Ink Play: A Calligraphy Lover's Dream Home

A Celebration of Art and Tradition in Residential Living

The family’s love of calligraphy is central to the artistic ambience of the home. Traditional xuan paper designs dramatically cover the main ceiling and walls in the dining and living room areas while Chinese calligraphy blossoms with exquisite light pink plum flowers, simple white furniture and natural textures.

Introducing Ink Play, a stunning residential living area designed by the talented Samson Wong. This unique space is a celebration of art, tradition, and the beauty of calligraphy. With its striking design and attention to detail, Ink Play offers a one-of-a-kind living experience for calligraphy aficionados.

What sets Ink Play apart is its innovative use of color and texture. Colours are mixed in with splashes of ink, creating an ultra-modern 3D freehand brushwork that brings the calligraphy to life. The giant over-10-metre scroll, meticulously crafted, serves as a reminder of inner strength and the lofty demeanor of ancient scholars.

Light troughs play a crucial role in the design, serving as both the key light and dark frame of the drawing. They cast a gentle glow all over the bold design, creating a harmonious and captivating atmosphere. The result is a space that not only showcases the beauty of calligraphy but also envelops residents in a sense of tranquility and inspiration.

Living in Ink Play is truly a calligraphy lover's dream come true. The design celebrates the vitality of life, the profound essence of qi, and the hope for regeneration. It is a space where art and living seamlessly merge, creating an environment that nurtures creativity and appreciation for the beauty of the written word.

In recognition of its exceptional design, Ink Play was awarded the Bronze A' Design Award in 2017 in the Interior Space, Retail, and Exhibition Design category. This prestigious award is bestowed upon designs that exhibit outstanding creativity, resourcefulness, and technical skill. Ink Play's incorporation of art, science, design, and technology showcases its commitment to improving quality of life and making the world a better place.

Step into Ink Play and immerse yourself in a world where calligraphy takes center stage. Experience the beauty, elegance, and serenity that this unique design offers. It is a testament to the power of art and design to transform spaces and inspire the human spirit.
