the interview that this renovation of his home also allowed him and his family to establish a certain time connection through interaction with nature.
Playing chess, reading a book, or doing nothing at home, lying there and admiring the natural scenery outside the window, is a kind of quiet beauty.
The dark-colored ceramic tiles and slates are the best testimony of the couple’s experimentation and innovation. They add more possibilities to home spaces and make people's lives more colorful.

The home of contemporary young people is a showground for them to show their personality. No matter what color or style you choose, there is a consistent attitude towards life behind it.
Some people admire nature and like to bring the original colors of nature into their homes; some people are keen on minimalism and practice the principle of separation in their lives, and use atmospheric, bright light colors in their home spaces.
In fact, color has always been an important home element. It contains people's respect and love for life, and also carries everyone's memory and beautiful yearning for home.
