In the broadest sense, "space" generally refers to the range of existence and motion of objects, the three-dimensional range occupied by matter.
In daily life, we usually use "space" to describe a location, area, place, or scope, including physical space, interior space, architectural space, etc.
Next, three common space design techniques will be introduced:
1. Perspective Perspective is a spatial design technique that creates a visual connection and sense of flow between different spaces by creating transparent or translucent elements.
The design technique of perspective can be used in indoor and outdoor spaces, which can increase the sense of openness and visual depth of the space, and at the same time enhance the beauty and comfort of the space.
In interior space design, perspective techniques are often used in the following aspects:
Glass partition: Using glass or glass bricks as a partition material can maintain a visual connection between different areas and increase the sense of transparency. For example, using a glass partition to separate the kitchen from the dining room allows the activities in the kitchen to echo the dining scene in the restaurant.
Glassdoor: The use of glass doors at the entrance of the room allows people to have a glimpse of the interior of the room while entering the room, creating an open and transparent feeling.
Glass cabinets: Use glass cabinets in the kitchen or living room to display utensils and furnishings, so that the internal items can be displayed through the glass, increasing the three-dimensional and layered sense of space.
Mirror effect: The use of mirrors in appropriate positions can make the space visually extend, increase the perceived area of the space, and reflect the scenes of other spaces, further enhancing the perspective effect.
Open bookshelves: Use open bookshelves in your study or living room not only to display books and decorations but also to allow light to filter through the bookshelves, making the space brighter and more airy.
The perspective design technique can make the space show the characteristics of transparency, lightness, and flow, and bring a comfortable and pleasant living experience to the occupants. At the same time, the perspective also helps to organically connect different functional areas, improving the overall spatial fluency and aesthetics.
2. Borrowing scenery
"Borrowing scenery" is a common space design method, which integrates the external landscape into the indoor or outdoor space by using the natural or artificial landscape of the surrounding environment, thereby increasing the landscape value and beauty of the space.
In space design, the method of borrowing scenery usually has the following applications:
Borrowing scenery from natural landscapes: Utilize the beautiful scenery in the natural environment, such as lakes, mountains, forests, etc., and introduce this beautiful scenery indoors by designing large-scale floor-to-ceiling windows, balconies or terraces, so that the occupants can enjoy the external natural scenery indoors and increase the living space.
Urban landscape borrowing: For spaces located in the city center or high-rise buildings, urban skylines, rivers, parks, and other urban landscapes can be used to design open viewing areas or high viewing windows for residents or users to enjoy the beauty and prosperity of the city.
Courtyard landscape borrowing: For residential courtyards or gardens, you can use the beauty of the surrounding environment, such as trees, flowers, green belts, etc., to integrate the external landscape with the courtyard through layout and landscape design to create a pleasant living environment.
Borrowing scenery from art installations: In the indoor space, art installations or decorations can be set up to reflect or highlight the external landscape and enhance the landscape effect of the space. For example, set a large mirror in the dining room or living room to reflect the beautiful scenery outside the window and make the space more open and bright.
Through the method of borrowing scenery, designers can integrate natural or artificial landscapes with space, so that the overall space presents a richer and more vivid visual experience, and brings joy and comfort to the occupants or users. At the same time, borrowing scenery also helps to closely connect the indoor and outdoor environments, creating a more coherent and harmonious design effect.
3. Under the guise of scenery
It uses virtual or creative means to create a simulated landscape effect in indoor or outdoor spaces, making people feel as if they are really in a specific natural or artificial landscape.
The design technique of borrowing scenery is common in the following aspects:
Mural or Wall Sticker: Use the mural or wall sticker technique to draw natural landscapes with perspective effects, such as mountains, forests, lakes, etc., on the interior walls or ceilings. This can add depth and three-dimensionality to the space, creating an immersive feeling.
Virtual landscape projection: With the help of projection technology, a virtual landscape effect is projected on the indoor wall or ground. For example, in commercial spaces or exhibitions, projectors can be used to project scenes such as oceans and starry skies to create a fantasy atmosphere.
3D stereoscopic landscape: use 3D technology to place realistic landscape models or images in the indoor space, making people feel as if they are in a real environment.
The design method of borrowing scenery adds a unique sense of art and creativity to the space and can create colorful landscape effects in a limited space. At the same time, it also brings people an immersive feeling, which increases the fun and attraction of the space.
The continuous development of borrowing technology has brought more possibilities to space design, enabling designers to better meet people's yearning and expectations for a beautiful environment.
