Residential project / Ningbo, China

Four levels, one continuous language.

Four original level plans and ten selected photographs reveal a multi-level home through its living room, dining edge, stair and quieter private storage. The drawings remain in their original form, with English room guides beside them. Photo-to-plan links are made only where the broad layout supports them.

01 / Plans and photographs

Read the original drawings.

These four original drawings describe different levels of one residence. The walls, dimensions and Chinese room labels are unchanged. The first-floor living–stair–dining relationship is broadly consistent with the wide photograph; the other photos are not forced onto a room or floor without evidence.

The plans are original project drawings, not construction documents for a new project. Use the original measurements only to read this project; commission a fresh site survey and cabinet elevations for any new brief. No home address or resident name is published.

Original basement plan
Original basement drawing, preserved with its Chinese room labels and dimensions. The English guide describes storage, tea preparation, a flexible sitting area and an internal court.
Original mezzanine plan
Original mezzanine drawing, preserved with its Chinese room labels and dimensions. The English guide identifies the stair, storage, bathroom, games room and garage.
Original first-floor plan
Original first-floor drawing, preserved with its Chinese room labels and dimensions. The English guide locates living, dining, kitchen and the shared circulation spine.
Original second-floor plan
Original second-floor drawing, preserved with its Chinese room labels and dimensions. The English guide identifies bedrooms, study and dressing/storage zones around the stair.

English room guide

The original plans identify basement storage and a flexible sitting room, mezzanine storage and games area, first-floor living, dining and kitchen, and second-floor bedrooms, study and dressing zones. The selected photographs show some of these room types but do not establish the exact floor or camera position of every view.

The original drawing geometry and dimension notes remain traceable. Open each image to inspect it alongside the English guide. These archive drawings are not issued for construction.

02 / Evidence and decisions

Read the evidence together.

What can be matched to the first-floor plan?

Look for in the photographs
The wide image shows dining, stair edge and living seating in one continuous view, consistent with the first-floor drawing at a broad spatial level.

Carry into a new brief
Ask for your own measured plan and key sightlines before adapting the cabinet or wall arrangement; do not reuse historical dimensions.

How does storage meet the stair?

Look for in the photographs
The photographs show open display and closed wall fields beside a balustrade and stair; the plans repeat the stair core across levels.

Carry into a new brief
Resolve access, fall protection, fixing and material transitions with the actual site team rather than treating the photograph as a construction detail.

Which private rooms need different storage?

Look for in the photographs
Bedroom views show a quiet wall treatment, bedside storage and a small open niche, while the upper drawing labels study and dressing zones.

Carry into a new brief
Make a separate contents list, elevations and lighting decision for each real room; no source image proves the exact level of a particular bedroom.

The comparison reads photographs and drawings from the same project. It is a design reference, not a measured survey for a new site.

03 / Room and detail

The public floor reads across one view.

A single wide frame takes in the dining setting, kitchen edge, stair and living room. The first-floor drawing supports that broad grouping but does not prove a measured camera position. The living-room wall uses a quiet panel field around a recessed screen and low shelf; the dining view brings the stair into the same visual language. A buyer can use this to brief long sightlines before choosing isolated door finishes.

Living room wall and seating
The living-room wall has a recessed screen, low shelf and pale paneled surround beside the seating group.
Dining space beside the stair
The dining setting sits close to the stair railing and reads as part of the shared public floor.
Living-room cabinet and wall detail
A low patterned cabinet and small open display are seen against a pale wall surface.
04 / Room and detail

Display and circulation meet at the stair.

The open shelves, balustrade and stair-side wall appear together in the source sequence. Close photographs reveal their visual relationship, not the hidden fixings or material specification. The four drawings show the stair recurring through the levels; actual stair safety and cabinet attachment need project-specific engineering and site checks.

Stair and display storage
Open shelves stand beside the gold-colored stair railing; the image is a visual detail, not a construction section.
Stair railing and tread close view
A closer view shows the balustrade and stair finish without establishing the material grade or fixing system.
Stair wall and upper landing detail
The stair-side wall treatment continues upward; the exact floor level of this camera position is not proven.
05 / Room and detail

Private storage becomes quieter.

Bedroom and private-room photographs move from an expressive public stair to a calmer wall, compact bedside cabinet and one illuminated open niche. The second-floor drawing labels bedrooms, study and dressing zones, but the individual photographs cannot be assigned confidently to specific labels. An actual cabinetry brief should distinguish clothing, display and bedside use room by room.

Bedroom wall and bedside cabinet
A textured wall field sits above the bed, with a compact cabinet at the side.
Closed and open bedroom storage
A closed cabinet face is interrupted by an illuminated open niche near the seating area.
Private-room seating and low storage
A small chair and low cabinet show a quieter storage relationship in a private room.
