Medical research has shown that connecting with nature can significantly enhance our well-being. Therefore, this project aims to conduct an experiment on naturalistic living, to integrate this positive connection into daily life. By increasing the frequency of connection with nature, the goal is to foster a stronger bond with the natural world, promoting a healthier, more peaceful, and sustainable lifestyle for the residents.

Innovation:
The design seamlessly incorporates natural elements into living spaces by applying a large area of natural-textured finishes. This approach creates an overall pure and natural ambiance, offering residents a more immersive experience with the natural world. By constructing media-like spaces and blurring boundaries, the design creates living scenes that foster a sense of fusion and connection, allowing for diverse life experiences.

Creativity:
The living space is surrounded by four gardens, each featuring a distinct touch of nature. Life activities are influenced by nature, creating a tranquil and comfortable living environment.

In children's activity area, a playful slide is incorporated to inspire creativity and energy in the kids, allowing pure joy and innocence to be fully expressed within the space.

Functionality:
The design takes into account the daily activities and living needs of the family. The living room is designed to be spacious and comfortable, providing ample activity areas for children so that they can freely run, jump or perform other activities at home. Sufficient storage function to efficiently store children's toys, books and other daily necessities, keeping the space tidy and orderly.

In the children's room, ample natural light is introduced, promoting healthy vision and overall well-being of children. The use of bright accent colors adds a playful and energetic atmosphere to the space, creating a positive and pleasant environment for growth.

Sustainability:
The design incorporates natural-textured materials and extensive transparent facades, to seamlessly integrate outdoor landscapes into the interior space. This approach not only maximizes daylighting, but also allows for changing seasonal views, thereby enhancing the overall environmental quality and comfort within the space. Furthermore, the design emphasizes the growing status of materials and evolution of design elements in the home, accentuating a sustainable lifestyle that progresses over time.
