Sot Space, Taste of Life

Nowadays people begin to pay more and more

attention to residential interior design, which

clearly indicates the increasing importance of our

home living quality.

than not, home decoration is treated in an unpro-

fessional way. It is harmful, instead of helpful, to

the aesthetic “hardware” an interior designer has

created, and even will visually disturb the entire

space. A situation a designer often encounters

is that he spares no effort in creating an enjoy-

able living space, and gives it to the client who

relentlessly destroys it with farfetched soft deco-

ration. Hence we say the re-establishment of

clients’ taste is a rather practical problem. The

client should have due respect to the expertise of

designers, and believe in and take their advice,

in order to have a harmonious environment at

home. However, that’s not something a designer

could completely control – after all, he won’t be

involved in the client’s life after completing the

“hardware” of the house. In this sense, I think the

re-creation of aesthetics with soft decoration is

the real challenge in home interior design.

accomplishment as well. I’m glad to see the book

with such a collection of beautiful home interior

projects, because for both professional designers

and laymen who are willing to improve their living

quality, it would be an inspiring and valuable ref-

erence. All in all, I hope everyone could ind his

paradise when returning home everyday.

Good circulation and aesthetic “interior hardware”

are indispensable for comfortable home spaces.

A good circulation design will help create a warm

ambience, and a piece of artistic “hardware” will

welcome you home everyday with a delightful

mood.

However, in home interior design there’s some-

thing that is often ignored, or even unprofession-

ally treated. That is decoration, or the popularly

so-called “soft decoration”. Soft decoration usu-

ally involves visual, tactile and sometimes olfac-

tory senses.

A good soft decoration will not only complement

the “hardware” of an interior in terms of diversity

and comfort, but also reveal the taste and per-

sonality of the master. Unfortunately, more often

Sot Decoration: A Lifestyle

The ever-changing life brings differences to men,

men’s aesthetic appreciation and then the style of

home design. In this sense, there is no everlasting

design. Design is life and the designing process is

a life experience, therefore design should undergo

continuous improvement and development as life

changes. In soft home design, it is unavailing to strive

to make a project a perpetual classic work. Only by

regarding soft decoration as a part of the soft space and

the taste of life with fewer utilitarian purposes can one

truly approach design and life themselves.

Life is not only an experience but a process of the

accumulation of beauty. To understand the essence of

life, one must know clearly what is you want. Everyone

has his or her own life, thus the comprehension, dream

and pursuit of beauty differ individually, a phenomenon

also occurs in the regard of interior design: the

requirement and aspiration for home decoration design

vary from each other. In home decorative design, one

needs to pay attention to so many aspects to achieve

the amalgamation of decoration and life: the kind of

ambience people want, the ways in which the design

can win people’s satisfaction and whether the designer

is confident enough to put his decorative idea into

practice.

Nowadays, soft home decoration, as an independent

design category, has attracted more and more attention

from people. The number of design corporations and

designers engaged in soft decoration is increasing

continuously. However, a large amount of superficial

design can still be seen in most design cases, which

looks so farfetched and affected just like the artificial

expression. Such kind of design simply focuses on

the external changes of the interior space without any

attention to the virtual and spiritual ones. It is just

the outer form of soft decoration lacking the spiritual

exploration.

We believe that fine soft decoration design should

at least be endowed with such qualities as to meet

the functional requirements of space, express beauty

and its understanding of beauty in the aesthetic

ambience and serve as a shocking power emitting art

and elegance. Nevertheless, these are not enough, as

the excellent design can both highlight the identity of

the client and express its understanding of life. The

precious metal, advanced furniture and rare material

may not be applied in all soft home decoration but

they are the necessary components of luxury space. The

problem about how these can be achieved in effective

means must be solved in soft home design. Good

design must also walk into the inner world of human

beings by carefully studying their eagerness for space.

It is the home decoration which combines the unique

definition of home design, men’s feelings, demands,

aspirations and dreams, variations and endurance

into the space, regarding it as an element of human

beings, can roll space and men into one and then fill

the habitants’ inner hearts with a sense of belonging

and happiness. However, it is difficult to amalgamate

men and the space just as there is always a single-step

distance between aspirations and realities. The real

difficulty of design lies in how to put ideas into practice

and how to accomplish it besides the conception and

inspiration of design.
