Echo Villa — The Echo of Earth and Art in the Mountains
Nestled in the hillside landscape of Taiwan, Echo Villa follows the natural terrain, with window lines tracing the silhouette of the Snow Mountain Range, crafting a private dialogue with nature. The homeowners yearn for the rhythm of mountain living, seeing nature as a daily source of healing and spiritual nourishment.

Rooted in this emotional connection with the land, the design concept—“Echo of the Earth”—uses the earth as canvas and mountain forms as rhythm. Architecture and interior dissolve into one another, transforming the space into a vessel for coexisting with nature.

The entire residence is grounded in earthy sand tones. The 9-meter-high entryway is adorned with a smoke-inspired pendant light that evokes drifting mountain mist. Organic curves drawn from the language of the land extend across the staircase, custom sofa, and poolside lounge, weaving a rhythmic flow between indoor and outdoor spaces.

The living and dining areas are guided by hand-sketched arcs that flow toward a rippling water-inspired chandelier above the dining table—resembling light shimmering across a pond. The master bedroom layers warm materials and soft lighting to create a serene, secretive retreat reminiscent of a mountainside hideaway. In the main bathroom, dual curved lines shape both wall and counter, echoing the textures of a canyon landscape. A black stone tub sits quietly at the center like a still mountain pool, a space for emotional stillness and restoration.

More than a residence, Echo Villa is also a curated home of living art. Over 20 European artists contributed custom-designed furniture and objects, infusing the home with soul. Art and function are interwoven into the rhythm of daily life, forming a quiet resonance with the owner’s personal philosophy.
